    Massachusetts rappers SUMiT and Millyz link up on Really the 1, trading bars that balance ego with accountability, ambition with aftermath.

    Over a dusty soul loop and crisp boom-bap drums, the duo bring punchlines and confessionals in equal measure—no filler, just focus.

    “I’ve been ready to run it up in the city you’re from,” SUMiT declares, weaving sharp cadence with self-awareness.

    His delivery is tight, almost conversational, laced with lines that veer from self-critique to quiet bravado: “Resent my confidence, be wishing they could rip it off me.”

    Millyz closes with weight—measured, unforced: “Took my life and then I wrote about it / Gotta really chase your dreams, you can’t just hope about it.” 

    His verse shifts from streetwise detail to understated motivation without softening the edge.

    The chemistry feels earned, not engineered. There’s a natural rhythm to the way SUMiT and Millyz volley between introspection and grind, memory and motion. It’s old-school in feel but grounded in today’s emotional realism.

    Really the 1 doesn’t posture. It reflects—on brotherhood, personal stakes, and the pressure of becoming everything you’ve said you are.

    Millyz x SUMiT Really the 1 Lyrics

    Sharing what I keep inside 
    Open what I bottled up, poured it where my people died 
    Wish I had a reason why
    For telling all my recent lies
    Cheating on my wifey like she wouldn’t make a decent bride 
    Blame this shit on Nike, I just do it I ain’t even try 
    Demon time is nightly, biddy likely doing 3 to 5
    ‘Fore I bail 
    Hug her then I pick a color for her nails 
    More than jail
    Slide in with some bars you boys are sure to fail
    How the hell my brother in designer with a spot in Brickell? 
    How I’m with a bunch of dimes and I ain’t got a nickel?
    Hit me with your punching lines them shits would kinda tickle
    Spit some rhymes, you’re gonna find out why this guy’s a sicko 
    But what will he become? 
    He been ready to run it up in the city you’re from
    He been telling ‘em that his run hasn’t really begun 
    Going silly and dumb 
    Know it’s Millyz and Sum

    We both really the 1 though

    We both really the

    Compliments they whisper softly 
    Resent my confidence be wishing they could rip it off me 
    Winning arguments, they take it as I’m getting cocky 
    Piss me off ‘fore I can even take a sip of coffee 
    Bars be layered like a breakfast danish
    She got a body like she speak it as a second language 
    She got a heart but now it’s chrome, I see the weapon’s stainless 
    I see my dawg be hardly home and always repping Cambridge 
    Came and did it big for Massachusetts
    Tell ‘em either blast the new shit or your ass is useless
    And you could look at that as stupid or I’m acting ruthless
    But I would rather make some music than some trash excuses 
    Chill I won’t chill ‘til we done 
    I’ve been ready to run it up in the city you’re from
    I’ve been telling ‘em that my run hasn’t really begun 
    Going silly and dumb 
    Know it’s Millyz and Sum

    We both really the 1 

    Really though

    Yeah
    Living healthy but I’m out here taking flights to Greece
    If we connected then I gotta hit her twice at least
    Black trucks, pull up in plenty, every night’s a fleet
    White on whites but I’ve been in the field like Nike cleats 
    Twice a week I saw the plug because the price was cheap
    If you ain’t qualified to talk ain’t got the right to speak 
    I sip quality-tested wok to make my Sprite unique 
    I do Tulum three times a year because I like the beach 
    Took my life and then I wrote about it 
    Gotta really chase your dreams, you can’t just hope about it 
    Looking out for gang to the point I almost went broke about it 
    Doing charities from the heart I ain’t even post about it 
    Meet me at the summit with SUMiT 
    I’ve really done it 
    Just so funny how they back down soon as they get confronted 
    Shots hit him when he ran the bullets exited his stomach
    If he lives I’ll put that bag on his head like a mullet 
    Cosa Nostra we the mob 
    I’ve been tryina even odds
    Got the key to the city 
    No I don’t need a fob 
    Millions off of rap but thank the Lord I got a decent job 
    ‘Cause if I didn’t I’d sell d’s and rob
    Yeah this life is beautiful
