[Verse 1: Silas] Real fake, real fake You would think - opposites don't go together But they attract, that's the fact of the matter Or whatever, this is my letter to the better Couldn't settle it together, so it just goes on forever And forever-ever, another step on this endless ladder No matter the weather, he's a real go-getter Wants to be a trendsetter, hopes one day it gets better So he puts it all on the line - 'Cause he got nothing to lose, lost touch with his own self Driven by all the make-believe and the fake wealth Hypocrisy, to be or not to be Wrong ideals, why can't you see? Maybe he sees but doesn't give a damn “True to myself? Who could understand Who I really am and who I really want to be It's easier to pretend than to be free" [Hook: Silas] So you're telling me this is all real, this is how you feel This is who you are, this the real deal? This is all you, no false pretense Or is it just the means to an end? But let me tell you I can see right through you This is why you'll never be at peace, whatever you do So turn around now, before it's too late 'Cause you're not real, but real fake [Verse 2: B.g. Bene] Real fake, real fake What's the key to being really real Yeah you already know, but you don't Too many pictures in your head, you weren't made in one image Influence influctuated this sentence 'Cause you can't take yourself for who you are Your friends say they dig your style, but it ain't who you are You say to yourself your ceiling is limited ‘Cause you're already thinking that you're Sleeping in the upper bunk bed But you ain't above none, you're just a low life dude Your actions don't live up to your words You just open your mouth, at the wrong time, at the wrong moment Nowadays peer pressure ain't no pressure no more It's a cool thing, making impressions 'Cause they impress your brain, implemented with compliments This society cost you your brain like [Hook] [Verse 3: B.g. Bene & Silas] [B.g. Bene] Differentiation, indifference how come that I beg to differ, cause me and you See yeah, we ain't on the same page So let's just cut to the chase You try to chase this feeling, put a bee in your bonnet And it just keeps on swirling 'til your twirling Now I'm whirling can't you tell that words are burning Now the tide has turned in our favor So why won't you just shut it for a minute, playa? [Silas] Fake realness - real fakeness Stop being a fraud, I can't take this Yeah I get it, we all wanna be accepted But what price do we pay just to be neglected? 'Cause they never truly take us as we are If we have to be someone else to be a part Of their society, their own little world Stay true to yourself, even if it hurts Yeah, you just gotta stay true 'Cause there comes a day, it'll all be worth it I promise man, so just hold on - and be you! [Hook] [Outro: Silas] Real fake So turn around now before it's too late 'Cause you're not real, but real fake
