Keepin It Real 歌詞
Everyone sees it, puts their face in the ground.
And when nobodys watching they can tear it all down.
Friend or foe, cause I can be either one.
But if they come at me, then they better all run
The woods all soaked and so the fire wont burn
Now I keep talking but you never learn
The cuts too deep and so the wound wont heal
You wont keep nothing
You dont keep nothing by keeping it real
Long-tooth time is marching on as on as I sing
Just cut me down the middle and count my rings
Cant keep nothing, best to leave it alone
You die naked and they burn up your bones.
The woods all soaked and so the fire wont burn
Now I keep talking but you never learn
The cuts too deep and so the wound wont heal
You wont keep nothing
You dont keep nothing by keeping it real
Whats the point in wishing there was somewhere to go
if when you get there you cant let anyone know?
when my time comes I wont be leaving this earth
and what Ive done for people will determine my worth
The woods all soaked
And so the fire wont burn
Now I keep talking but you never learn
The cuts too deep and so the wont heal
You wont keep nothing
You dont keep nothing by keeping it real
The woods all soaked and so the fire wont burn
Now I keep talking but you never learn
The cuts too deep and so the wont heal
You wont keep nothing
You dont keep nothing by keeping it real
