Keep it Real Lyrics

What is the story behind lagu Keep it Real?
Berawal dari emosi gw yg sdikit terusik saat mendengar orang2 berkata stay real ato keep it real. So many people did say that all d time tapi apakah mereka mengerti definisi dari keep it real or stay real itu sendiri?

Well taken from the dictionary, keep it real is the action of being true to the code of ethics of one's self, culture, and environment.

Intinya mungkin by acting real, u're not tryin 2 fake anythin. Be true 2 urself and others. Balik lagi ke kode etik ato kode moral.

Nah masalahnya banyak banget nih yg bilang that dey're keepin it real..but in fact what dey did was just hurting otha people's feelin.. and sayin bad stuff di belakang.. semacam backtabber mungkin yah?

bisa juga berupa apa yg diucapkan di mulut ngga sesuai dengan tindakan.. hypocrite? ato membual dari keadaan yg ada agar bisa diterima di suatu kumpulan..where u might wanna pimp it hard

all those things I said mungkin banyak ditemui di realita sehari2.. i mean u're free to do anything u want... bahkan ada theory yg sedikit banyak menyinggung masalah ini.. impression management theory.. dimana poeple will try try hard to impress the otha people in order to get sumthin from them..either menyamakan tindakan, memuji berlebihan, hanya untuk sejumput reward... it does exist.. dan kalau sifatnya tidak berlebihan mungkin tidak akan apa2.. tapi yg namanya berlebihan pastinya akan mengarah ke sesuatu yg bersifat fake..

anyhow.. mo fakenya kaya apa, pada satu titik, seseorang akan merasa kehilangan arah and then u will understand dat u gotta keep it real and back to the roots.. semacam menyadari realita yg terjadi dan try to be real by doing the things u love at least...by giving respect 2 urself and to the people who were already there before u.. by treatin each otha just like u're treatin urself

So dat's the stories behind dis song.. dan gw mengajak Soul ID ikutan di lagu ini.. coz i think they're being real all these time.. here goes d lyrics..

KEEP IT REAL

clap ur hands everybody if u got what it takes
coz she's d one they call Y A C K O
and these are d breaks
clap ur hands everybody if u got what it takes
coz we're d one they call SOUL ID
and these are d breaks

Yacko:
u gotta keep it real
knowin d deal
not just showin off ur skill
and creatin a plot 2 kill how people feel
i kno everybody has an ego to follow
but it's not a permission to eat their heart out & swallow
ini bukan masalah siapa yang lebih unggul
walo kau bilang hebatmu seperti rasul
kudapat pengaruhi hati yang masygul
racuni bagai nanah yang ada dalam bisul
namun kuhanya pengembara berlirik
bermodal tinta kertas secarik
di bawah panas matahari yang semakin terik
ditemani angin bertiup seakan berbisik
seperti busa kumenghapus masa lalu dan
aku menyerap masa depan
but i neva forget who was there before i even exist
u kno who u are i dont have 2 say it
TAK PERNAH LUPUT SYKURI SETIAP DETIK
it's true i wont let air matamu menitik

(HOOK)
SOUL ID & yacko:
you gotta KEEP IT REAL
knowin d deal
esoyuelaidi yacko when it comes to bein in true
yeah u kno dat we do

Drusteelo & Tabib Qiu:
IF U DUNNO ME BY NOW I DOUBT U EVA KNO ME
i neva won an AMI jauh dari celebrity
but tell me what's realer than dis
i got ma mic ma crew SOUL ID let's do dis
stay humble stay positive bukan exclusive artis
im in dis for d love man bukan sekedar gimmick
u've heard dat before so what
musikkotakku is hipidihop and u dun stop
until infinity jati diriku is my refleksi
duibidubidam yes im the guy in gamelan
dru ST still represent ma boy jiggy
Y-A-C-K-O and esoyuelaidi
i'm nukie or tabib qiu qiu atau
apalah you you mau panggil nama qiu qiu walau
seluruh dunia ngga bakal tau
tapi tau ngga kamu kalo Y-A-C-K-O konco SD-ku
ga ada buku yang kujadikan sandaran
ga ada guru siapa yg jadi panutan
SOK IDOLA BUKAN CUMAN MAPAN TANDA KUTIP
mentalitas sakit diselotip mereka yang wajib
ku ambil pelajaran buang kotoran kaya sunatan
ga usah sungkan aku bukan cuman teman
bagimu bagiku kulihat semua jadi satu
soul id yacko now siapa kamu

LOVE!
