Real? - Ice T

Real is a word people don’t really wanna deal with

Real is a difference between the way things should be

And they way things are!

Things should be beautiful and everybody should get along

Things are really fucked up!

Opportunity isn’t available to everybody

Motherfuckers do to jail

Men and women do not always get along

A woman doesn’t think twice about referring to her man as a dog

But then breaks down when she is called a Bitch

That’s really fucked up!

— Real!

The first four letters in reality;

You’re Ready To Get There!

That’s what this is all about

A lot of my homies are really incarcerated, locked up!

In Federal Penitentiaries and State Institutions will never come home

This album is dedicated to them

And my homies that have died and passed on in the past few years

Really never get a chance to hear this record

My music is designed for the individuals out there

who are ready to deal with the truth

The truth is;

that anything that is alive

It do whatever it has to do, to remain alive

It’s called survival

And no matter how cold and fucked up it may seen

That’s real!
