Define Keeping It Real

Define keeping it real. Typed or text by fingers dripping with acrylic.Thought of by heads heavy with glue and synthetics.Spoken from a mouth that never stayed quiet long enough for the cubic zerconia laced ears to listen to the true definition. They alter the meaning to fit into they're profile or about me box.While outsides change with each new swap meet delivery, insides never should.Keeping it real should come easy.But for some its as hard as putting pampers on your babies.You should stop focusing on trying to look real and get real.Its a mask.Like the thick covergirl used to cover u girl.if your real it goes without saying. It beams off of u like the u.v.rays on your 10 minute skin If u were real all the things mentioned above would be pretty. Instead its a distraction used to take away the focus because your seriously lacking!
