Realest shit I wrote (Doin' life) Realest shit I wrote (We doin' life) Realest shit I wrote This be the realest shit I wrote Realest shit I wrote Realest shit I wrote Be the realest shit I wrote (Doin' life), yeah For all my niggas doin' life with they day one Who held it down when the credit wasn't A1? You thankin' God, you was lookin' for a great one He took a rib out your chest and He made one To be a man and hold it down, take a brave one When the hoes come around and you crave somethin' My flow switch, slow the pace, this the Ma$e one I'm not a player but I'm crushin' like the late Pun Let's take one, go The definition of rider The one by my side when I had not a dollar to my name Before a crowd would holler for Jermaine, you saw potential Waitin' on you to hit my line was suspenseful Back when we was kids, this was simple Boy likes girl, girl got a man Boy stays in lane, maybe provides a friend Knowin' by the end buddy gon' fumble Was far from the toughest around, buddy gon' rumble When necessary, when niggas started talkin' reckless Did he not step to them niggas with chest poked out? Over you, that 'Ville come out, no doubt We fell in love, but my dreams you ain't know 'bout You knew I rap, but, you ain't know 'bout both of my goals Wanna take over the globe through a mic' And one day me and you be doin' life All types of games are being played, how's it goin' down? (Yeah) It's on 'til it's gone and I gots to know now (Yeah) Is you with me or what? A nigga really think he in love (Uh-huh) I put this ring on you forever, what's up?

(We doin' life) Uh, the puppy love had grown and now it's full blown Since childhood, I vowed to have a good home White picket fence with wife cookin' Yellow rice for a couple kids that's nice lookin' And I promise to treat her right Unlike what I had seen in my life as examples, marriages in shambles And I can tell I found a real one Smart, loyal, and real pretty, we can build somethin' But first, I got work to do So when I'm spendin' nights locked in on that mic', please, don't take it personal My skills is growin', the flows more versatile My name's ringin' and on the evenin', I heard the news I'm gettin' a deal, the first one I called was you Even though we been off-and-on a few years And through tears on rainy nights that you would wipe I always knew that we'd be doin' life All types of games are being played, how's it goin' down?

A nigga really think he in love (Uh-huh) I put this ring on you forever, what's up? (We doin' life) The temptation of other lovers is a hard one To overcome when you're young and your star's done A line that women that wouldn't give you time is callin' you fine Lust creeps all through your mind, I'm tryin' my hardest To remember why I'm an artist Is it for bitches and the riches? You all suspicious, and you should be I'm doin' dirt, but it's not as much as I could be That make me feel better I'm driftin' away slowly, that make you feel bitter The Devil on my shoulder tellin' me, "Quit her" Angel on the opposite side sayin, "Stick with her" God tellin' me pick whichever is in my heart Looked inside myself to a place beyond thought And found out who I want to be Slowly, but surely he cut off his hoes If you gon' do it, do it right Put ring on your finger, now, me and you is doin' life All types of games are being played, how's it goin' down? (Yeah) It's on 'til it's gone and I gots to know now (Yeah) Is you with me or what? A nigga really think he in love (Uh-huh) I put this ring on you forever, what's up? All types of games are being played, how's it goin' down? (Yeah) It's on 'til it's gone and I gots to know now (Yeah) Is you with me or what? A nigga really think he in love (Uh-huh) I put this ring on you forever, what's up? (We doin' life) I done wrote a lot of songs, but this is gotta be my realest one Shoutout to anybody that really know what it's like to do life with somebody Through the ups, the downs, the goods, the bads, through thick and thin In a time where they make it so easy to just give up Know what I mean?
