What's Real Lyrics

She's strutting down the street
With a diamond necklace the size of a dime
It looks real nice when it shines
It lights up the world around her but it's only in her mind

He's speeding up the road in his red Ferrari
Goes so fast always in a hurry
What's the piont if you get dead in a scurry
You'll be leaving it all behind

What a shame it is
(Doesn't have to be that way)
So lame it is
(To have to pay to play)
A game like this
(That's the way it is)
Unless ya know

What's real
(What's real)
Is the beauty inside your soul
What's real
(What's real)
Is that everyone's gonna get old

What's real, is the time that you take to check in
Not the sale of material things they fade
And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real
All ya left with is how ya feel

She gotta go gotta fly doesn't stop to kiss her kid
Be good is all she said as she's grabbing her keys
And escaping her life she said she'd be home soon but she lied

And her kid tells her friends at school
That her mom is really cool smiles for the camera
Gets her face in all the magazines
It's a superficial beauty scene

And they keep in touch
(But she's such a lonely girl)
But it don't mean much
(Livin' in a lonely world)
C'uz I heard her say
(Tryin' to be brave she)
Can't help her wondering
What's real
(What's real)
Is the beauty inside your soul
What's real
(What's real)
Is that everyone's gonna get old

What's real, is the time that you take to check in
Not the sale of material things they fade
And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real
All ya left with is how ya feel

Love each other while you still got time
(While you still have time)
Tell your mother she's been on your mind
(She's been on your mind)
Kiss your brother just 'cuz he looks fine
Wear the red dress, love at first sight
Put the top down, feel the sunshine, yeah

What's real
(What's real)
Is the beauty inside your soul
What's real
(What's real)
Is that everyone's gonna get old

What's real, is the time that you take to check in
Not the sale of material things they fade
And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real

What's real
(What's real)
Is the beauty inside your soul
What's real
Is that everyone's gonna get old

What's real, is the time that you take to check in
Not the sale of material things they fade
And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real
(That's what's real)

And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real
(That's what's real)
And all ya left with is how ya feel and that's what's real
(That's what's real)
