[00:21.81]I remember me sittin' on my daddy's knee
[00:23.98]
[00:26.65]Dreamin' 'bout what life had in store for me
[00:28.77]
[00:31.05]When I look back now it really makes me mad
[00:33.21]
[00:35.41]The years I took for granted were the best I had
[00:37.93]
[00:40.64]School was alright
[00:41.95]Gave me time to fantasize
[00:43.85]
[00:45.12]But one day I woke up
[00:46.46]And I realized
[00:48.62]I'm livin' in the real world
[00:50.05]
[00:51.10]Everything's written in black and white
[00:53.41]Livin' in the real world
[00:54.42]
[00:55.39]Where you don't get nothin' unless you fight
[00:57.63]
[01:07.58]I wanna relax but I don't know how
[01:09.48]
[01:12.09]The pressures on me are much stronger now
[01:13.90]
[01:16.45]I remember the days I didn't have a care
[01:18.58]
[01:20.95]Aside from being afraid somebody'd cut my hair
[01:22.99]
[01:25.95]I wanna make it
[01:27.49]Before my chances are gone
[01:29.49]
[01:30.60]They say be patient
[01:31.83]But it takes too long
[01:33.51]
[01:34.50]I'm livin' in the real world
[01:35.51]
[01:36.65]Everything's written in black and white
[01:39.01]Livin' in the real world
[01:39.96]
[01:40.94]Where you don't get nothin' unless you fight
[01:43.26]I'm livin' in the real world
[01:44.50]
[01:45.72]Everything's written in black and white
[01:47.97]Livin' in the real world
[01:49.10]
[01:50.15]Where you don't get nothin' unless you fight
[01:52.63]
[02:57.46]Someday soon I'll settle down for good
[02:59.21]
[03:01.89]There was a time I thought I never would
[03:04.17]
[03:06.51]I'm gonna live with a lady on a quiet beach
[03:08.56]
[03:11.01]I'm gonna have three kids maybe one of each
[03:13.05]
[03:16.04]I've got to make it
[03:17.59]Before my chances are gone
[03:19.64]
[03:20.81]They say be patient
[03:22.21]But it takes too long
[03:24.19]I'm livin' in the real world
[03:25.56]
[03:26.82]Everything's written in black and white
[03:29.04]Livin' in the real world
[03:30.09]
[03:31.07]Where you don't get nothin' unless you fight
[03:33.48]I'm livin' in the real world
[03:34.71]
[03:35.65]Everything's written in black and white
[03:38.02]Livin' in the real world
[03:39.33]
[03:40.21]Where you don't get nothin' unless you fight
