Lyrics
YOU LOST A REAL ONE
Lil Kane
HOOK
I know that ain't yo bitch,
I know that she fuck with my nigga,
That used to be the hoe, bitch,
She left me, I'm still checking chicken.
I know you want some old bitch,
Two fingers, I got something different.
You lost a real one,
Girl, you lost a real one.
I know that she fuck with my niggas, my niggas,
I'm still checking chicken,
Now you tripping.
You lost a real one,
Too bad, her loss!
VERSE 1 — 50 BARS
1. I knew something wasn't adding up, I caught the subtraction,
2. You were playing both sides, I was watching the action.
3. I don't need a confession, your behavior said enough,
4. You can dress it up pretty, but the truth still shows up.
5. I gave you something genuine, you treated it like a rental,
6. Now you're looking for the original, but the copy ain't identical.
7. I don't compete for attention, I got better things to do,
8. You were busy making options, I was busy making moves.
9. Nine represents Imperial, the place that made my name,
10. From the beach to the streets, still the same through every change.
11. Thirteen stands for Mob, that's the circle and the bond,
12. Not everybody gets a seat just because they tag along.
13. Sixteen stands for Pacific, where the coastline meets the breeze,
14. Imperial Beach in my story, that's a part of my identity.
15. Put the letters all together, let the initials explain,
16. I.M.P. is the foundation, not a costume for the fame.
17. You thought I'd lose direction when you decided to depart,
18. I was building something bigger while you played a little part.
19. KILL THAT! — I don't entertain the same old conversation,
20. You can keep the explanations, I prefer the elevation.
21. I don't chase a moving target, I don't beg a thing to stay,
22. If you wanted something different, you were free to walk away.
23. I got plans on the table, got a future in my sight,
24. You were worried about the gossip, I was working through the night.
25. I know what I contributed, I don't need to advertise,
26. Some people see the value when it's standing in their eyes.
27. You had somebody solid, but you treated it like spare change,
28. Now you're telling everybody that somehow I became strange.
29. That's a funny little story, got a twist I didn't write,
30. You can be the main attraction in your version every night.
31. I'm still checking chicken, still got family on my mind,
32. Still protecting what I built, still investing in my time.
33. All I'm about is money, my family, and respect,
34. Going back to broke? That's a debt I won't collect.
35. If you need it, I got it, but I don't give it to everybody,
36. Learned that all money ain't good, can't serve everybody.
37. I don't need a crowded room to prove I'm doing well,
38. Some people bring you peace, some bring a story you can tell.
39. You were looking for a reaction, I gave you silence instead,
40. Sometimes the loudest statement is the one that's never said.
41. I don't carry every grudge, I just remember every lesson,
42. You can call it bad timing, I call it bad selection.
43. I was loyal when it mattered, that's the part you can't replace,
44. Now I'm moving with a purpose, got a different kind of pace.
45. No dramatic exit, no announcement on the way,
46. Just a chapter getting closed while I get back to my day.
47. You lost somebody genuine, that's the truth beneath the noise,
48. I don't need to prove I'm real by trying to impress the boys.
49. Imperial Beach behind me, Pacific running through,
50. You lost a real one, girl — that's something you already knew.

VERSE 2 — 50 BARS
1. I came up with a vision, not a pocket full of favors,
2. Had to learn to read the room before I learned to read the players.
3. Everybody wants the shine, nobody wants the preparation,
4. Everybody wants the crown, few can handle the obligation.
5. I keep my circle honest, keep my expectations clear,
6. If your loyalty is rented, it can disappear.
7. I don't need a hundred people saying everything is great,
8. I'd rather have a handful who are solid when it's late.
9. Nine is Imperial, that's the beginning of the story,
10. Not a borrowed reputation, that's a place with its own glory.
11. Thirteen is Mob, that's the people standing near,
12. Real ones don't need a speech to make their intentions clear.
13. Sixteen is Pacific, that's the water by the land,
14. Different waves, different tides, still I know exactly where I stand.
15. I.M.P. across the map, let the initials do the talking,
16. South Bay in my footsteps every time you see me walking.
17. I don't need a fancy label just to tell you what Ib
