lirik lagu j-raw - checkmate (keep it real)
a good man once said
what’s fake will always die
what’s real will last the test of time
whenever i characterize a rhyme -n-lyst research but can’t find
the catalyst to why
my work defines perfection
like the divine heaven
you can’t deny the ending
my words amplify aggression
like severe thunder storms
lemme discover more, under the floor, i
can’t deny, i’m the answer to the question you asking, i’m the rapper, blessing you with p-ssion, here’s a random confession, my progression is a reflection of how adolescence should be, see i like the cl-ssical chimes, before me, humility and hustle, combined is the moral to see in my simple but deep story
and thats the force that be
blowing the birds out of sky
there is
no disguise, as i torch the flows with words out of my, mind
no surprise, as i’m reborn to know this curse, i have grown with lies
it’s the normal prize, in a mortals eyes, but when we die is the only time we truly become notarized
and immortalized, it’s noted i
kept it real, never talk and slide
when im walking in the night, i find a way to shine, i do what i gotta do to survive in the field, there was a time, not long ago, when i couldn’t thrive, i wasn’t blind but i couldn’t see a single sight without the wrong over right, the dark over the light and i don’t wanna go there again in my d-mn life, where?
yall might say
don’t ask something you don’t wanna know answer to
but i’ll answer you if ask me this? where you from? who the f-ck is you? what the f-ck is the truth
well i was born in long island, but does it really matter where i’m from, or who i am, i believe firmly it’s only important what i represent and my natural plan
i got that positive att-tude, never wanna pop a gat at you but that to doesn’t mean i can’t shoot, b-tt f-ck the fake propaganda my dude, this is the slander i use, i know it doesn’t matter to you because you believe lies and ignore what’s true but
this is who i am
hip hop
i’m not heaven sent, or h-ll bent, not a devil or a saint, hiding under pain i’m just my own human being, i’m not a thug or a punk, i’m not rich i’m not poor, i’m right spank in the middle of the game not big, not little, not dead but not alive, not a lover or a hater, not a gunner or a runner, i reveal my fate, all i know is, i am real and not fake, i don’t conceal, i try to stay in top shape, not a type of a n-gga to get in a car chase
just sleep all day, rap all night
continue the cycle till i get recognized
cuz if real recognize real i hope the world isn’t an illusion, based on losing, don’t talk about shooting if you scared to die, don’t talk about looting if you scared of crime
cuz if you stay that high, you float like a b-tterfly
but then be stung by the bee cuz
bullsh-t catches up to you quickly
don’t ignore your problems
ignorance doesn’t dissolve em
confront em and solve em
as fast as possible
procrastination is self devastation
go for self prevelation
don’t fall under temptation and be a snake of satan
engrave your placement
and if you have a dream do what i did, chase it
