Текст песни IRL - Mahalia

Yeah, oh-no, no
Yeah, uh

They say it takes ten years to make a girl get bigger
Then another ten to secure your position
At least for me, this is my story and my vision
Maybe I should tell you how I started this mission

Thirteen with a big dream
Of bein' in a big scene, in a big city
Singin' songs that they sing with me
I love it when you sing with me, huh
Small town so we moved out
Momma drove me around to different crowds
Who she promised one day would sing to me
I love it when you sing to me, yeah

I just wanna see in real life
What it is I see when I close my eyes
I just wanna see, I just wanna, yeah
I just wanna be in real life
What I choose to be when I'm in my mind
I just wanna be, I just wanna

2017, made a couple videos
Took me a while, but they took me on the road, yeah, haha
"Now that I am sober," yeah
Well, all you really need is somebody who believes in you
One into three and three multiplies easy
Don't get me wrong, no, this was never easy
'Cause I remember when

I was thirteen with a big dream
Of bein' in a big scene, in a big city
Singin' songs that they sing with me, yeah
I love it when you sing with me, huh
Small town so we moved out
Momma drove me around to different crowds
Who she promised one day would sing to me
I love it when you sing to me, yeah

I just wanna see in real life (Real life)
What it is I see when I close my eyes (Yeah)
I just wanna see, I just wanna (Huh)
Yeah, I just wanna be in real life (Real life)
What I choose to be when I'm in my mind (Yeah)
I just wanna be, I just wanna (Yeah, uh, yeah)
I just wanna see in real life (Yeah)
What it is I see when I close my eyes
I just wanna see, I just wanna (I just wanna see, yeah, yeah, no, no)
I just wanna be in real life (Real life)
What I choose to be when I'm in my mind (Yeah)
I just wanna be, I just wanna, huh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
No, no, no, oh, oh-oh
Ayy, ayy, ayy

So my last piece of advice
You better decide
Who you gonna take to the sky with you
As you go up, up
Some people gonna tug, tug, tug you down
They don't really wanna ride with you
And we can't afford to let them man around
They only wanna touch up, up on your crown
