Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you that somebody?
[Verse 2]
When Aaliyah was alive it was cool to be a tomboy, Tommy Boy fly
Martin and Tommy, boy, a cold world, we all tryin' to survive
Talkin' Cold World, where only drugs been supplied
Respect A1 ****, my drive A5
(A1, A5)
Only plan for some **** was the plan to stay alive
Is a loss a blessing? Only a few of my friends died
I know another side of graves, some always at a graveside
Bad boys was the only ones I liked
Most my ex-boyfriends all got two strikes
(Bad boys)
That's at least two lives, I know **** that double that
Got at least two wives and they both got kids and they both age five
That kinda drama too live but Aaliyah ain't alive
I wish we gave Aaliyah two lives, to catch this wave that I'm on
You need at least two tides, ****, I'm bustin' till everybody rise, ****
Still singin' Mary Blige, what I've come to realize
(Real love)
Real love from somebody ain't about the gift or prize
Are you that somebody? Like Aaliyah prophesied?
Are you real? Back and forth with you guys
I ain't 'bout to argue with none of y'all, today's a good vibe
I'ma treat myself, lemme get a Super Size
As my cup runneth over, it's fulfillin' to me, this ain't E.T. News
I done went sci-fi, I'm closer to God, I done went sky high
Been alienated so much that I must be fly
I am who I am, I don't rock a disguise
To be more than a woman now comes with some tithes
[Verse 3]
Are you that somebody?
Are you that somebody?
Yeah, are you that somebody that's gon' keep it real with yourself?
(Keep it real)
Keep it, keep it real, keep it real with yourself
(Keep it real)
Keep it, keep it real, keep it real with yourself
(Keep it real)
[Verse 4]
More than a woman, real enough to rock the boat
(Keep it real)
I don't fit the status quo, blow they mind, Maseo
(Keep it real)
Really fine, I'm like another kind of fine, you should know
(Keep it real)
Get you somebody that can still do both
(Real)
Back and forth, that's somebody that can play both coasts
FloJo, stay in my lane, that's a winner for sure
I don't care what you got to say about me no more
Double Dutchin' when I'm tuckin' and my back on the ropes
I be chillin', ain't got no feelings when I'm ridin' the slope
Skeezers just be skeezers, I'm just dope
I'm here to shake the system up, we gon' rock the boat
'Cause I'm that somebody that you still need to know, squad
[Verse 5]
Keep it real
Keep it real
Keep it real
Real
Keep it real
Keep it real
Keep it real
Real
I'm a real one, let me put you on game, I'm a real one
I'm a real one
Yeah, I know you love me 'cause of my Tommy Boy vibe
I know you love me, got a Tommy Boy vibe
Rockin' braids or I could put the heels on
Let me put you on game, I'm a real one
I'm a real one
