Lyrics

Real recognizes real
No fake friends, no thin lines
When the world tries to break the deal
Real recognizes real
Through the highs, through the falls
When nobody answers the call
If it’s true, you can feel it’s real
Yeah, real recognizes real

Jenni reads the room like a map in the dark
Always knows the way back, it’s better that way, so we can find the way leading out to the X mark
I’ll always have your back, like you always have mine
Aymee moves quietly, but her words hit deep
Bffs for life
Never needed volume, just to make others see
Randy was the life of the party, his point always struck clear
He was young, but he was wise
He will always be missed

Real recognizes real
No fake friends, no thin lines
When the world tries to break the deal
Real recognizes real
Through the highs, through the falls
When nobody answers the call
If it’s true, you can feel it’s real
Yeah, real recognizes real

Remy keeps it one hundred, never crossed any line
Called it how it was, never wasted time
If I was reaching for the wrong kind of love
And letting me see what’s lurking
Deep beyond the shadows
For the goodness of my heart and soul
Thank you for your advice, my friend

Patrick always told me to do what’s best for me
He’s the big bro, watching from the heavens
Ashley, you know me without me sayin’ a word
Through the storms, your voice is heard

Real recognizes real
No fake friends, no thin lines
When the world tries to break the deal
Real recognizes real
Through the highs, through the falls
When nobody answers the call
If it’s true, you can feel it’s real
Yeah, real recognizes real
