I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'be aware that you can make it come' is the definition.
The answer and definition are not the same part of speech.

'true' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'true' could be 'real' (synonyms) and 'real' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ise' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for realise that I've seen before include "catch on" , "Understand - cash in" , "Achieve, make" , "Cotton on" , "Ears lie (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
