Keep'n It Real - Swingers Mix

Uh, that;s right
Reality check, you nah mean?
Street life, zimmie?
Dukes
Scorpion, yeah

When I was young, I used to dream of being rich
Have a lot of houses and cars, couldn't know which one was which
And finding me a chick and getting hitched
Living the fairy tale life, perfect without a glitch
You think that this would bring me happiness
If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest
Sometimes having more is really less
So take a look inside yourself, you'll realise you're really blessed

No matter how you're sad and blue
There's always someone who has it worse than you
Sometimes you gotta pay your dues
So don't worry, just push on through

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who'd be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the nine to five
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are bad as they can be
You could be sure there'd be a brighter tomorrow

I never got to have myself the house, the mansion or the Benz
I'm not the kinda brother who'd be making mad ends
I got myself a girl, but we'd be kicking it as friends
It's not enough for me, but that depends, again
Not everything you want is everything you really need
The standard of society is motivated by greed
Are you prepared to follow?
Tell me you prepared to lead
So persevere and you'll succeed

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who'd be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the nine to five
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are bad as they can be
You could be sure there'd be a brighter tomorrow

All the harsh realities
Appears to come, in twos and threes
Don't worry, 'cause there'd be a better day
One thing I can promise you, just keep on keep'n on
I swear to you, there's gonna be a brighter day

Back in the days I used to dream of being rich
Have a lot of houses and cars, couldn't know which one was which
And finding me a chick and getting hitched
Living the fairy tale life, perfect without a glitch
You think that this would bring me happiness
If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest
Sometimes having more is really less
So take a look inside yourself, you'll realise you're really blessed

No matter how you're sad and blue
There's always someone who has it worse than you
Sometimes you gotta pay your dues
So don't worry, just push on through

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who'd be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my peoples working on the nine to five
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are bad as they can be
You could be sure there'd be a brighter tomorrow

That's right, see me, yeah
Give thanks for what you have, ya know
And when you think that it's bad
There's always somebody that's worse
Know what I'm sayin'
Give Jah blessings, zimmie?
Wa-wa, wa-wa
