Let's Keep It Real
I’m always going to keep it 100 every year
No pretense over here
Lies come flying out of your mouth and crashing through the roof
Please don't exaggerate, just tell the truth
The pits of your stomach feeling like you are on fire
You need to keep it real, because people can't stand a liar
So many people live in a fantasy more than what’s real, it keeps them insane
I’m so sorry I don’t have time for games
I always have a lot on my mind
But typically reality is so hard to find
Keep your youth but don’t let it keep you
It’s easier to wait for change than to follow through
From my lips to your ear
Hear my words disappear
They say the truth cannot pollute
Persuasive lies are difficult to dilute
Craving for change and seeing past what's real
I have a right to feel what I feel
