Keep It Real
Lyrics
Keep it Real
Keep it Real
What is Life
What does it really mean
Why do I find myself struggling for
The littlest things
Who is Light
Is he a part of me
I really don’t know but I really don’t care
And I hope it don’t show that I’m really so scared of the future
And boom goes the dynamite
Who gonna die tonight
Nobody by my side
Whatchu do
When nobody ride or die
Everyone lie and lie
How many times can I lose and lose
My sister forgot about me now that she went out
Finally finded a person to love
I act like I really don’t care
But inside I’m lonely as hell and I’m hurtin a lot
What to do man
What to do
Sit here everyday just writing in my booth
Never go outside and I never find a group
Of people I can reach to when I feel alone like Ooh
Cause till I get comfy with you
I’m just as awkward as fuck
But when you get to know me especially closely
I’m a person where it’s all love and trust
Part of the reason I can’t find no homies
Part of the reason I’m feelin so lonely
Part of the reason my circle so small
Part of the reason I say fuck em all
I just keep on moving can’t let myself fall
Feet start to bleed I won’t let myself fall
No sleep no sleep no sleep Ahhh
I pray and I pray that I don’t hit a wall
Life is a bitch and she really dyin to get me
So I pull out when I’m ready
I can’t get trapped no
Tryna pin me right down
She bumpin my head on the ground
I never thought I’d be going out like that though
Started flippin her over
Now I’m holding control of everything
She was doin I won’t ever let that go
Now I do what I do
And I’m doing it well coming with a cost
Drive alone can’t go back home
Share me a secret I’ll tell you all mine
Wear a smile not doing to fine
Don’t be fake don’t play with my time
All I ever do is
Keep it real
Ay
Woah
Keep it real
All I ever do is keep it real
Woah
Hey
Keep it real
All I ever do is keep it real
My grandpa drinks and drinks and drinks
Till it all begins to sink down
My grandma does everything for him
Cleaning cooking even wipes his shit now
But we still help him
Still pick him up when he fall down
Still take him to the store
Knowin damn well what we go for
And I know all our efforts are in vain
But we don’t ignore him
No we couldn’t
But it left a mark on me
Reason I don’t go out to party
In my eyes alcohol is the devil
Taking form playin cards
As a bar drink
Face the hardships
Stay struggling for money
Working overtime to pay for my shit
State of grinding
Jumping my car every morning
Cause I can’t face the prices
Somebody say when this music gone pay
Ain’t in it for money could use some today
Life is a battle that pulls till you break
If your above send your blessing this way
Write a lot of raps
Saying how I’m balling
But in reality I am still falling
Paycheck to paycheck got too many problems
But won’t ask for help cause I’m too fuckin stubborn
I sit and I wonder am I going under
Am I losing myself and becoming someone I don’t wanna be
Get out my face give me seconds to breathe
Don’t talk to me
I talk with my parents when I’m on the phone
They beg and they beg me please Neel come home
But I couldn’t do it
Forget about music
But dad just had surgery
What the fuck am I doin
Share me a secret I’ll tell you all mine
Wear a smile not doing to fine
Don’t be fake don’t play with my time
All I ever do is
Keep it real
Ay
Woah
Keep it real
All I ever do is keep it real
Woah
Hey
Keep it real
All I ever do is keep it real
Keep it Real
Keep it Real
What is Life
