simple people
[intro] “It's just, like, just kinda slowdown and go, 'Okay, here's just a bunch of people, people, human beings in a room whose every breath is from God.'”
[chorus] Breathe in, breathe out We sing and we shout We are people, simple people
We live and we die We laugh, we cry We are people, simple people
[verse 1] They say there's no reason to be afraid Living and dying's in our DNA From conception our direction is an empty grave And the motto that we follow is to hollow out our conscious So responsible decisions aren't the ones we make
Don't want people to tell us when It seems our life story needs a little embellishing You come across boring so you make your story something people want around But living on the edge means you're a step away from falling down
Happiness is relative, happiness ain't settling Baggage getting in the way Someone had to take these things The fact is the past is distracting the masses With sadness masking the path, this is tragic
Is what you're doing right now helping your situation? Or is you're behavior the anchor to your elevation? We want to be wanted, we want to be something The need to be someone is coming when we're feeling like nothing So breathe in
[chorus]
[verse 2] I find myself always doing a little something extra Tryna make the people that surround me laugh 'Cause if I do, chances are they'll think I'm worth something But the real me is slipping to the me of the past
Wanting affirmation, lacking confidence Compliments were motivation Thank God for honest friends Who will call you on your bluffs, tough love says you're acting different I'm down to change, but on some realness, I lack commitment
Back when I was a kid I was ignorant to the news That real life isn't always pop and sometimes it's the blues Growing up will teach you things they don't teach you in school And you can know a lot of things and can still be a fool
I spent time and spent money, only one of them can be replaced Both can cost you something, both can go to waste It's best when we invest in progression North, not south when suggestin' direction
[chorus]
[bridge]x4 Hear no, see no, speak no evil Different dreams for different people Nothing wrong with the simple life Are you being you or someone else inside?
[chorus]
[outro] “There's a being up there, and that's all this is about.”
