Keep it Real (Middle Child Remix) Lyrics by Joel Bryant

Keep it Real (Middle Child Remix) - Single

2019

[Verse 1]

I’m all about money
I’m all about hits
I’ll make a track and I hope that it sticks
I’m at the line and I don’t hit bricks
I’ll take a fine just get it done quick
I built a brand with all of my sticks
I will not lie, I don’t have a hit
All of my shits have potential to hit
Im on a wave but I must admit
I want this life but it scare me to shit
So I pray to God to keep me equipped
Please give me knowledge
And please and give me sense
Please allow me to see through the fence
See through the traps
That evil has set
Walking the path and watching my step
I took a journey away from myself
Came out aggressive
I came from a different perspective
Calling them out
For showing their doubt
Called out some rappers and questioned their manners
I took a few shots
And I took a few risks
I kept on working and praying for hits
Iced out my pain but it’s flashing again
Pushed it all down but it’s scratching again
Lost in my thoughts every now and again
Keep it all real and I tell how I feel

[Hook]

I always gotta try to keep it real
Use the music to just say how I feel
I cannot conceal
Thoughts and pain will be revealed
I gotta keep it real

[Verse2]

( Aye aye aye)
I struggled through issues with trust
My heart is turning to dust
Cause people keep playing so much
Even a few on my team
Tried to throw me down stream
So I cut them out my life
Lose some of my self everytime
Can’t even remember the old me
Only cry alone at home
Cause I leaned not to do it front of company, to many times they stab from under me
Too many times where I’m lead on to nothing
Emotional hours
Just watching the clock strike
Why have I been so trusting
I just keep letting them in
Letting em snatch up my heart
And run with the win


[Hook]

I always gotta try to keep it real
Use the music to just say how I feel
I cannot conceal
Thoughts and pain will be revealed
I gotta keep it real

[ Verse 3]
(Aye ,Aye )
Today’s love is so emotionless
Sex ,sleep ,pain and brokenness
We run from our problems to hide in a bottle
Go fall for a model
Then run from the Gospel
Lie to ourselfs
While people talk shit and pray we won’t excel
Then pray that we won’t rebel
I gotta watch my back nowadays days
Not even famous and they wanna end my living ways
Pray for protection from every way
Pray for my safety
And pray for my family

[Hook 2]
I just poured somethin' in my cup
I've been wantin' somethin' I can feel
Promise I am never lettin' up
I always gotta try to keep it real
Use the music to just say how I feel
I cannot conceal
Thoughts and pain will be revealed
I gotta keep it real
