Holes movie - Keepin' It Real lyrics

rate me

Song by Shaggy<br /><br>

Uh- thats right<br>

Reality check<br>

You kno what I mean<br>

Street lifes eh<br>

Scorpion yeah uh<br>

<br>

When I was young<br>

I use to dream of being rich<br>

Have alot of houses and cars <br>

Couldn't know which one was which<br>

And finding me a chick and getting hitched<br>

Living the fairy tale life perfect without a ditch<br>

You think that this would bring me happiness<br>

If at the end of every rainbow <br>

There was a treasure chest<br>

Sometimes having more is really less<br>

So take a look inside yourself<br>

You'll realize you're really blessed<br>

No matter how you're sad and blue<br>

There's always someone who has it worse than you<br>

Sometimes you gotta pay your dues<br>

So don't worry just push on through<br>

<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future<br>

Though they know they gotta struggle<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

To all my homies working on the 9 to 5<br>

And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible<br>

There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

If things are as bad as they can be<br>

You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow<br>

<br>

And I forgot to have myself the house, the mansion, and the Benz<br>

I'm not the type of brother who be making mad ends<br>

I got myself a girl but we be kickin' it as friends<br>

Is not enough for me now that depends<br>

Again- not everthing you want is everything you really need<br>

The standard of society is more devated by greed<br>

Are you prepared to follow<br>

Tell me are you prepared to lead<br>

So persevere and you'll suceed<br>

<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future<br>

Though they know they gotta struggle<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

To all my homies working on the 9 to 5<br>

And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible<br>

There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

If things are as bad as they can be<br>

You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow<br>

<br>

*Hook*<br>

All the harsh realities<br>

Appears to come in twos and threes <br>

Don't worry cuz <br>

There'll be a better day<br>

One thing I can promise you<br>

Just keep on keeping on<br>

I swear to you <br>

There's gonna be a brighter day<br>

<br>

Back in the days <br>

I use to dream of being rich<br>

Have alot of houses and cars<br>

Couldn't know which one was which<br>

And finding me a chick and getting hitched<br>

Living the fairy tale life perfect witout a ditch<br>

You think that this would bring me happiness<br>

If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest<br>

Sometimes having more is really less<br>

So take a look inside yourself <br>

You'll realize you're really blessed<br>

No matter how you're sad and blue<br>

There's always someone who has it worse than you<br>

Sometimes you gotta pay your dues<br>

So don't worry just push on through<br>

<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future<br>

Though they know they gotta struggle<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

To all my homies working on the 9 to 5<br>

And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible<br>

There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows<br>

Keep'n it real<br>

If things are as bad as they can be<br>

You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow<br>

<br>

That's right, see me, yeah<br>

Give thanks fa wha you have, ya kno<br>

And when you think that its bad<br>

There's always somebody that's worse<br>

Kno what I'm sayin'<br>

Give Jah blessing, see me<br>

Wa-wa, Wa-wa<br>

Wa-wa, wa-wa<br>

<br>
