That's right Reality check You know, what I mean?Street lights and [incomprehensible] Scorpion, yeah When I was young I use to dream of bein' rich Have a lot of houses and cars Couldn't know which one was which And finding me a chick and getting hitched Livin' the fairy tale life perfect without a ditch 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 Take a look inside yourself You'll realize 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 gig up all my peoples who'll 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 as bad as they can be You could be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow I never got to have myself the house, the mansion, and the BenzI'm not the kind of brother who be makin' mad ends I got myself a girl but we be kickin' it as friends Is not enough for me now 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 gig up all my peoples who'll 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 as bad as they can be You could be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow All the harsh realities Appears to come in two's and three's Don't worry' Cuz there'll be a better day One thing I can promise you Just keep on keeping on I swear to you There's gonna be a brighter day Back in the days I used to dream of bein' rich Have alot of houses and cars Couldn't know which one was which And finding me a chick and getting hitched Livin' the fairy tale life perfect without a ditch 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 realize 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 gig up all my peoples who'll 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 as bad as they can be You could be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow That's right, see me, yeah Give thanks for, ya know And when you think that it's bad There's always somebody that's worse Know, what I'm sayin'?
