Make It Real
Dana Glover
Testimony (2002)

Where we walk, down the road, everyday

With a plastic smile and we wave like we're in a parade



Oh, and then we pass one another

And nothing but a, "How do you do?"

Oh, but it make me smile

If we'd stop for awhile

And just give me the truth now



And we can make it real

Open your heart

'Cause that's when you start to truly feel

We can make it real

Look in my eyes

You feel it inside, yeah, I know you will

We can make it real, now now

And we can make it



Let your mind, take a walk, in the rain

Let your head roll back, taste the joy, remember the pain



'Cause we can talk about the weather

We can weather it together my friend

Yes, we can

And the sun will shine on your heart and mine

And we'll feel it again and again and again



We can make it real

Open your heart

'Cause that's when you start to truly feel

We can make it real

Look in my eyes

You'll feel it inside, yeah, I know you will

We can make it real, yeah

No, we can make it real



This life that we're livin'

It's all that we're given

It's all little precious time

'Cause now is the moment

Let your emotions breathe in the open sky, fly



Baby, try to make it real, ooo

We can make it real, now

Baby, try to make it real

Baby we can try

We can make it

We can make it real, whoa

We can make it real, whoa



Open your heart

'Cause that's when you start to truly feel

We can make it real

Look in my eyes

You'll feel it inside, yeah, I know you will

We can make it real



Open your heart

'Cause that's when you start to truly feel, now now

We can make it real

Look in my eyes

Oh, we can make it real

We can make it real, now now

Make it real
