It's Time To Be Real
by L.T.D.
It’s time to be real
Why are so many people on ego trips?
Do you know what I’m talkin’ ’bout?
It’s so hard sometimes to relate
C’mon down to earth and let’s communicate
Cause now it's time to be real
Can’t you feel that now it’s time to be real?
There’s no reason why we can’t be real
It’s time to be real
It’s time to be real
It’s a shame and still it’s very true
There are some who think they're superior to you
If all men are created equally
Do away right now with ego and conceit
Now it’s time to be real
Can’t you feel that now it’s time to be real?
There’s no reason why we can’t be real
