In Swae Lee’s single ‘Reality Check’ which originally surfaced as a snippet shown in an Instagram live stream back in December 2019, he tells a tale of how his success, cars, money, women, and more have impacted his life.
[Intro]
Yeah, damn
This shit is too relevant (Ayy)
And it's always going to be relevant
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Ayy)
I gotta go in the atmosphere
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me
Hey, yuh
[Chorus]
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me (Ayy)
Ridin' the cars, spread the wings (Yeah)
I gotta go in the atmosphere
I expect less from these people when I'm in position don't depend on me
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me (No-no)
When I didn't have it, I actually sat and I had to imagine it (Yeah)
Don't touch my seat settings and I'll let you know when I'm ready to leave (Leave)
[Verse 1]
Do everything with a strategy, my women come from academies
My bitches come out of fantasies, they forbidden fruit like it's Adam and Eve (Yeah)
Spending money at the Galleria, stripper dancing like a ballerina (Yeah)
Niggas hating, lowkey wanna be us
Melatonin how I put her to sleep, good drank and it put me to sleep
At the top, it's a long drop, gotta jump out and leap
I gotta go get me the pesos, each and every day of the week
And I'm gonna ball, never catch me in the bleachers
[Chorus]
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me (Ayy)
Ridin' the cars, spread the wings (Yeah)
I gotta go in the atmosphere
I expect less from these people when I'm in position don't depend on me
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure that she ain't doin' better than me (No-no)
When I didn't have it, I actually sat and I had to imagine it (Yeah)
Don't touch my seat settings and I'll let you know when I'm ready to leave (Leave)
[Verse 2]
Yeah, ooh, yeah, ooh (Hey)
I'll see you whenever I see you
Fuck you, see you, wouldn't wanna be you (Yo)
Took some time, turned 'em to some believers
All the cash in the bag, I need it
Spanish bitch call her "Catalina"
Pussy wet as Hurricane Katrina (Ayy)
[Chorus]
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me (Ayy)
Ridin' the cars, spread the wings (Yeah)
I gotta go in the atmosphere
I expect less from these people when I'm in position don't depend on me
Who needs a reality check? I got a check in reality (Yeah)
I gotta check on my ex to make sure she ain't doin' better than me (No-no)
When I didn't have it, I actually sat and I had to imagine it (Yeah)
Don't touch my seat settings and I'll let you know when I'm ready to leave (Leave)
Yeah
