Lyrics
Always saying what you ain't oh keep it real
Expressing frustration with someone who talks about being genuine but fails to do so.
But you can't oh i don't feel anything oh
Highlighting the inability of the person to feel genuine emotions.
God damn all this pain oh
Expressing deep emotional pain or distress.
Ima ride on anything oh always taking
Commitment to confront challenges regardless of the circumstances.
But you can't hold… keep it real
Reiterating the theme of honesty and authenticity.
No you ain't oh
Asserting that the person being addressed is not genuine.
Bring a bad bitch to benihana eat
Describing a confident and attractive companion taken to a restaurant (Benihana).
How you real you be capping in ya sleep
Criticizing someone for pretending to be real even in their sleep.
Pull the foreign through the hood
Driving an expensive car through the neighborhood.
Every street …on smoke
Indicating a willingness to confront challenges and face adversity.
On pills on lean
Mentioning the use of drugs such as pills and lean (codeine-promethazine mixture).
Don't trip my trap trampoline
Reassurance that the speaker is resilient and won't be affected negatively.
Im blue all these hunnit's on me im good
Feeling confident and financially stable with a reference to money.
I don't need you for a thing god damn
Declaring independence and self-sufficiency.
I don't need you for a thing
Repeating the idea of not needing anyone for support or assistance.
Always saying what you ain't oh keep it real
Reiterating frustration with false claims of authenticity.

Bring a choppa to the party its a fiest

How you got it on lock i got the key
Questioning the authenticity of the person's claim to dominance.
All that thinking that you hot
Pointing out that the person claiming to be "hot" is agitated or in trouble.
Got you in heat im cool
Remaining calm and unaffected despite external pressures.
All these pointers on me don't trip
Not being swayed by external opinions or influences.
Ima keep it in the streets im blue
Commitment to maintaining authenticity even in challenging situations.
Smoking sherbert in a leaf im good
