NF JOURNEY: REAL

Song: Real

Artist: NF 

UGH!!! 😡

Today SUCKED.

I've been in my head all day long and am currently freaking out about things that might happen tomorrow. The stress of not knowing is eating me up!! I had such a hard time falling asleep last night so I decided to sleep in and chose laziness (what's new??) and not work out and instead ate my feelings away and am now ending the night with two new zits on my chin and still all the stress and uncertainty about this weekend! 

Sorry. I had to vent. Had to keep things REAL, especially when sharing a song called REAL from the REALEST artist out there! 

I actually have heard this song before but it's been a long while. Let's give it a listen and review shall we...

GO OFF NF!! 🔥✊🙌 DANG BOY!! He's just showing off here! I forgot how GOOD this track is! It's nice to get one that's more just to be a banger of a track and not so emotional (especially after that last song 😭)... Like, let's get HYPED!! I NEEDED this today!! HE'S SPITTIN' FIRE TOO AND IT'S SOOOO SATISFYING AND FUN TO HEAR!! I'm gonna be listening to this one on REPEAT! I will say, after listening to this song I can see why he gets compared to Eminem...his aggressive, vicious and sort of cocky way of rapping reminds me of Monster. Which is one of two Eminem songs I actually know, hahaha. And that I like so it's a compliment. NF is literally just a superior Eminem (in my opinion) because he raps like a BEAST but with ALL CLEAN LYRICS AND CONTENT! It don't get better than that! 👏 Take notes rappers, you can be cool, talented AND clean while still dropping nasty beats! 

And let's not forget to mention that the music video is as crazy cool as always! NAILED IT! (Again ✋🎤).

Yeah, real music

Agh! Yo

Just get in that, you get in that head space, y'know? Woo!

Somebody get the body bags? We gon' put the beats in 'em, nah

Put the MCs in 'em, season 'em, put 'em on a beat with me, then I'm eatin' 'em

Get away from the table, you rappers ain't hungry enough, you rappers ain't hungry like us

They talk about me like I'm here, they talk about you like you was, woo!

That nurse came into my room, she told me I'm sick in the head

I'm in hip-hop's hospital bed, with a pad and a pen and a brace on my neck

They told me that I'm never leavin'

Why? I am as ill as it gets

Any rapper that say that they runnin' the game, I'ma come in they session and cut off they legs, woo!

Strap a grenade to my head, pull out the pin, my music is mind blowin'

Ain't nobody do it like I do it

You ain't never been on my level, I got a problem with the way

They keep on talkin', and actin' like everybody gonna get it

Better sleep with your eyes open

You wanna know what I noticed?

Look around at my fan base and they ready (I see you!)

That last album was heavy (I see you!)

That last album was gritty

How you gon' match that? Just let me–

Do what I do best, you're better off playin' Russian roulette

Than comin' in a booth with me 'cause I get a little bit intense, I'm like, "Who's next?"

Y'all better watch it, take a look at where the clock is

It's my time, this ladder of music that I climbed

I took the machete, the game isn't ready

Them rappers, they comin' up on me, I cut off the ladder, and I told 'em, "Bye-bye" (Bye-bye)

What, you lookin' for a high-five? Nice try! (Woo!)  😂👋

Do not believe everything that you read on the Internet

I do not know who your dentist is, but he should clean out your mouth  😂

Don't call me a sellout, that's something I've never been

I've been through Hell all my life though, but I know what Heaven is

Father, forgive me, for I am a sinner, but You gave me music as medicine, woo!  🔥🙌

And nobody want a problem when they get in my zone, better leave me be!

I'm a mean MC, better feed me rappers or feed me beats, agh!

Feed me both of 'em, they like, "Nate, what's it like to be famous?"

Hahahahahaha, umm, I'll let you know if I make it! (Yeah)  😂🔥

I wonder what life would be like if I didn't stick out my neck

Two hundred dollars inside of my bank account, woo! I was livin' on that

I need some money to pay for my rent, I need some money to pay for my gas

I'm not complainin', I'm just bein' honest, I promise that I will not beg for respect, nah!

I get so frustrated, take a look at what I've created

Time is wasting, and I ain't waiting

I'm a doctor with no job, me, I don't have no patience, I keep pacing–

Back and forth, I keep racing

You ain't never been in my book and I got a problem with it, why? 'Cause you actin' like you read my pages

I wreck these stages, real talk, better give me space 'cause I am chasing

Something they told me that I won't make it, agh!

I'm not famous, I'm just Nathan (Woo!)  👑 WE STAN A HUMBLE KING!

And I wonder how the world gon' take this

They might hate it, but you know anything about me, you know that don't mean I'm changin'

'Cause you know I'm real with it, don't care if you feelin' it, I'm feelin' it

You don't like it? Then deal with it

And if God ain't real, real isn't  🔥👊🙌 SPITTIN' STRAIGHT FACTS!

Used to wonder why I existed, I exist in the world that's real different

And, "What you gon' be when you grow up, Nate?" I doubt they will get it  🤯 He...he...just referenced When I Grow Up...a song that didn't even exist yet! I'm SHOOKETH!!

My life is a mess, better watch your step when you step in it, some of this brain is off-limits

I'm off in a world you don't get, 'cause you ain't ever been in it

In ten minutes I still couldn't explain what's inside my brain, don't mess with it  👌

I've invested a lot of me inside these lines, I'm just protectin' 'em

Everybody wanna hear the real version of life, then don't get so sensitive

When I say something a little bit raw, I jot my thoughts and they call it "negative"

You wanna know where my heart is? I stand out 'cause I wear my garbage

I work my hardest and every time I look into the mirror I don't forget about where I started, woo!  🔥

Tell me, what am I doing here?

Tell me, what am I doing here?

Tell me, what am I, what am I doing? Mmm

Tell me, what am I doing here?

I said, what am I doing here?

Tell me, what am I doing here, if

I'm not being real, mmm
