Real Life Lyrics


{Smash you grilla, that's right, that's right
A hundred and ninety six million, nine hundred and forty thousand
Square miles on this planet, fresh outta New York, aye yo}
Aye yo Rollie, what's up son, Noodles had a problem
He called lucky hand slab saying niggas mobbed him
Max was on a outskirt trickin' in DC
Blaze had a shorty in his lab gettin' weed for free
That night I was in the cut alone zoned out
Suggest I rock a utility vest when I'm bonin' out
Yea you know it, Bobby told me before
Keep the heat by the side of the door
Ready for military war
Numerous cats, niggas is uterus, who this?
Claimin' that he looking for Louis Rich
Diamond a young king doing his thing
Big safes out in Beijing, aqua green thing
One connect had turned on him
God, shit got realer than a fuck

Crackers up state want him
Marshals came through the hood that night
Bagged my man chaz thirty two bags he copped flight
Now he upstate baggin' niggas, house and air maxs big axe
Won the Oscar award for crabbing niggaa now
All y'all niggas get to laugh now, who got the last laugh now?
Hit his stash house
It's called real life, y'all niggas betta see the light fast pa
Real life, it don't cost nothin' just to blast, real life
Lay down son you won't last
Real life, real life, real life
February tenth day on a Wednesday, it's like grimsday
Russian hats rocking it the Benz way
That day we got guns on us, Jakes want us
Playin' Einstein lenses and Auroras
Little meek caught us, couple of Francs peep the blue Taurus
What up tuck your chain they came for us
Jumped out, big nine an' some hard bottles
Eyes of hate finally meeting up with the stakes, it was
Who I thought it was two pair of Clarks, one pair of Lugz
With the hard bottom nigga with the snub
Cocked it, where rock at, stop that
Violate this cipher Pa we'll definitely strike back
All of us right there slight fear in our heart
Blink we take it right there doing our thing apart
Broad jumped out tryin' to run shit spoken loud words
All we want is his head, he did some dumb shit
Beef from Miami now, damn yo big head Lance in some wild shit
Noodles caught the stair down, now it came back to me yo
Handle it wise and brutally yo, put down your tool and talk like men
No shots rang yo, hittin' the ground like mangoes
Swiss cheese the thirty G Durango, few weeks later son seem 'em all
I mean 'em all
It's called real life, y'all niggas betta see the light fast pa
Real life, it don't cost nothin' just to blast, real life
Lay down son you won't last
Real life, real life, real life
It's called real life, y'all niggas betta see the light fast pa
Real life, it don't cost nothin' just to blast, real life
Lay down son you won't last
Real life, real life, real life

Corey Woods (born January 12, 1970) is an American rapper most well known as Raekwon (the Chef), one of the nine Wu-Tang Clan members. Raekwon joined Wu-Tang Clan, a hip hop group based in Staten Island, New York in 1992. When the time came for him to release his first solo album, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... (1995), hip-hop, once again, underwent a momentous transformation. The album moves from track to track like a film moves from scene to scene. With its invigorating instrumentals and dramatic lyrical tales, Raekwon painted vivid pictures and presented powerful imagery through his enchanting verbal expression.

Rae's groundbreaking debut album helped to bring the flavour of flossing to wax as well as the use of the moniker among Wu brethren and other prominent emcees. The single "Verbal Intercourse" featured the first appearance of Nas Escobar, Nas' alter ego. Similarly, Raekwon and Ghostface Killah, who served as Rae's partner in rhyme throughout the entire Cuban Linx album, also developed a slew of other identities. Identities like Lex Diamond, one of the flashy, witty and intellectually stimulating personas of the multifaceted Raekwon.

In the years after the release of Cuban Linx, Raekwon continued to record several albums with the Clan including the platinum Wu-Tang Forver (1997) and The W (2000), as well as the gold Iron Flag (2001). He also starred in the critically acclaimed film Black and White, before releasing his second solo album, Immobilarity in 1999. Four years later, it's time for another masterpiece from Raekwon.

The Lex Diamond Story, Raekwon's forthcoming third solo album is that desperately needed effort. This new LP is as much a reflection of his first musical triumph Cuban Linx, as it is a manifestation of the future and what is to come from this great emcee. Raekwon is like the E.F. Hutton of hip-hop: when he speaks, everyone listens. The current void in hip-hop is filled with this rap veteran's
crafty verbal gymnastics and artistic form of storytelling. The Lex Diamond Story takes the top shelf elements of the Wu's first album and the finest sentiments of Raekwon's debut and joins them together to deliver another classic album to the masses.

A lyrical gourmet meal, The Lex Diamond Story shows that The Chef still possesses the recipe to cook up a jambalaya of words with the main ingredient being superior skills. Animated and intense, Raekwon's stealth delivery is filled with emotion, skilled cadence and an array of diverse stories, hooks, and topics. The track, "All Over Again (The Way We Were)" touches on the flavour of "Can It Be All So Simple" with its tale of street survival. Meanwhile, "Pit Bull Fights" is reminiscent of the ferocious lyrical beating inflicted on "Incarcerated Scarfaces." Raekwon is indisputably at his creative beast. Unchained and uninhibited, he is assertive with his music and focused on his goals.
