Fort Minor - What\'s Real lyrics

rate me

I have a dream of a scene between the green hills

the clouds pull away and the sunlight's revealed

people dont talk about keepin it real,

(it's understood that they actually will.)

an intoxicated and stimulated MC starin in the trees

paranoid or caught in the breeze,

watch them flee,

hip hop pets take a walk with me

And what you'll see is a land

where the sand's made of crushed up wax

and the sky beyond you is chrylon blue

and everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme

MC's have left materialism behind them

Meanwhile I just grip my mic and

hope me and my team make it through alright

because say what you will and say what you might

but dont ignore who it's for at the end of the night because...

(Chorus)

This is dedicated to the kids

dedicated to where the music lives

dedicated to those who are tired of the same old same

dedicated to the people advanced in the game

what's real? is the kids that know that something's wrong

what's real? is the kids who think they dont belong

what's real? is the kids who have nowhere to run

who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun.

I've seen a lot of shit,

I've talked to a bum out on sunset strip

He asked me "how would you feel

if everybody acted like you didn't exist?"

You'd lose your grip

probably eventually flip.

So let it be known,

you're the only reason that we do this

is so you can pick it up and just bang your head to it

While MC's fight to see who can be the commonest

We'd float overhead like a space odyssey monolith

Overseein the game, over bein part of the same old thing

it's all gonna change in a hurricane

darkness and pain, and acidic rain

and promises you worked away the game

Meanwhile I just grip my mic and

hope me and my team make it through alright

because say what you will and say what you might

but dont ignore who it's for at the end of the night because...

(Chorus)

This is dedicated to the kids

dedicated to where the music lives

dedicated to those who are tired of the same old same

dedicated to the people advanced in the game

what's real? is the kids that know that something's wrong

what's real? is the kids who think they dont belong

what's real? is the kids who have nowhere to run

who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun.

(Chorus)

This is dedicated to the kids

dedicated to where the music lives

dedicated to those who are tired of the same old same

dedicated to the people advanced in the game

what's real? is the kids that know that something's wrong

what's real? is the kids who think they dont belong

what's real? is the kids who have nowhere to run

who are hiding in the shadows waiting for the sun.
