Keep It Real

Keep It Real

[A – D – F#m – E]

1:
Come down from your high horse.
My life doesn’t revolve around you.
Get out of your ivory tower.
Open your eyes and see the truth.

I don’t find you so clever,
so smart and so beautiful.
That I would fall to pieces
if you don’t stick around.

2:
You think you’re so clever
with all the games you play.
You think you impress me
with all the things you say.

This theatrical play
is getting in the way.
It’s getting old.
I’m going cold.
And soon I’ll be on my way.

Chorus:
Please stop pretending
to be someone you’re not x2
Keep it real.
Let’s end this masquerade.
Take of your mask
and show me your true face.

3:
I didn’t change my hair
to look cute for you.
I didn’t buy this new dress
because you want me too.

You gotta understand
That if you wanna be my man
Take a stand, hold my hand
and walk the plank.

C:
[D – A – F#m – E]
Don’t be afraid
to show me your scars.
Don’t be afraid
to show who you are.
You don’t have to be a King or a superstar.
Just show me
who you
truly are.

Chorus:
Please stop pretending
to be someone you’re not x2
Keep it real.
Let’s end this masquerade.
Take of your mask
and show me your true face.

Outro:
Take of your mask
And show me the true you.
Take of your mask
And let me love you.
Just keep it real.
