keep it real lyrics

[Intro]
(Motherf*cker, keep it real)
(Keep it)

[Verse 1]
Man, it was 2021, ridin' in the Lumina
We was comin' back from town
And we was stranded, we was young
Kept breakin' down every f*ckin' mile or sum'
And we was havin' to pour water in the hoses or sum'
And everybody in the car was so f*ckin' high
Some people were drunk, some people were trippin'
I was gone like a fly
But when we made it to the CEFCO, we got sober that night
And it was 5:00 in the mornin', the sun ain't up in the sky
And we got antifreezе, then we dropped еveryone off
Came home an hour later, felt like I had got robbed
But at the end of the day, my parents ain't even know
But now I'm finna go up, I'm finna go do a show
Now it's been two f*ckin' years, I'm doin' better myself
I know that one day all these records will start flyin' off shelves
Cause I know every second counts when you up in this community
You know what I mean, we finna go make a scene, for real

[Refrain]
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
(What)
(Yeah)
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
[Verse 2]
Yeah, it's 2023, almost 2024
I'm gon' spark this f*ckin' blunt, then I'ma light up twenty more
I got visions for this sh*t the snakes just wanna ignore
You know I'm goin' real crazy, mane, come and see what's in store
I'm makin' money in this b*tch, I got a couple racks on me
I'm smokin' on exotic weed, I got some front row seats
I flipped the '98 on 90, ayy, that was a mess
I don't know how I'm still alive, the universe said I'm blessed
I was gonna do a show the f*ckin' very next day
But you know my ass couldn't make it, had to see I was okay
I would've done it and sh*t, but I had got no car
I had to drive my mom's to work and back, but bruh, I was scarred
But I just know for a fact that all the sh*t that we did
And everything that we lived, and everything that we gived
That at the end of the day, we steady grindin' and sh*t
Cause we ain't gon' do anything if we just wait around and sit, yeah

[Refrain]
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
Overcome the obstacles you deal with
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
I don't care about the past, this sh*t is now, b*tch
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
Overcome the bullsh*t that you deal with
Keep it real, motherf*cker, keep it real
We had to learn from our mistakes when we was down, b*tch
