Be Real

A wise one once said Showing off is fool’s glory So why is everyone so obsessed With telling everyone untrue stories They flex with all their nice things Like kings and queens with white wings They’re living in the here and now It all just seems so temporary Talk with me about existence I believe you know how I’m done with all the small talk Let’s be the change and walk the walk It’s only a matter of time Make each and every word count Each sentence will be paramount Dialogue isn’t such a crime Oh, be real with me I’m tired of all the messing around Oh, be real with me I am lost Let me be found Let’s talk about something Have a real conversation Everyone seems so caught up With money and infatuation Just explain your subtext I have to know what’s on your mind Communications can be so disappointing When they are the forgettable kind I’m done with all the small talk Let’s be the change and walk the walk It’s only a matter of time Make each and every word count Each sentence will be paramount Dialogue isn’t such a crime Oh, be real with me I’m tired of all the messing around Oh, be real with me I am lost Let me be found Let’s talk about something Have a real conversation Everyone seems so caught up With money and infatuation Like Romeo and Juliet Let’s go, no need for ready, set I can’t believe in just nothing I need to know my happy ending Putting on a million faces Doesn’t cover all the bases Open up now that’s the key Your mind is my new poetry Oh, be real with me I’m tired of all the messing around Oh, be real with me I am lost Let me be found Let’s talk about something Have a real conversation Everyone seems so caught up With money and infatuation Let’s talk about something Have a real conversation Everyone seems so caught up With money and infatuation
