Too Real (Extended Version)

All I know that works in the world is a relationship
Yes, alright
Okay, that, that's all that's gonna work work
It takes two people to have a relationship
Yeah, but, but it, but the relation...
If you don't have a dream, fake it
But the relation... you can't fake a dream
You got to fake it, because we don't have dreams these days
How the hell can you have a dream?
For what?
Well...
So, so everybody's, everybody's jiving, but let's jive on that level
If I love you, I can't lie to you
Of course you can lie to me, and you will
If you love me and you going off with Maddiе someplace, you're lying to me
'Cause what the hell do I care about the truth? I care if you're there
Like Billie Holiday say, "Hush now, don't explain"

Even though it all changed, I'm gon' still sing your praises, girl
Your praises, girl, yeah (Yeah)
We were one in the same, now we're going through phases, yeah (Through phases)
Look at you now, sweeter than sugar for me, oh
And I'm wondering now if it's still the place to be, yeah, for me
Tell me, what's the difference now? I'm still the same man, you still the same girl you used to be
Did the world get to you? Girl, did you change plans? It started with you and me
Life went and got too real

Like the mattress on the floor
And the squares from the store
Ride the scooter from the court
Alphabet city, we had a view from the porch
Even back then we knew that this was on borrowed time
We were too driven, you were too fine
Everywhere we went they had two lines
And I know that you ain't waiting for a good time
Oh girl, I can't blame you, no (I can't blame ya)
I seen you all over town, now you're a stranger, baby
You're mine cause I know how you feel
And I'm proud even though it's surreal
I had to let go, for
Life went and got too real

Even though it all changed, I'm gon' still sing your praises, girl
Your praises, girl (Woah-oh-woah)
We were one in the same, now we're going through phases, yeah (Through phases)
Look at you now, sweeter than sugar for me
And I'm wondering now if it's still the place to be, yeah
Tell me, what's the difference now? I'm still the same man, you still the same girl you used to be
Did the world get to you? Girl, did you change plans? It started with you and me
Life went and got too real
