[Verse 1: Lite]
CÎROC and lemonade mixed in my styrofoam
Trying to pinpoint the exact moment where I went wrong
Damn, I'm wasted
And my mind is racing
And frankly, my dear, I've gotten so tired of chasing
And my life is so out of place
And I can't make it fit
So my best solution is just to escape from it
So pour another drink
Give me a pill or two
'Cause I don't wanna think
Girl, I'd rather feel for you

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
What I feel, what I feel now
What is real? What is real now?
Am I still, am I here now?
If I'm still, will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?

[Verse 2: Jhené Aiko]
I can't afford more problems
I don't have time to solve them
Faking these smiles too often
I do not cry that often
I need to cry more often
Am I living, or dying, or
Finding something worth fighting for
I'm the only real I see
I'm the only real I see

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
What I feel, what I feel now
What is real? What is real now?
Am I still, am I here now?
If I'm still, will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?

[Verse 3: HOPE]
Good intentions, good intentions
Young, old soul
These my hood admissions
Searching heaven's admissions
In these streets we live in
The young raising the younger
We hunger for ears to listen, but I
Come in peace with peace and hair grease
Waves like Catalina
Problems you can't see
A soul full of problems
Eyes filled with glee
If you don't like being judged
Then you shouldn't judge me I never change

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
What I feel, what I feel now
What is real? What is real now?
Am I still, am I here now?
If I'm still, will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?
Will I feel now
What is real now?

[Verse 4: Roosevelt]
Wake me up if I'm dreaming, now
Get me out of this hazy cloud
Feeling like I'm free falling now
But I'm never gon' hit the ground
Gone through way too many ups and downs
Breaking free from these chains right now
Won't let nothing else hold me down
Letting go of it all, it all, it all

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]
What I feel (What I feel), what I feel now
What is real? (What is real, what is real?) What is real now? (What is real now?)
Am I still (Am I still, am I still), am I here now? (Am I here now?)
If I'm still (If I'm still), will I feel now
What is real now? (What is real now?)
Will I feel now (Will I feel now)
What is real now? (What is real now?)
Will I feel now (Will I feel now)
What is real now? (What is real now?)

Jhené Aiko Efuru Chilombo (born March 16, 1988) started her career under the moniker Jhené Aiko when she was 13 with the music group B2K. She explained how she later opted out of the deal to go back to high school and have her daughter Namiko in an interview back in July 2012 with Lozza

I was signed with Sony/EPIC when I was 12 years old and got a release from them when I was about 15 or 16 to focus on school. I started writing more and I had a child who’s now three years old.

After the failed release of her debut album, My Name Is Jhené back in 2003, Jhené released her debut mixtape, Sailing Soul(s) on March 16, 2011.
