Real Thing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm so sick of thinking, staying up at night
I don't wanna play around, that ain't on my mind
When I think about her face, these problems don't exist
But if I'm being honest with you
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm tired of that fantasy, I'm tired of the daydream
Tired of just waiting for sleep to see you
I know it's imaginary, but I think my mind is ready
Need to leave this sanctuary for something true
[Chorus]
I just want the real thing
I just want the real thing
[Verse 2]
I want all the fights, you know I want all the tears
I want all the conversations, tell me all your fears
'Cause I know that it's hard for you to trust
No one's ever given you enough
I might need to stop and give it up (Ayy)
[Pre-Chorus]
Tired of that fantasy, I'm tired of the daydream
Tired of just waiting for sleep to see you
I know it's imaginary, but I think my mind is ready
Need to leave this sanctuary for something true
[Chorus]
I just want the real thing (Oh)
I just want the real thing (Ooh)
I just want the real thing
(I don't wanna think, I don't wanna live in fantasy)
Real thing
(I just want you here, I just want you in reality)
[Bridge]
I just want the real thing
I just want the real thing, oh-oh
Ayy
[Chorus]
I just want the real, the real thing
(I don't wanna think, I don't wanna live in fantasy)
I just want the real thing
(I just want you here, I just want you in reality)
[Outro]
I just want you here, I just want you in reality
Oh, real thing
Oh
