Keepin' It Real
I stand before you today - to help YOU find your way
To live this thang called life and be empowered by its strife
But I don't expect you to feel like I feel; becuz you can't without Keepin' It Real!
It's not just another cute cliché'; but its that authority in the words you say
Knowledge is power! - yet you remain powerless
You go to church by force - but my God ain't pressed
You claim "hmm, I ain't neva scared; but you fear everything
You wait on someone else before you'll dance, shout or sing!
Let me help you out - the Bible states "wisdom is the principle thing"
But how would you know? That's what studying would bring
The very thing eatin' at you, that you don't care to share
Could be my very key to FREEDOM; but why would you care
Playin' dumb is just as bad as not knowin' for real
But you'll talk about somebody else knowin' you have the same deal
So let me holla at you for a sec - and yes, you can holla back
Backbiting is for wussies and being a fake is whack
The "Truth shall make you free" - ain't some booty appeal
It's just a Jesus sayin' , "You know what I'm sayin' -
HOW 'BOUT KEEPIN IT REAL!!!

The priest, realistically considered, is the most immoral of men, for he is always willing to sacrifice every other sort of good to the one good of his arcanum -- the vague body of mysteries that he calls the truth.
-- H. L. Mencken
