The Real
Unveiling the Depths: Rico Savage's Revelations on Friendship and Betrayal
Lyrics
Who need a friend if they leave you in the end
Questioning the value of friends who ultimately betray.
My best friends only leave me when I spend them
Noteworthy friends only leave when money is spent on them.
They hit your line only
Contacts are made only when they need something.
When they need sum
People reach out when they require something.
When they really see sum
Realization that people only notice achievements or success.
That's how these niggas be huh
Observation on the behavior of certain individuals.
I'm quoting Drizzy from when he was in the booth
Referencing Drake's lyrics, suggesting authenticity in expression.
They only down when they down that's truth
True support is only present during difficult times.
They see you up
Recognition when one is doing well attracts attention.
That's really when they gon lock in
People only show genuine interest when success is evident.
Tell me why they always tryna count your pockets
Criticism of those who are overly concerned with others' wealth.
Be careful of the ones who claim that they the realist
Warning about individuals claiming to be the most genuine.
Cuz they gon let you stack that bread then try to steal it
Caution against those who may pretend to be close but aim to deceive.
I stack my bread to the 6th degree
Accumulation of wealth to a significant extent.
That's exponential growth baby can't you see
Highlighting exponential growth and success.
I can't hang around cuz they get it like me
Avoiding association with those who imitate success.
They blood boiling like a tea pot I see the steam
Noticing envy and resentment in others.
The real ones they ain't ever got to say it
True authenticity doesn't need verbal affirmation.
And the ones that do psh always be the fakest
People who claim authenticity often lack it.
On some hate shit
Reference to negative behavior and jealousy.
They two faced
Warning about two-faced individuals.
You call em out my nigga they can't face it
Confrontation with those who can't handle the truth.
And for the ones that snitching like they tray way
Criticism of informers, using "tray way" as an example.
We gon take em out that's the JKF way
Asserting consequences for betrayal, alluding to JFK's fate.
Yo Savage how you find the realest
Addressing the question of finding genuine individuals.
Go ahead sit down I'll tell you just what the deal is
Sharing insights on identifying true friends.
Go around and tell em all that your broke
Suggesting a strategy to test friends by pretending to be broke.
Then take note to those who think that it's a joke
Noting reactions of those who treat the situation as a joke.
Cuz they the ones that always tryna boast
Pointing out those who boast and show off.
The ones that love materials the most
Criticism of materialistic individuals.
And if they can they gon rock the boat
Warning about those who may disrupt stability.
Shoot either way they the ones to gloat
Indicating arrogance and self-praise.
They never around when they know that your low
Absence of support during difficult times.
And when you got nothing the ones that hit the road
Those who leave when there's nothing to gain.
Cuz all they wanna do is ride the wave
Critique of opportunistic individuals.
They hide their ways
Hidden deceit in their actions.
Man they all two faced
Reiteration of duplicity in character.
When it's time to eat you don't get a seat or a plate
No recognition or support when it's time to succeed.
You can ride for them but they don't ride the same
Discrepancy in loyalty and support.
Back stabbing on they quest for fame
Warning against betrayal in the pursuit of fame.
Why teach em the game if they don't mention your name
Questioning the purpose of teaching if not acknowledged.
School of hard knocks yeah that's my college
Life experiences as the true teacher.
These so called thugs they pay no homage
Disdain for those claiming toughness but not showing respect.
Why should I even spit this knowledge
Questioning the value of sharing wisdom.
Keep it to myself like I'm holding it hostage
Choosing to keep valuable knowledge to oneself.
