Keep It Real
Das Lyrics

The lyrics of "To Be Real" by Cheryl Lynn are about the authenticity of love. The song opens by asking what someone finds, feels, and knows to be real in terms of their emotions. The repetition of "ah" at the end of each statement adds emphasis and a sense of sincerity to the lyrics. The chorus speaks directly to a lover, acknowledging that their love is real and mutual. The line "what you find" could be interpreted as the discovery of one's feelings, followed by the realization that they are indeed in love.

The verse is followed by a bridge, where the singer validates the love of the subject of the song by stating that "your love's for real now." The repetition of "my love is your love, our love is here to stay" reinforces the importance of the relationship between the singer and their lover. The final repetition of "to be real" is a plea to the lover to embrace their feelings and be honest with themselves and their partner. The phrase "it's time to be real" suggests that there may have been a reluctance to embrace these feelings, and the singer is urging them to do so.

Overall, "To Be Real" celebrates the authenticity and strength of love. The lyrics encourage both partners to be honest and open about their feelings and embrace the reality of their relationship.
