When I was 15 they said Get on dat real shit Stop rappin’ 'bout the moon there ain't no room for that Neil shit They just assume that I'm in my room With posters of galaxies and that's why I'm closer to fantasy Nah brotha It wasn't spaceships I heard Only screams of her Her meanin’ my mother father was slurrin’ his words So when I wrote words like space It's metaphor for safe and stars are better places Get it Both of my parents didn't The language barriers kept them from knowing anything about me All the things that I'd tell them would sound American I sell them so why would they ever doubt me I will continue my journey until my late teens An out of body experience I would take 3 Sniffin’ smokin’ havin’ myself a space dream Feelin’ alone can't connect to all of these earthlings What's a man without his word If we ain't got a bond then what's it all worth I can tell you the truth but damn the truth hurts As long as I'm livin’ Imma give you my word Word If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it What's a man without his word When I turned 20 they told me Get on dat hard shit We don't want to hear about all of dat broken heart shit Money over bitches is all I heard heard falling in love was only for herbs herbs So I spit about stealin’ your girl and how she want me Way I'm beatin’ dat pussy up soundin’ hella thirsty Then it occurred that it ain't her dat I wanted But the validation of all of my G's on the curb All dat shit dat I rapped about My dad he had acted out The secret women dat prevented us from a happy house As long as it was catchy I turned it into a chorus Pretendin’ dat my momma and sister would just ignore it So I yelled bitches bitches bitches Words becomin’ contradictions 'dictions 'dictions Now I can't label it a fiction It's sounded too convincin’ It is what it is when you say it with conviction What's a man without his word If we ain't got a bond then what's it all worth I can tell you the truth but damn the truth hurts As long as I'm livin’ Imma give you my word Word If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it If I said I meant it and Imma do it do it What's a man without his word They find real life borin’ Fantasy is corny Afraid of explorin’ need someone to do it for 'em Fake shit do sound real when it's recorded So that fake shit sells to this country every mornin’ And the real shit fails and gets put inside for storage But the real will prevail when the country's in mournin’ Word When you don't mean it you say Word Word All it's become is just a four letter word What's a man without his word If we ain't got a bond then what's it all worth I can tell you the truth but damn the truth hurts As long as I'm livin’ Ima give you my word Word What's a man without his word
