ABK - Keep It Real lyrics

rate me

<br>

It's time to be real y'all<br />

It's time to be real y'all<br />

I said it's time to be real y'all<br />

<br />

First breathe<br />

Started off a bad ass<br />

East side roamin<br />

Out late gettin cash<br />

Killas don't talk<br />

So I can't say shit<br />

So read between the lines<br />

And just paint your own pic<br />

Hustlin baby<br />

On the grind<br />

I was brought up right<br />

But stayed outta line<br />

Guess you can say when you lose<br />

You're lost<br />

But wit my parents passin on<br />

I had to be boss<br />

<br />

<i>[Chorus:]</i><br />

I'ma keep it real<br />

I'ma keep it real<br />

It's all I've ever known<br />

I'ma keep it real<br />

I'ma keep it real<br />

<br />

Couldn't nobody give me rules<br />

Every now and then a jail cell<br />

But what's that prove<br />

I was still bein hard headed<br />

Claimin the streets<br />

(We have a red skinded male here disturbin the streets)<br />

Problems problems, everybody's got em<br />

Jack and sticc and cut and shoot and rob and<br />

I was addicted to all<br />

Had to change and find a better way<br />

To be well off<br />

<br />

<i>[Chorus]</i><br />

<br />

Nowadays I got a strong mind<br />

I see it all<br />

No need for safety nets<br />

Cuz I will never fall<br />

Keep it floatin like a ghost at night<br />

And put fear in those who's eyes just ain't right<br />

I got angels watchin over<br />

I can feel em when I'm speakin<br />

Like they're on my shoulder<br />

And I admit that it sure feels good<br />

To finally get a chance to be understood<br />

Hard times was broke payin dues<br />

Made a lot of friends and I met a lot of fools<br />

That's why I'm here on the mic today<br />

Cuz I'ma be real and tell you what I need to say<br />

<br />

<i>[Chorus]</i>

<br><br><br><br>
