Keep It True Lyrics - All Balls Don't Bounce - Aceyalone

you know we keep it true - we keep it true we keep it true we 

keep it true 

you know we keep it true - we got to keep it true we got to keep 

it true 

we got to keep it true - you know what we do you know what 

we do 

we got to keep it true 

relax your mind w/the music - you know what we do you know what we do 

sit back and vibe w/this true shit 

this isn't really what you think it is 

that is if you're even thinkin' in the first place 

the first place isn't always the winner 

and winnin' isn't everything 

and this is not a race 

i am not a android i am not a mongoloid 

i am not annoyed by the void in your brain 

this is not a trick son you are not a victim 

you are just a man be -boyed out the game 

let me explain 

Abstract are you fresh? 

ain't nobody fresher 

but it's hard to get around w/out some clown tryin' to test ya 

Acey are you dope? 

dopest in the world 

i give it to the moms and pops i give it to the boys and girls 

oh so you a family man? 

aren't we all aren't we all 

yes we are 

trying to make jams man and expand my repertoire 

we got to keep it true we got to keep it true - relax your mind w/the music 

you know what we do you know what we do - sit back and vibe w/this true shit 

well i be arrangin' thoughts in my brain cell family 

embarking on incredible creative routes 

understanding me is truth shining like a lie 

when i say break wide i mean take trips not just in your ride 

in your mind 

cause when you left you're right on time 

the sun'll come out tomorrow and it'll set in the west 

so i don't sweat the rest 

who want to inhale stress 

keep it true 

you know we keep it true - we keep it true we keep it true we 

keep it true 

you know we keep it true - you know what we do you know what we 

do 

we got to keep it true - the W the W the W 

we got to keep it true 

relax your mind w/the music - and keep it true and keep it true 

sit back and vibe w/this true shit 

the world is full of bullshitters 

liars and triers and quitters 

could-a-beens want to be's thought-i-was isn't-i-is's 

and everybody in your business 

damn 

now what is really your main aim 

when you are just a blotch and a stain on the planetary plane 

just another name in the phone book of fame 

bustin' out the seams it seems you haven't gained enough 

to be seen in the right scene 

your thoughts they seem so convincing hmmm 

but your actions don't follow through 

remember 

never say never because it never comes true 

your thoughts they seem so convincing for instance 

you told me that you're a level higher 

liar 

element of desire earth and the wind and the fire 

not 

you ain't even halfway hot 

not lukewarm you don't got no form 

you (...?...) 

all caught up in bein' waterproof 

when you shoulda been tryin' to catch up w/the truth 

for all intent and purposes your life on earth ain't worth it's weight in 

gold 

that's probably why you get blowed 

cause people tell people things and people sell people things 

that are useless and irrelevant 

and it stifles my intelligence 

i stay true 

you know we keep it true - and we keep on and keep on and keep on 

you know we keep it true - we keep it true we keep it true 

you can mumble jumble if you got somethin' to say 

but i doubt it's gonna affect me i row my boat steady 

everready is my battery description 

meaning i'm equipped to take long trips 

and my brain cells overload when i get blowed 

gotta bring it down there's a point where the joint stops 

being passed through the fingers of a rhyme (?singers?) 

the smoke from my last hit still lingers 

bring us your tired and your weary and your poor 

i'm a take you higher while you're hearing metaphors 

and similes 

assimilation of new creation 

mind emancipation 

rhymes command the nation 

and so on and therefor and such and such 

dust to dust i thrust from the ground 

w/no where else to go but up L.A. is where i'm found 

throwin' up sets and blowin' up sets and goin' up Stepney 

about to get a heavy track 

(?or jimmy in the spot?) 

or plenty of hip hop goin' round three 

heavyweights it's your time so register 

foundate your legacy we serve all them replicas 

true style true style? 

true style new style 

you know we keep it true - we keep it true we keep it true we keep it true 

you know we keep it true - the W and every crew we keep it true 

we got to keep it true - from me to you do what you do just keep it 

true 

we got to keep it true - relax your mind w/the music 

now i'm gonna take my last verse on a good note 

you better prepare your footnotes 

hold your wigs tight 

open up the middle 

(?center me in the more?) 

words are the foundation action is the building and unity 

and the concept to result in logic and the use of logic 

now the object to be neutral partial to a judgement 

and the subject's concentration here is the pop quiz 

what hip hop is 

you know we keep it true - relax your mind w/the music 

we got to keep it true - sit back and vibe to this true shit 

the wrong thing to do is stop
