Real Lyrics

Why'd you have to make it personal
Why'd you have to make it personal
Words cut deep like something surgical
Maybe take a hit of something burnable

I'm just tryna keep it
Real real real real
I'm just tryna keep it
Real real real real
I ain't giving no handouts but
I'm standing here with my hand out
For real
Now this wasn't a part of the deal
So damn right imma let you know how I feel

Imma really level with you
So to tell you the truth
I see a while lot of potential in you
But to tell you the truth
No I ain't playing with you
And you're mistaken of you're taking me for some kind of fool

I'm just tryna keep it
Real real real real
I'm just tryna keep it
Real real real real
I ain't giving no handouts but
I'm standing here with my hand out
For real
Now this wasn't a part of the deal
So damn right imma let you know how I feel

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
