Stay Real

[Intro: K-Rino]
Life is real simple, lest we make it hard
It’s all about staying real, man
Let’s go

[Refrain: K-Rino]
Real, real, real, real, real
Gotta stay real, real, real, real, real
No matter how much I build, I won’t stay still
But gotta stay real, real, real, real, real

[Verse 1: K-Rino]
I ain’t never gon’ cheat ya, I ain’t never gon’ stab you in the back
I won’t steal nothing from you, I ain’t never got down like that
I got my own set of issues, but I can still take time to help you
I got love for my people, man, but you can still get your face stepped through
Folks tryna get over, instead of workin’ to get on they feet
Tryna be a hood soldier, and got swallowed up on these streets
Some things that I won’t do, no matter how much money they pay
Tryna stunt—that’s the wrong move, I’m from a place where the homies don’t play
All I gotta do is treat a person like you wanna be treated
All that fake sh*t’ll get your ass deleted
Being real is a principle that we needed
Trust me with a secret, I’ll never ever repeat it, c’mon

[Refrain: K-Rino]
Real, real, real, real, real
Gotta stay real, real, real, real, real
No matter how much I build, I won’t stay still
But gotta stay real, real, real, real, real

[Verse 2: K-Rino]
Got people that’ll lie on ya, and sell you out to the police
Some say that they ride or die, but when it’s on they’ll throw you in the grease
I keep myself out of trouble though, ‘cause I’m not tryna do no time
And I don’t want your woman, bro, I got too many problems with mine
I only speak when I’m spoken to, no animosity and no hate
And everything that I hope to do, will get done man and I’ma be straight
I keep my circle real tight, man, I can’t let no new cats in
Disrespect me - that’s a fight man, a twenty-five on a scale of one to ten (keep going)
And if you real, I’ll work with you, if not don’t text, don’t call
I’m too old for the bullsh*t, if it’s out there I’m tryna get it all
I always stay motivated, I gotta make sure the plan works out
And [?], people gonna hate it, so might as well try to knock they heads off
Understand sometimes I be disappointed, when I see what’s going on these days
I know the world ain’t how we want it, but we can’t get caught up tryna follow they ways
We just gotta stay

[Refrain: K-Rino]
Real, real, real, real, real
Gotta stay real, real, real, real, real
No matter how much I build, I won’t stay still
But gotta stay real, real, real, real, real

[Verse 3: K-Rino]
I can’t fall off, I got a future to build
I’m going all out and I ain’t cuttin’ no deal
Unless it’s righteous I can’t give you a pass
I keep my eyes open, for every snake in the grass, yeah
