Real
Rubberneck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So your up again, your totally spun you can't even think
Cause your fucked up again, is it for real!
It's making you a wreck,
Don't ask me why, your looking at
That crystal I don't know why
I don't know why
If you told me once, told me again,
You hate this shit, but
You're trippin' again.
What do you feel?
Is it for real!

Well you want days, I got days,
I got numbers you want weeks
Try for another, you want another taste?
Is it for real!
You'll never change you'll never try,
Your running in circles
Now your living a lie
What do you feel!
If you told me once, told me again,
You hate this shit, but
You're trippin' again.




What do you feel?
Is it for real!
