What do you mean keep it real, could someone please explain
|
When reality's just light interpreted by your brain
|
And if mine and your perceptions ain't one and the same
|
Which one of us is normal which one is insane
|
The skin never forgets a deep abrasion
|
Yet your brain often forgets deep conversations
|
This annoys me due to the nature of humanity
|
Want to remember the good, not just the bad things that happened to me
|
And yeah, I understand the minds an intricate tapestry
|
So is the skin and that still records damage, see
|
This scar above my eyebrow's from when I was a kid
|
And my skin has kept a record of the damage I did
|
Twenty some years down the line from that very day
|
Documentation of carelessness and the price that you pay
|
Yet it's over complex brain that sits inside of my head
|
Can't remember the last things me and my friend J said
|
I don't want to be just devoid of desire
|
I don't want to be another bird on the wire
|
I don't want to be just a log on the fire
|
I don't want to be that at all
|
I got a heart rate that's erratic
|
I guess god fucked up the schematic
|
I can't hack it and I panic and that makes it go pneumatic
|
Causing landslides t-t-t-tearing up my insides
|
Sometimes I think I'll live forever, but I know I won't
|
When I really should be working on my flow I don't
|
I just sit here and read extracts from this note I wrote
|
Trying to find something that is worth a quote
|
Fixing up mad Bitches like lobotomy stitches
|
When I hit a tight rhyme see my leg it twitches
|
I ain't into this game for the fame or riches
|
Good to write tight rhymes, street poems and scriptures
|
Now what's the point I'm making? Why I am saying this out loud?
|
Am I convincing myself or pandering to the crowd?
|
You can hear every word, you would still never know me
|
Like Sean Penn could win 10 Oscars but he'll still be Spicoli
