Real Things
Faith Evans · Something About Faith [2010]
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
Familiar... predictability
You and me
A white house surrounded by a pink fence on a hill
A black Cadillac a back... filled with one hundred dollar bills
It's all good for nothing it's not what we are made of
Cannot sell you for no price
The real things of life
[Chorus:]
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
Familiar predictability
You and me
The swap off a credit card substitutes what is real
Buying expensive gifts for the sake of what you feel
It's not really showing love that it's not what we're made of
Spinning the cash won't keep right
The real things in life
[Chorus:]
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
Familiar... predictability
You and me
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
Familiar... predictability
You and me
Here is a quote to memorize
Mad men is a merchandise
Maximize and recognize
The real miss in life
Read about...
Jeopardize all is fine
Brutalizes your real life
You've... your pride
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
Familiar... predictability
You and me
Security Serenity Stability
The therapy the memories the unity
The loyalty the honesty the sanity
{Let me tell you right now}
Familiar... predictability
You and me
