i give
you take
i do
you fake
i'm here
you're late
i'm in this for real
you blink
i float
you sink
i'm free
you cling
i'm in this for real
i move
you sleep
i walk
you creep
i'm me
you're a ship
you ain't in this for reali swing
you fold
i tell
you're told
i'm fresh
you're old
tell me who is more real
i hire
you're fired
i'm wired
you're tired
i'm a sire
you're a squire
i'm in this for real
i'm mean
you squeak
i'm cream
you're steam
i'm lean
you're routine
i'm in this for real
i walk

i decide you hide i'm ripe you're dried i bite
you're hype
i'm light
you're fried
i'm spry
you died

The lyrics of Sam Gendel's song CHOICES talks about the contrast between two individuals, and their approaches to life. The lyrics describe the singer as someone who is authentic, confident, and original, while the other person is fake, old-fashioned, and does not share the same level of authenticity.
The song emphasizes how the singer is living for real, while the other person is barely making an effort. This is evident in lines such as "i'm here you're late", "i do you fake", "i'm free you cling", and "i move you sleep". The singer is clearly living in the moment and thriving, while the other person is stagnant and struggling.
The song's chorus "i'm in this for real" is a cue to the listener that the singer is authentic and not playing around with their life. The themes of the lyrics revolve around authenticity, standing firm in one's beliefs, and acknowledging the differences between people.
Overall, the song presents a strong message of self-awareness and the courage to live life on one's own terms. The singer is someone who is laser-focused on their goals and aspirations, and is not afraid to set themselves apart from others who are not living up to their potential.
