I see Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up Besides See, you're listening to the Daily Game, the compilation of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I've found inspiring and helped me through the game of life. Today's quote is something I keep in mind is stay focused. Keeping it real is not keeping it real to other people. It's being true to yourself. Therefore, only you know if you're truly keeping it real that it is a big one. Everybody,

y'all keep it real, keep it real. So now what you do is you go out and you try to keep it real to other people. You're trying to make them think you're real. You getting tats. You didn't want tats, but you're doing it because you think it makes you look hard or whatever, because you're trying to pose like that's what real looks like. I'm just using that as an example. I don't have any tattoos because everybody in my neighborhood was tatting themselves up. I'm like, nah, cops

call them descriptive marks or scars. So I'm like, I ain't putting nothing on my body, So me not getting a tattoo was a tattoo. It was me keeping it real. Understand I never smoke weed when I was growing up. Oh Jesus, like, you're a little homie, hit the weed. I'm like, nah, I don't want to. Were you a bitch if you don't hit the weed? Well, if I'm a bitch, why don't you make me hit the weed? Or why are you tripping? But at that moment, I

kept it real. I kept it real to myself. Now, all the homies, no, I don't get high, So next time somebody tries to get high, they're like, oh, trade don't get high and stand me. So you have to be real to yourself. Being original and being an individual to what you want to do. That's keeping it real. If you want to go to school, that's keeping it real. Every you truly want to do is keeping it real.

You understand me. You could be faking like you're real and you're as far from keeping it real as possible because it's not you. That ain't you. You've somebody else but you. I'm keeping it real, nah, and keeping it real also, ain't about talking about every damn thing. Shut your mouth. Somebody asks you a question, know what to answer and know what not to answer. Keeping it real. Ain't just saying everything. That's just talking too much, all right, So you want to be a true boss, be you.

Everybody will respect that. The real people will respect real. They say real, no's real, and that's true. This has been another Ice Cole fact from me iced team. Listening again tomorrow when I drop some wisdom on your ass. Till then, stay safe, stay smart, and stay hustler.
