Keep It Real

Huh, yo, you want me da keep it real wit cha?
But I don't wanna hurt cha feelings...

Yo it's time to realize
And now open your eyes

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Ugh, now keep it real wit
Real wit what cha feel...
Ugh, cause this is what cha deal wit

Do your best on your mark
The struggling starts
Troublin' heart isn't humble
and has no love in da dark?
Separated from the thought
Some might relate it to art
It's about to draw us apart

My mind wants da march
Body parts are arch
But if you're soul don't wanna roll
It ain't no walk in the park
I got issues been misused
Thank God I'm not in his shoes
But I sob in tissue
When I'm in the state of New York

A new talk, state and time
Been waitin' for signs
Don't be shakin' da sign
I ain't fakin' and lyin'
Hatin' Satan takin' ya blind
To a whole... new level
Never sellin' my soul to the devil
Does he pay? U2 talk

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real... real wit
Real wit what feel...
Ugh for this is what cha deal wit

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feeling inside
But keep it real...
Ugh, Now keep it real wit
Yo Flex, you're gonna have da deal wit Felix

Over verse 2, if I curse who hurt's the worst crew
But what would your church do? I be the first 2
Pursue the virtue, comes to my church pew
As controversial, but so commercial

My rhymes playing tricks on me
But I got hot chicks on me
If this ain't his story it's history
If the mystery happened to be my story
Then all eyes on me, instead a I'm sorry

Been tryin' da tell um
Cryin' and yellin'
Stop lying, rebellin'
Would ya fire your reverend
If they're denying ya heaven?

Keep it real...
Ugh, if ya feel sick
Real with what cha feel
Ugh, then this can help ya heal quick

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Real wit what cha feel...

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Real wit what cha feel
Let me break it down to ya

If it's your birthday (it's your birthday)
Cause you wanted it on a Thursday
It was the worst day to be thirsty
Keep it real...
You heard her say...
Real with what cha feel
All she wanted was my jersey...

And if she ask you da choose
Between the red one or blue one
Would you get mad if she said a new one
Keep it real...
She wanted to give you some
Real with what cha feel...
You kept it real cause you was 2 dumb

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Real wit what cha feel...

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real... real wit
Real wit what cha feel... deal wit

Now veterans want revenge
They'll diss an amateur depends
On keepin' it real on the reel
It really can have its disadvantages
Like what feeds a house, a home
When da leave your spouse alone
Now you need a couch, a mouse, a pouch
The battle zones inside your dome
Between good and bad
It's like you're hustling da hood in rags
Against your alter ego
If ya assault the hero
Now tell me could ya fault the negro

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Real wit what cha feel...

Yo, it's time to realize
And now open your eyes
Try and compromise
Wit what cha feelin' inside
But keep it real...
Real wit what cha feel...
