Why? Yeah, baby, why? Baby, why?

Yeah, baby, why?

They only tell you what you wanna hear

They never tell you how they really feel (Never say shit)

Baby, tell me, what's the fucking deal?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Tell me, tell me, why, why can't you keep it real?

Baby, tell me, tell me lies all the time

Can't keep it real

Baby, them lies all the time, how do you feel?

I'm feeling, feeling hella faded

I'm feeling, feeling like I made it

The people, people, they been hatin'

But I'm just waitin', meditated

But I love to work, yeah, I love to grind

Thinkin' 'bout me, thinkin' 'bout you

How we gon' shine

I been thinkin' you been trippin', baby, you don't act blah

I been thinkin', when I'm winnin', you ain't never seen me shine

You never liked to work, I was workin' every night

You was gettin' 'head of me 'cause  you knew that I was right

I was thinkin' 'bout the plan, I was tryna be the guy

You was tryna slow me down and I never knew why

They only tell you what you wanna hear

They never tell you how they really feel

Baby, tell me, what's the fucking deal?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Lies all the time, can't keep it real

Them lies all the time, how do you feel?

Tell me why I gotta change everything that I'm doin', feel the same

Girl, you know you've been hangin' with it

And I think that you just complain

Girl, I don't think you use your mind, lady, you don't use your brain

But I'm just really tryna think about it

Think about the rings, you know that I been tryna get it

I been in it for the rings

You know that ever since I started, I been goin' in

And, baby, you been cold-hearted

Lovin' you the same (Girl, I just don't get it)

They only tell you what you wanna hear

They never tell you how they really feel

Baby, tell me, what's the fucking deal?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Why, why can't you keep it real?

Lies all the time, can't keep it real

Them lies all the time, how do you feel?
