What's real???
lyrics
(Mane Rok)
The issue can’t wait. This here campaign
To get your hands raised, if you can’t take
Garbage we’re fed artificial man made
With additives, preservatives, it’s so damn fake
Fifteen bucks for a fifty cent reality
This is what forms filthiness, fallacies
Fabricated, laboratory experiments
Arrogance mask cracks in their narratives
Studio gangstas repping false hoods
Who do you thank when shit ain’t all good?
No accountability, it’s entertainment,
As long as pockets profit on deposits in play list
From Atlantic to the capital assembly lines
Spitting’ out spitters that dribble a generic design
Impaired in the mind, don’t care that it’s dying’ NO!
It ain’t real, pretend that I’m lying’
(Chorus-Children and Choir)
If it ain’t real, it ain’t right ain’t right X4
(Tense)
“Ain’t real ain’t right”
“Why try to keep it real, it’s real”
“You try keeping it real, yet you should try keeping’ it right”
(InkLine)
(If it ain't real...) I don't know what it is at all
For sure don't know what it means
(Then it ain't right...) I can't see what it used to be
It’s different so it seems (& that's just life...)
You say your prayers in a falsehood reality
And bow to kings that don't mean majesty
And dream it'll be all good, actually
Those same kings got a trophy per casualty
But we don't think of gravity, just hold it down
Nothing but the real, enough to go around
Carry the world's weight on our own shoulders now
We wrote the book baby, could show you how
But you were raised in the name of fraudulence
Under pride and shame and awkwardness
It’s all a game where the fame and fortune is
Soul sucked dry, so unfortunate
(Chorus)
