Quote by Tone Loc
I lived that life for real, so to talk about it was like a joke, you know what I mean?
Summary
The speaker suggests that they have experienced the situations being discussed firsthand, making it difficult to discuss those experiences lightly. To them, talking about it seems trivializing because the seriousness and personal significance they associate with it cannot easily be conveyed through words. The phrase "like a joke" implies that discussing it would undermine the gravity and authenticity of their lived experiences.
