Review

October, 22nd 2016

Rap from the first seconds, with almost unending recitative in all 2:37. Voice of artist – Ice Cube – is pretty good. In the song he was doing the emphasizing of the letters "a" and "u", making rhymes to the words with such letters almost constantly. Nothing complicated, conventional back yard rap, with the support of almost inaudible voices in the background. The second top performer – Common – enters at the beginning of the 2nd minute. It seems that they sing separately. Reference: Ice Cube & Common - Real People on HNHH

Real People Song Lyrics

[Intro]

Come with it

(The only race on the planet is the human one)

Real talk

(Spread love)

[Verse 1: Ice Cube]

We used to fight and fuss, we used to yell and cuss

We used to cock and bust now look at us

We done turned to ashes and dust to dust

I shoulda turned the cuz and returned the love

I shoulda passed the bud to all the bloods

And leave them slugs with them pigs in the mud

Who the f**k turned 2Pac into a thug?

All I used to get was a pound and a hug

I remember when we used to hate them drugs

Now we can't rap without being f**ked up

High in the club but you sound like a drunk

Hard in the street but a jailhouse punk

Me and that nigga, yeah we used to bring the funk

Now we got love and respect like a monk

Understand that we got a lot in common

Homie you in the same boat that I'm in

[Hook]

I'm callin' all the real people (real people)

Let 'em know that the change gon' come

Tell me where the real people? (Real people)

It's time to wake up and stand as one

Callin' all the real people (real people)

You still got our faith nah we ain't none

Tell me where the real people out there

The real people out there

[Verse 2: Common]

It's a good day when it's me and O'Shea

It's like the times we cheered for O.J

I say "Mike," Cube say "Kobe"

But ain't no more beef, I put that on chief

Blaow, a little homie dead in the streets

It's like the day they compared us to meat

Glad Farrakan prepared us to meet

Now me and bro bringing meals to the meek

Think about my homie locked up like a Rasta

Dude in my ear askin' me about the Oscars

I build with the gods to show improvement

Hard to complain, real people goin' through it

I know the movement like I was Huey Newton

Can't explain why youngin's are shootin'

The revolution will not be on the ground

The revolution is who I am, God damn

[Hook]

I'm callin' all the real people (real people)

Let 'em know that the change gon' come

Tell me where the real people? (Real people)

It's time to wake up and stand as one

Callin' all the real people (real people)

You still got our faith nah we ain't none

Tell me where the real people out there

The real people out there

[Outro]

I don't care what your color is

All my real people, real people love this, love this

I don't care what your color is

All my real people, real people love this, love this

I don't care what your color is

All my real people, real people love this, love this

I don't care what your color is

All my real people, real people love this, love this

Be the change
