bringin the revolution to streets
droppin messages over beats
what's real is the topic before i began to drop it
i made du'a to the Lord, make these lyrics your sword
and if i'm spittin' the truth then gimme reward
my intention is pure i'm not intent on sowing discord
not the type cat to be bought they must've forgot
that it wasn't the deputy, it was the sheriff i shot
remember back when the world i knew was only my block
my purpose in life never really gave it much thought
what's real is making time for our kids
so what if the money's tight they're worth more than the biz
some separate cause it's too hard to sacrifice
parents are selfish and it's the children who pay the price
might have to work for the man just to keep the flow steady
put the children to bed, peaceful huggin' their teddy
not asking you to martyr for Palestine
your sacrifice is to support and give your family time
kids think they know the meaning of real
i'm bringin' the truth that's why i never have to pack steel
kids think they know the meaning of real
it's not about the papes, son; it's how you earn the next meal
what's real is having a cause, forget the applause
rather give to the poor never felt we needed to floss
so just keep those diamonds under the earth
'cause they bring death to my people plus they're not as precious as birth
what's real is those who put their lives on the line
speaking the truth is more dangerous than holding a nine
to your head Rachel Corrie i'd never say that she's dead
martyrs will live for ever should've been us instead
facing a tank in Tienanmen square made us aware
the best weapon is truth and not he bullets we share
kids think they know the meaning of real
i'm bringin' the truth that's why i never have to pack steel
kids think they know the meaning of real
it's not about the papes, son; it's how you earn the next meal
what's real is not to criticize but come up with solutions
life is short so we gotta work to build institutions
halfway houses battered women's shelters and more
foundations for education and less money for war
credit unions and banks that don't steal from the people
laws that reflect that all men were created equal
news networks that show truth when it's controversial
record labels making hardcore bump the commercial
what's real is the way we earn the next meal
it's easy to steal rats got it in their nature to squeal
it's not the papes let's think about the way they were made
maybe you hustle or maybe is just you than got played
there's definitely more money in crack than droppin' knowledge on tracks
you laugh at the 9 to 5 the people breakin' their backs
they count money in cents while you measure in stacks
just watch the angel of death, he's vicious when he attacks
kids think they know the meaning of real
i'm bringin' the truth that's why i never have to pack steel
kids think they know the meaning of real
it's not about the papes, son; it's how you earn the next meal
