Lyrics

0:16Woke up today said I'm gettin' it right
0:20Yeah
0:20Been up some days and I been up some nights
0:22Some nights some days
0:24I caught the plane and I didn't look twice
0:25So
0:28All for the simplest life
0:29Simple life
0:33Doot-doot doot-doot
0:33Doot doot
0:37Doot-doot doot-doot
0:41Doot doot
0:47She say the little things matter they show her she needed
0:49If you can provide 'em then she won't be leavin'
0:51The man of my family can't be no teachers
0:53You learn what you see and no
0:55We didn't see it
0:56Money can't be the security for her
0:58But it's important even if you poor
1:00White picket fence and a wreath on the door
1:02We from the basement concrete's on the floor
1:04Concrete on the deck
1:05With a rim I'm callin' check
1:06In the simple autumn weather give my daughter all that's left
1:08When her father laid to rest
1:09The money never made me I'm more than I invest
1:12In the mornin' I'm a mess
1:13But wakin' up next to
1:15You
1:15Makes it worth it
1:16Yeah
1:16Said I put in more effort
1:18Yeah
1:18S**t I can't be perfect but I
1:20Woke up today said I'm gettin' it right
1:24Yeah
1:24Been up some days and I been up some nights
1:26Some nights some days
1:28I caught the plane and I didn't look twice
1:29So
1:32All for the simplest life
1:33Simple life
1:36I put the pain in the s**t that I write
1:40Can't get frustrated gotta give it some time
1:42Some nights some days
1:44Hop off the train at the end of the line
1:48So
1:48That was a simpler time
1:49Simple time
1:53Doot-doot doot-doot
1:58Doot doot
2:01Doot-doot doot-doot
2:05Doot doot
2:08Thank the sky for slowin' time s**t got too complicated
2:12Pace myself the paper swells I'm patient not complacent
2:16Calm like the sea when it meets the horizon no
2:19No one can no one can shake me not even Poseidon no
2:24Live long and sing my song so Black and free
2:27That's all I really want this life to be
2:32Green trees blossom 'round my seeds
2:36With green stashed with the lock and key
2:39Yeah
2:40Wouldn't that be perfect
2:41If the world ran on fulfilled purpose
2:43And not persons worked like they purchases
2:45fillin' purses of wealthy serpents
2:47Kneel down and look up fillin' up the place of worship
2:50Prayin' for days that hurt less
2:51Karma come break the curses
2:53Maybe that's what my worth is
2:54Paint a new picture perfect
2:56Woke up today said I'm gettin' it right
2:59Yeah
3:00Been up some days and I been up some nights
3:02Some nights some days
3:04I caught the plane and I didn't look twice

3:11I put the pain in the s**t that I write
