Be About It Lyrics

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

I ride thru the city's streets

They tried to discourage me

But their spite just encouraged me

Had love from the start

Got struck by a spark

That lit up a fire that can't be extinguished, held up or be stalled

Truth and realness mixed with uber diligence

People relate to views and experience

I'm expected to be superficial

Cause I like rap and my jewels they glisten

Prejudice costs, man the truth is missing

Facts are free

If you get to know me better I stand by you if you stand by me

Think of Pac sayin you never had a friend like me

I wanna be about it

Be real about it

I want the realest sound and

Being honest

While being modest

Don't wanna talk about it, be about it

I don't see the doubts, the clock can't be rewound

But I see the countless stars their gleam is timeless

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Can't act too important

That would make my perception distorted

I had dreams, people didn't check, they ignored it

So I still walk around with a chip on my shoulder

And glisten and show off

Stereotyped for my slang and my clothes that's a big fuckin boulder

If I can't be me that would leave me a no one

People don't know the things I've seen, now I'm older

Plus I got a long CV in a folder

So here I go just

Telling my story, shit talk at a minimum

Cause life is too real, no need to mention it

If you don't know, switch on the news so you can picture it

I wanna be about it

Be real about it

I want the realest sound and

Being honest

While being modest

Don't wanna talk about it, be about it

I don't see the doubts, the clock can't be rewound

But I see the countless stars their gleam is timeless

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I didn't come to say I'm dope or there's no equal

I wanna show people

Please understand

I wanna love my fam and love my friends

But not only when they're up and well

I wanna be there in the worst days

And support my folks like they're part of a church fam

Don't wanna think too much about yesterday, put that to rest

All about the present and the future, the past is past

All about being real, only the unmasked will last

Only the unmasked will last

Don't look to the next man, tryin to match his ass

It ain't greener on the other side, grass is grass

I wanna leave a mark on a piece of art like Leonardo

And I don't wanna talk about it I wanna be about it

I wanna be about it

Be real about it

I want the realest sound and

Being honest

While being modest

Don't wanna talk about it, be about it

I don't see the doubts, the clock can't be rewound

But I see the countless stars their gleam is timeless

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
