The Realist
Young Jeezy Lyrics

Ride on these niggaz
Going after and defeating rivals

Super charger, the same color as PJ
Young Jeezy has a fast car that is the same color as his private jet

I got a champagne range
Young Jeezy has a fancy car

Pick niggaz off, I got a night-scope aim (Bah)
Young Jeezy can take out targets at night with his gun's night-scope capability

Audio, video, you caught on tape
If you're caught on tape, it's evidence that can be used against you

That's a way to get ya ass sent Upstate (dayyyum)
Being caught on tape doing something illegal can result in getting sent to prison upstate

In '9-AY! I took them trips down to Lauderdale
Young Jeezy has been traveling to Lauderdale since the 90s

Back and forth, like Aliyah
Young Jeezy has been going back and forth a lot to Lauderdale, like Aliyah's song 'Back and Forth'

Chances of gettin' rich is like one-in-a-million
It's very hard to become rich

Or more like two-in-a-billion
It's even harder to become rich than the previous comparison

Flashin' lights, my mind's playin' tricks on me
Young Jeezy is worried about the police and their flashing lights

But the Minuteman still do tricks on me
Even though he's vigilant, Young Jeezy still worries the police will catch him

Swear the feds just starin' at a nigga
Young Jeezy is paranoid that the feds are watching him

You know, you feelin' ya heart fall into ya feet
Paranoia and fear can be physically felt

Summertime niggaz still ridin' with the heat
Even though it's summer, people are still carrying guns

Jeezy De Niro, Snowman Pacino
Young Jeezy compares himself to famous actors who have played gangsters in movies

Real niggaz love me because I talk that lingo
Young Jeezy speaks the language of those who live in the streets and so they respect him

And I'm the muhfuckin' realist...
Young Jeezy is the most authentic person

These niggaz ain't never sold the weight
Other rappers are fake because they haven't sold drugs like he has

Nowadays the GT's glock black (cheaaa!)
Young Jeezy has a car and a gun

Gotta be careful what you say on the phone
Young Jeezy is cautious when talking on the phone because it can be bugged by the police

I'm 36 O's away
Young Jeezy has a large amount of drugs left before he retires from the drug game

From givin' the mic up and goin' back to the streets (naww)
Young Jeezy will quit rapping and return to the streets if the album doesn't sell

What's the difference, I still eat the same
Whether he raps or sells drugs, Young Jeezy is still making money and eating well

You niggaz rappin' 'bout blow, like it's a fad
Other rappers try to make drug dealing a fashion trend, but Young Jeezy is serious about it

Nigga this is my life, I ain't tryna set trends
Selling drugs has been Young Jeezy's life and he is not trying to make it trendy

'Cause everybody knows how that brick-road ends
Most people know that drug dealing leads to bad things

Heartless, maybe I need to see the Wizard
Young Jeezy is heartless towards his competitors and wishes he could meet the Wizard of Oz to get some guidance

Until then, Imma make it snow blizzards
Until he gets guidance, Young Jeezy will keep selling a lot of drugs

I show you what that street shit 'bout
Young Jeezy will teach others about what really goes on in the streets

Hit you right up with them thangs, and come back with the chains
Young Jeezy uses guns to rob others and takes their jewelry

Might cook it in the stove, might cook it in the microwave
Young Jeezy uses different methods to cook his drugs

Either way it's gonna sell, still weigh it on the scale
No matter how it's cooked, the drugs still sell and must still be weighed on a scale

I'm talkin' sucka-free Sundays and iced-out Mondays
Young Jeezy is talking about his days of the week, where he is stress-free and successful

Pin-up Tuesdays and body-tap Wednesdays
Young Jeezy goes on dates on Tuesday and gets rid of bodies on Wednesday

You was in the studio, I was on the block
While other rappers were in the studio, Young Jeezy was still doing business on the streets

In the kitchen at the spot goin' hard with the blocks
Young Jeezy is working hard in the kitchen to cook his drugs

25 for the four ways, choppaz by the door-ways
Young Jeezy has weapons to protect himself and sells his drugs in different amounts
