Keep It Real
Gar Snipe And B.G. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The climate in the air rising. It's so surreal
Homies think I'm fake, but I'm here to keep it real
Better pull out them contracts. I'm here to make a deal
I swear to keep it real from this day forward
No more playing games, man. I got to stay focused
On what I came to do, and that's inspire
Legend in the making. I'm not gon' retire
I been working hard for this life. Man, it's too lit
I done made a lot of mistakes, that I can admit.
Even though they made me who I am today
Got to thank the Lord for making a way
For making a way, believe when I say
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Way) (Oh!)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Truth) (Oh yeah!)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Life...) (J.CAM!)
Never gonna quit this. I got to keep it real wit'cha
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna quit this. I got to keep it real wit'cha
Yeah. Would you believe me if I told you
I got haters hating everyday?
But most of y'all are probably gonna love this anyway
I got the key to doing big things with this music thing
I got no limits. I probably could do anything
Wait a minute. Hold up, Wait a minute
They don't really think that I got what it takes
My mind is in a zone. I'm bout to spit facts
Whether y'all like it or not the reason why you think this is whack
Is simply cause I keep on winning and I got this in tact, and that's facts
And all I really wanna do, is prove to people I'm the truth
I know it's a lot to work hard for. But I know for my music, I'd die for it
I know enemies wish on my sky fall, and I know that they pray on my downfall
All I know is that I got to pray to God and ask him to help me to not fall
I got to be about my business. I got to keep pushing my limits
Breaking all the walls in front of me, just in a matter of minutes
I'm bout to power up like Tommy. Power Rangers Mighty Morphin'
Never doubt me. That's important
I'm not in it for the fortune. I'm not in it for the fame
My game is about to switch up like proportions. it'll never be the same
After I'm done with this, they gon' remember me as the one who changed the game
I got a few people up set with me. they mad cause they know this my destiny. Who am I to blame
Shoutout to all of my groups
Children of the Cross and Authorized. Don't know what I would do without you guys
I probably wouldn't be me, not without you guys. And that's why
I do this, so that y'all can see how I feel
This what happens when y'all be asking me to keep it real
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Yeah)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oooh ooh ooh ooooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oooooh⦠Ooooooh)
Never gonna quit this. I got to keep it real wit'cha
(Yeah)
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna quit this. I got to keep it real wit'cha
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna stop this, never gonna quit this
(Oh Oooooh oh oh oh oooh oh oooh)
Never gonna quit this. I got to keep it real wit'cha
