Real Life - Maya B

My Louboutins new, but they’re really fake

Got them from a store in downtown LA

Out here with my crew, I don’t know their names

They’re my BFFs, met them Saturday

I can’t wear these jeans, wore them yesterday

Said I got them free, but I really paid

I spent $ 30 dollars just to flex valet

I don’t have a car, paid them anyway

In real life

All this shit you see ain’t happening in real life

Reality’s something everyone’s acting in

Feels like I’m paralyzd, looks like paradise

And I realizd it ain’t real life, no

I guess my story never really ends

Tons of followers, don’t mean they’re really friends

Hit delete on the scandalous shit you said

Say that to my face, say that shit again

Don’t make me have to reach inside the toolbox

Just wait 'til we pull up in the tour bus

Nothing really happens inside the tour bus

Nothing really happens when we pull up

In real life

All this shit you see ain’t happening in real life

Reality’s something everyone’s acting in

Feels like I’m paralyzed, looks like paradise

And I realized it ain’t real life, no

Everybody’s tryna be a motherfuckin' star

Everybody’s copying to set themselves apart

Truth is that you’re scared to take a shot into the dark

Truth is all they do is wear a mask and play a part

Then sometimes they put it on the 'gram, let people see

And they think that’s how they supposed to live, but not really

I’m not saying I’m not guilty of it, honestly

Sometimes I just miss the feeling of reality and real life

In real life

All this shit you see ain’t happening in real life

Reality’s something everyone’s acting in

Feels like I’m paralyzed, looks like paradise

And I realized it ain’t real life, no
