Real Life
ILS & Baymont Bross & I-Wunda Lyrics

Paula came from Washington with long golden hair
Paula traveled from Washington to an unknown location with long, blonde hair.

Twenty eight dollars in a fake silk purse and a leather skirt to wear
She carried twenty-eight dollars in a purse made of synthetic silk fabric and wore a leather skirt.

Shane came from Dublin town from the old world so green
Shane originated from Dublin, Ireland - a city commonly known for its lush, green landscapes.

Counterfeit ticket in to JFK in the land of his dreams
He had a forged ticket into JFK airport that allowed him to enter the United States and pursue his aspirations.

Street life's the only life they take a walk in the park
Paula and Shane had a preference for the street life, and they strolled through the park to enjoy it.

Even tough they only met that day they were lovers by dark
Despite having met that day, Paula and Shane fell in love and became romantic partners by nightfall.

Laid out on the morning skies he puts a ring on her hand
As the morning skies spread above them, Shane gave Paula a ring as a symbol of his commitment and love.

He said listen babe we gotta take what's ours do it or die
Shane told Paula that they needed to claim what they wanted from life through any challenge, even if their lives were at stake.

Quit dreaming, this is real life baby
Don't indulge in fantasy; this is real life, my dear.

Real life's the only life what's it all about
The only life that counts is the one we're living; it's the only life that matters.

Way out on the dock that night, the colour is red
On the pier that night, the ambiance was stained with the color red, denoting bloodshed and violence.

23rd victim of a gangland war takes his last breath
The 23rd person to fall in a gang war breathed his final breath that night.

Outside the sister cried, she said the whole world's so mean
The victim's sister was outside, sobbing, and remarked that the world was a cruel place.

Heavyweight killer in the ring, turns killing machine
A skilled and powerful boxer transformed into a dangerous murderer.

All my love, you're my all
You are my everything, my dear.

They way you move, you're in control
You have complete power and command over your physical movements.

The way you talk, the way you dress
Your manner of speech and attire.

Your hands, your touch, your sweet caress.
The physical touch of your hands and your tender embrace.

Every little thing that I possess,
Everything I have is important to me, no matter how small.

It's all emotion when you take control,
When you exert control over the situation, my entire being is flooded with intense feelings.

I can feel wild horses running in my soul.
The sensation of untamed energy coursing through my spirit.

Oh my love, all I see
When I look at you, I see everything I love.

The stars, the sun, the energy,
The cosmic bodies that radiate light and vitality.

If this going to kill us then let it go,
If this is what will ultimately lead to our demise, then we should let it happen.

Quit dreaming this is real life baby
Stop indulging in unrealistic fantasies; this is the world we live in.

Up high above a desert sky where the space shuttles scream,
In the sky high above the desert landscape, space shuttles soar with deafening noise.

Sixteen men from a dying earth take their last dream.
Sixteen individuals from a world in decline engage in their final aspiration.

Quit dreaming this is cheap life baby
Stop indulging in unrealistic, meaningless dreams that create an insubstantial existence.

Your eyes, your lips, the shape of your mouth,
Your facial features, such as your eyes, lips, and the figure of your mouth.

It's a sweet life baby
Our life together is a beautiful, pleasurable experience.
