Keep It Real

Chorus: (repeat)
tell ’em how you feel tonight
tell ’em how you feel
gotta keep it real
gotta keep it real (real)

Verse:
tell ’em what’s the deal, how you feel
ever seen a highlight reel?
sex appeal, starin’ slippin’ off banana peels
i’m the real deal not the face of a villian
chill in the lab with the potion, the devotion
mixed emotions, combative in the shadows
hear the commotion far off in the meadows
man on a mission, i love the competiton
catch me if you can but understand my statement
10 years behind the scenes in the basement
I’m here to take control, when the time’s right let it go
hit ’em low, hit ’em high, deliver the blow
come hither the flow that developed on the low
On my own I worked for this
You party to my music
Looking back at square one, my life your entertainment
at your convenience
i don’t fly with bullshit
i just do my own thing, legitamate

Chorus: (repeat)
tell ’em how you feel tonight
tell ’em how you feel
gotta keep it real
gotta keep it real, real

Verse:
just like you, I got somethin’ to prove to myself
in fact i ain’t tryin’ to impress you
focus, no stress once I put my thoughts to good use
the heart of a kid that lives through the ugly truth
another dude forcing his hand
attitude, I’m just a man with my youth and a plan
too soon too understand
’89 coupe 5-speed, that be my swag
it’s not like me to brag
I don’t sag below my knees with some chains or doo rags
not for the fame but for the game, it’s in the bag
underground, that’s where it’s at, floetry to the max payne
brain storm with the passion and the charm
slick but at the same time hard
use it to my advantage so you can vibe to me
livin’ for lyrics and they’re livid at Legit I see
no real reason to hate originality
no supremacy, born identity
honestly livin’ to make my dream reality
before I’m just a tally of a casualty
lemme see if i can help my family uhh
bless my people as I kneel and breathe
fold my hands with my head held high praising
G-O-D, eyes to the sky one l-o-v-e
the underdog kinda guy

Chorus: (repeat)
tell ’em how you feel tonight
tell ’em how you feel
gotta keep it real
gotta keep it real, real
