LYRICS

Uh, thats right

Reality check, you nah mean?

Street life, zimmie?

Dukes

Scorpion, yeah

When I was young, I used to dream of being rich

Have a lot of houses and cars, couldn’t know which one was which

And finding me a chick and getting hitched

Living the fairy tale life, perfect without a glitch

You think that this would bring me happiness

If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest

Sometimes having more is really less

So take a look inside yourself, you’ll realise you’re really blessed

No matter how you’re sad and blue

There’s always someone who has it worse than you

Sometimes you gotta pay your dues

So don’t worry, just push on through

Keep’n it real

Gotta big up all my peoples who’d be working on the future

Though they know they gotta struggle

Keep’n it real

To all my homies working on the nine to five

And doing right just to keep themselves up out of trouble

Keep’n it real

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible

There ain’t no need in drowning in your sorrows

Keep’n it real

If things are bad as they can be

You could be sure there’d be a brighter tomorrow

I never got to have myself the house, the mansion or the Benz

I’m not the kinda brother who’d be making mad ends

I got myself a girl, but we’d be kicking it as friends

It’s not enough for me but that depends, again

Not everything you want is everything you really need

The standard of society is motivated by greed

Are you prepared to follow?

Tell me you prepared to lead

So persevere and you’ll succeed

Keep’n it real

Gotta big up all my peoples who’d be working on the future

Though they know they gotta struggle

Keep’n it real

To all my homies working on the nine to five

And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble

Keep’n it real

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible

There ain’t no need in drowning in your sorrows

Keep’n it real

If things are bad as they can be

You could be sure there’d be a brighter tomorrow

All the harsh realities

Appears to come, in twos and threes

Don’t worry, ’cause there’d be a better day

One thing I can promise you, just keep on keep’n on

I swear to you, there’s gonna be a brighter day

Back in the days I used to dream of being rich

Have a lot of houses and cars, couldn’t know which one was which

And finding me a chick and getting hitched

Living the fairy tale life, perfect without a glitch

You think that this would bring me happiness

If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest

Sometimes having more is really less

So take a look inside yourself, you’ll realise you’re really blessed

No matter how you’re sad and blue

There’s always someone who has it worse than you

Sometimes you gotta pay your dues

So don’t worry, just push on through

Keep’n it real

Gotta big up all my peoples who’d be working on the future

Though they know they gotta struggle

Keep’n it real

To all my peoples working on the nine to five

And doing right just to keep themselves up out of trouble

Keep’n it real

Although sometimes I know it seems impossible

There ain’t no need in drowning in your sorrows

Keep’n it real

If things are bad as they can be

You could be sure there’d be a brighter tomorrow

That’s right, see me, yeah

Give thanks for what you have, ya know

And when you think that it’s bad

There’s always somebody that’s worse

Know what I’m sayin’

Give Jah blessings, zimmie?

Wa-wa, wa-wa

Wa-wa, wa-wa
