Read The Room
Talking Intro
Listen. A lot of people are going to try to sell you a dream wrapped in gold paper. (yeah) But when you unwrap it, there is nothing but air. You have to open your eyes, read the fine print of life. (real talk) This is about keeping your vision clear and your soul intact. (so Majestic) Let us get into it.
Verse One
I see them coming with the bright smiles and the heavy handshakes
Talking about percentages and all the money we can make (yeah)
But I look past the suits and the shiny shoes
I am looking at the character, I am reading the clues
They paint a picture of a penthouse, easy living, fast cash
But one wrong signature will turn your whole empire to ash (real talk)
You have to move with intention, keep your circle tight
Observe how they act when the money is not in sight
The streets and the boardroom, they operate the same
Just different outfits, but it is all a leverage game (boss)
I watch the body language, the way they shift their eyes
That is how you separate the truth from the beautiful lies
I learned early on that loyalty is not bought with a check
It is built on respect, keeping your own ego in check (yeah)
So I read the room before I even take a seat
Because true discernment is what makes the victory sweet (so Majestic)
Chorus
Cut through the illusions, see it for what it is
Protect your peace, your family, your business
They sell a false promise, a temporary gleam (yeah)
But we are building real legacies, not a rented dream (real talk)
Cut through the illusions, navigate the snare
When they offer you the world, proceed with caution and care
Verse Two
Back in the day, the traps were out in the open air
Now they are hidden in contracts, they place them everywhere (yeah)
A handshake used to mean your word was your bond
Now they smile in your face while plotting in the pond
They want to drain your energy, take the credit for your grind
That is why you need a fortress around your peaceful mind
I decline bad deals, I do not care about the hype (so Majestic)
If the energy feels off, it is simply not my type
They call it missing out, I call it dodging a blade
I would rather take the slow route than be expertly played (real talk)
The flashing lights distract you from the foundation below
If the roots are not solid, the tree is never going to grow
So keep your vision focused, let the fakes reveal their hand
When the smoke clears out, we are the ones who rule the land (boss)
Read the room twice, never rush to sign the page
Wisdom is the currency that comes with time and age (yeah)
Chorus
Cut through the illusions, see it for what it is
Protect your peace, your family, your business
They sell a false promise, a temporary gleam (yeah)
But we are building real legacies, not a rented dream (real talk)
Cut through the illusions, navigate the snare
When they offer you the world, proceed with caution and care
Bridge
Sometimes the hardest word to say is no
But that is exactly how you make your true value grow (real talk)
Do not let the pressure force you into a bind
Take a step back, elevate your state of mind (so Majestic)
The real ones stay, the fake ones drift away
That is the natural order, let the chips fall where they may
Verse Three
Corporate illusions trying to package our soul
But we hold the masters, we remain in control (yeah)
They promise you the stars if you just compromise your core
But once you give an inch, they will demand a mile more
I stay firm on my values, feet planted in the dirt (real talk)
I know my worth, I know the power of my own work
Every step is calculated, every move is profound
I do not need their validation, I am already crowned (so Majestic)
We moving past the hurdles, leaping over the snare
Creating our own tables, pulling up our own chair
I see the young ones watching, trying to find their own way
I tell them, guard your heart, do not be easily swayed (yeah)
Keep your mind sharp, let your intuition guide
Through the corporate mazes and the dangerous rides
We building something lasting, something pure and pristine
The clearest vision that the world has ever seen (boss)
Chorus
Cut through the illusions, see it for what it is
Protect your peace, your family, your business
They sell a false promise, a temporary gleam (yeah)
But we are building real legacies, not a rented dream (real talk)
Cut through the illusions, navigate the snare
When they offer you the world, proceed with caution and care
Talking Outro
That is it right there. (yeah) You hold the key to your own door. Do not let anybody tell you what your value is. You tell them. (so Majestic) Keep your eyes open. Stay authentic. Stay grounded. We are building for tomorrow, not just for today. (real talk) Peace.
