[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
These motherfuckers don't know
These motherfuckers don't know, yeah

[Verse 1]
The tracklist filled up with so many mistakes, can't believe I'm alive
Will you be a saint or a sinner? Whatever you want, you decide
All day I been faded, all day I been faded, but fuck it, I drive
Now I'm in a Mercedes, the pills made me crazy, today I could die
Fall asleep in the pussy, wake up to the money, my life a cliché
I think I deserve a promotion, I think I'ma need me a raise
Tell these motherfuckers, "Keep playin'"
'Cause me, I created the game though
Stack my money and lay low, they can't fuck with my bankroll

[Chorus]
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
I been a real one, yeah, I been a real one

[Open Verse]

[Verse 2]
Yeah (Okay, okay, okay, okay), yeah
I get up with the sun, only sleep for a minute
Then back to the grind (Woo)
They party and bullshit, get wasted, I done it
Ain't wastin' my time (No, no)
I'm faded, my eyes low, so no reason to hide that I'm blatantly high
Bitches been trippin' since in the beginnin'
Don't listen every time they tellin' me lies, oh no (Oh, no)
All I ever wanted was to be somebody special
Couple diamonds dancin' on the dental
Cap in mind, don't mind though by the elbow, yeah, you know
Know you poppin' when you make a million dollars on the cellphone (Huh?)
Money been a manifesto, said, the money been a manifesto, yeah
I'm up like espresso, the bitches say, "Hello"
I'm outta the friendzone (Woo)
I rode with the homies, where ever we go
We don't follow no dress code (Nah)
And I'm still young, gettin' faded to feel numb

[Chorus]
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah (Woo)
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
Tell everyone that you know, all my life I been a real one, yeah
I been a real one, yeah, I been a real one

[Outro]
Metro Boomin want some more, nigga

Mac Miller

Malcolm James McCormick (Jan. 19, 1992 – Sept. 7, 2018), who performed as Mac Miller, was an American rapper and producer from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Since releasing his first mixtape at just 15 years old, he became one of the leaders of the new school of young and highly talented “weirdos.”

Mac’s credibility in the rap game increased ten-fold and resulted in a slew of quality releases, including 2012’s Macadelic mixtape, his second studio album Watching Movies With The Sound Off, and his critically-acclaimed 2014 mixtape Faces.

He had multiple alter-egos, most notably his producer alias Larry Fisherman and his sick and twisted pitched-up persona (à la Quasimoto,) Delusional Thomas.
