Jenkins kicks things off, reflecting on outgrowing stagnant relationships and sidestepping the allure of superficial validation. His bars resonate with a patient wisdom, conveying that true progress comes from within, amidst Grand Theft Auto references and searing social critiques. Gibbs jumps in with tales of street hustle and resilience. His narrative weaves through vice and virtue, contrasting fleeting triumphs with deep trust issues. He underscores the perils of fame and the fragility of connections, warning against the illusions of rap fame while flying the flag for realness. Both artists converge on the idea that words are cheap; true essence must be shown, not told. This anthem is a call for transparency, coupled with a sharp dismissal of pretense. #KeepItReal #ShowDontTell
