I’m a rock star, Rick James, Mick Jagger Bright lights, big stages, bad habits Get high, go to prison, and evade taxes This is not what I envisioned when I started rapping Fuck the mansions, the phantoms, the suites, the cabanas ‘Cause none of that matters when the mirror shatters All I see is pieces of me scattered Is it a miracle, or is it madness? Because when I puts it all together it reflects this And this is me About as close you gonna get to insanity, or genius My real-life fantasy
Is this my life, or am I dreaming I can’t lie, I don’t believe it Oh, I don’t believe it Oh, is this my life?

If this was ’03 I would have told you you was crazy If you told me this is what it would be I miss Vita, Caddi, Black Child, Charlie I thought we were tighter then the Marley’s family But I guess you can’t be In an industry that breeds nothing but envy Jealousy, please nobody befriend me! In my real-life fantasy
Is this my life, or am I dreaming I can’t lie, I don’t believe it Oh, I don’t believe it Oh, is this my life?
I’m fantasizing about dreaming about a nightmare How weird is this? It seems like somebody just lost their grip on (Real-life) fantasy, (real-life) fantasy (Real-life) fantasy, (real-life) fantasy I’m on more than they’re on, cocaine or methadone I’m on this money these bitches the upper echelon I’m on one, reality’s on one It’s a thin line, here’s to Christian
Is this my life, or am I dreaming I can’t lie, I don’t believe it Oh, I don’t believe it Oh, is this my life?
