Lyrics

Woke up cold sweatin’, Glock loaded, phone ringin’ (brrt)
Cuz said they caught him slippin’, thought that boy was really swingin’ (nah)
Used to share scraps, dreams hotter than the kitchen (flame)
Now it’s black suits, cold dirt, church cryin’, preacher twitchin’ (preach)

Mama said, “Trust’ll cost more than ya casket” (facts)
Had to bleed just to learn it, now my heart move savage (stone)
Caught my dog switchin’, fat pockets, fake laughin’ (snake)
Smile in your grill, but that blade stay flashin’ (cut)

Remember nights in the whip, no gas, just fumes (ghosts)
Lit blunt after blunt just to drown out the doom (smoke)
Same rats I fed went and whispered to the goons (rats)
Now it’s steel on my lap when I ride through the gloom (skrrt)

⸻

[Chorus]
Real ones hard to find, diggin’ graves in the dirt (grave digger)
Tryna mine for some gold, all I struck was the hurt (pain)
Put my blood in the game, they just printed the shirts (merch boys)
Now my heart locked tight, and my demons on alert (bang)

Real ones rare like a crown in the soil (crown)
Had to cut dead ties, let the past turn spoil (rot)
Mind slick like oil, heart heavy like coils (iron)
If you stand in the fire, then you know you royal (for real)

⸻

[Verse 2]
Lost my brother to the streets, lost my lover to the bottle (damn)
Lost myself to the weight, tryin’ full-throttle (crash)
Wrote sins in blood, tossed ‘em straight in the squall (storm)
Hoping God find ‘em floatin’ like a ghost ship call (lost)

Built walls like a prison, steel bars in my chest (steel)
Be real, they knife you — be fake, they throw a vest (bet)
I was searchin’ for a soul, they was poppin’ for a check (pills)
I was reachin’ out bridges, they was settin’ up wrecks (wrecks)

I ain’t bitter, just built different — ice in my stare (cold)
Ain’t no love in a grin when there’s poison in the air (nah)
Packed light on trust, heavy on despair
Had to pray with a pistol and a heart full of prayers (click)

⸻

[Chorus]
Real ones hard to find, diggin’ graves in the dirt (grave digger)
Tryna mine for some gold, all I struck was the hurt (pain)
Put my blood in the game, they just printed the shirts (merch boys)
Now my heart locked tight, and my demons on alert (on go)

Real ones rare like a crown in the soil (rare)
Had to cut dead ties, let the memories spoil (cut)
Mind slick like oil, heart heavy like coils (steel)
If you stand in the fire, then you know you royal (royalty)
