Simplified Meaning:

When people hear violent music or see aggressive behavior, they often assume that the musicians are promoting bad actions. However, the musicians believe they are simply telling it like it is—sharing the hard facts about their lives and surroundings. For example, consider a rapper from a tough neighborhood filled with crime and poverty. His songs might sound harsh and aggressive, but he is just describing the reality he sees every day. Instead of encouraging violence, he wants listeners to understand the struggles and challenges faced by people in his community. People can apply this understanding in their own lives by not judging quickly and trying to understand why someone is expressing themselves in a certain way. When we take the time to listen to the deeper message, we might find important truths about society that we weren't aware of before. Recognizing this can help open up conversations about needed changes and empathy for different experiences.
