Real people, real people do real things
Yes we do
And real people, real people live real lives
That's the truth
I was born far away, it was me, moms and dad
And we boarded a plane and came August 10th
They divorced right away but hate's for the past
They were arguing constantly, breaking shit
But fortunately for me they stayed friends
Not really besties but they made amends
And it taught me that enemies can break bread
As long as there's a common thread between them
It was hard on the day when first grade began
Kids called me some names I won't repeat them
But the bond that we shared at home gave me strength
We promised ourselves we'd make it, amen
Real people, real people do real things
Yes we do
And real people, real people live real lives
That's the truth
Clap your hands
Stomp your feet
Come on, clap your hands
Stomp your feet
Come on, clap your hands
I said stomp your feet
Clap your hands
Stomp your feet
Hey, hey
Real people, real people do real things
Yes we do
And real people, real people live real lives
That's the truth
I fondly remember childhood events
I was rocking suspenders, socks kinda damp
'Cause moms had a dilemma, problem on her hands
She was all out of quarters at the laundromat
Ha, now that I'm grown, see I recognize
Just how people close to me sacrificed
In countless ways I now realize
The amount they believed in me throughout life
And we all have a path to blaze in our lives
We all need a plan, some days improvised
Overall though we want the same things in life
A job, paycheck, a place to reside
Past moments and now I'm the same as I've been
Confidence, doubts, mistakes and some wins
I'm a father myself, I'm great raising kids
We promised ourselves we'd make it, amen
Real people, real people do real things
Yes we do
And real people, real people live real lives
That's the truth
Real people, real people do real things
Yes we do
And real people, real people live real lives
That's the truth
