Simple Man

Yeah
Yow
Listen, yow

I like my wines Malbec or Rose
Indica or sativa, that is OK
Not no low grades, pop pills, no way
Used to do sports but silly games, I don't play
Started rapping, thinking 'bout it whole day
Wished I could show Sway or meet Toure
Now, sending tracks to Sirius is how I throw shade
Not a forty five, but every joint is so blaze
Sometimes, I can't believe how I did this
Burnt bridges, in the past, I was livid
But I splitted, they were caught up in their image
Now, they finished, said I'm vintage but I'm still in it
And winning, release dates and flights in my schedule
Working on myself in these fights with the devil
To whom much is given, this is life on this level
Speeding towards my goals with my right on the pedal

I'm just a simple man
Trying to live out my plan
I did the work with my own hands
It's always on principle that I stand
I'm just a simple man
Trying to live out my plan
I did the work with my own hands
It's always on principle that I stand

I was taught different, raised with morals and values
In a country where it's plural with bad news
Small place but five dead every day
We use to it anyway so we never phased
The headlines find a clever phrase
Hold your head and pray people seek a better way
So many legal routes to getting paid
Before you send some weight, send a resume
Easier said than done but too many dead from guns
If you making some money, give your bredrin some
Teach him how to fish instead of reaching for the blick
No respect for a dude that beating on his chick
Real men have codes, too many fathers missing
If you cyaa keep it real, then mi nah guh listen
Your word is your bond, check the verse in my song
I never lose myself though the herb is so strong

I'm just a simple man
Trying to live out my plan
I did the work with my own hands
It's always on principle that I stand
I'm just a simple man
Trying to live out my plan
I did the work with my own hands
It's always on principle that I stand

These days and times
How you feeling?
Can you make some noise?
Can you make some noise for DJ Sawandi
Make some noise for the city of Kingston
Make some noise for yourselves
That's lovely
Alright
