Keep It Real

Keep it real when you talk to me, 
speak with honest words and authority. 

Be true to yourself each and every day, 
don't get caught up in what others do or say. 

You were created original and truly unique, 
so when talking with others quit playing hide and seek. 

You never seem to let your true feelings show, 
so it's hard for me to decide whether you're friend or foe. 

Trying to figure you out is truly a task, 
because every time I talk to you--- you're wearing a mask. 

So remove the mask that hides your inner soul, 
dare to be different--dare to be bold! 

Learn to see things as they really appear.
Speak the truth in love and without fear! 

So the next time I see you express how you feel, 
but above everything else remember to KEEP IT REAL!
