Simplicity ft Oa$e

Simplicity ft Oa$e

Oa$e (intro):

Sometimes I wonder what's right and wrong,

The right way to start a song (Süp127: The right way to start a song?)

What’s with cops harassing oh so long,

Cause we bumpin’ songs? (Süp127: Cause we bumpin’ songs.)


Süp127 (first verse):

Sometimes shit works out, sometimes it doesn't

It worked so perfectly, now everything seems busted

There’s ups and downs, there's always a tradeoff

You get what you put in, your repaid the same cost

It always works out, one way or another

You can't fight fate, any day you could go under

But then again, you never know

How deep you can go, before you hit the undertow

So, control your flow, learn the value of hard work

Or stay living poor because he never undertook

Any challenges, didn't put in the effort

In that continuous cycle of feeling fooled and rejected

You took the backseat, so you could fake full commitment

Never given second thought, to the life you was livin’

But it's all good, ‘cause in the end

You earned what you spent

You should hear me again to see what I meant

Cause you and I both know you're not used to lyrics

Usually the same old BS, you learn not to hear it

But if you ever wake up, just remember

The real content is here, Süp ain't no pretender

And to the real heads, you know who you are

Stay committed, cause Süp could never stray too far

So trust that I will stay real

Delivering simplicity, in a form you can feel, yeah


Chorus (alternating):

I question the way we live

Because we both know it isn’t right

We take and never give

So lowly is our height

There must be a better way

I try so hard to see

Living confused every day

It must be simplicity


Oa$e (first verse):

Are people too good for slaps or daps?

They need to be right and be, “What’s the haps?”

Put on your caps for a cold, old world

Because I’ma tell you how it all unfurls

I begin with a grin, come out to win

No regrets, no shame, no sin, just kin

Like sisters, brothers

Killing their own mother

People build walls and they oh so stubborn

Why do people, want to kill hope

When we need to, kill all dope

And the ropes that hold you down

You joke like a clown and that makes me frown

Come together, once for some changes

On cops that be targeting us, like shooting ranges

It's so good, to see all y’all faces

I'm ready for anything, I tied my laces


Repeat Chorus (reverse alternating)


Süp127:

Sometimes I wonder what's wrong and what's right

Is it all opinion, or some special insight?

If murder is so bad, and healing is good

When you go to a doctor, what does it cost an arm and a foot?

Because if money is the root of all evil

Then why is money the goal for so many people?

Or even more so, why is money even legal?

They collected in baskets, at your local church steeple

So you got your money, so money is good

This is money we've stole from people with no food

It just doesn't make sense, how does it figure

Unknowingly, we do wrong to make our pockets bigger

Is it survival of the fittest, but are we really fitter?

Because we were born privileged, or born a sinner

Or are we innocent, because we know not of our crime?

Did I just make you guilty, exposing you to my rhyme?

And if we are innocent, then who takes the blame?

The few in power, but how will it even out the same?

Because if you really think about it, those few

Only have the power because they’re backed by me and you

Do we really mean to back them, or anyone for that matter

Knowing what they’ll do to make our pockets fatter?

Knowing I can't be excluded only makes me sadder

And knowing you could care less, makes me even madder

The latter is worse because what does that make me?

An uncivilized savage, pissed off and angry

Is it something wrong with me

Or something wrong with those who disagree?

But hey, what does wrong mean anyway?

Incorrect according to you but who are you to say?

Who gave you the right, and who taught me to accept it?

Who locks me up if I choose to reject it?

And who taught them to lock me up?

Am I the only one asking, or just to speak up?

Does anyone have the answer, does anyone even care?

Ignorance is the greatest cancer, so please won’t you share?

Are these questions rhetorical, do I already know?

Or do I want you to explore, and question life on a whole?


Repeat Chorus


Oa$e (second verse):

I’m unconcerned with all your dollar profits

I’m a landscaper, who deals with real topics

What's the earth gonna be in ten years or more?

Blown to shreds because of your little war

Me, oh no siree

I’m speakin’ up to make y’all see, that if we

Come together to do what's right in the mind

And say, “Fuck all propaganda with a stupid design”

Come twice, for some changes

On politicians who can't come within effective range of us

It's so good to see all y’all faces

You heard it before, I’ve tied my laces


Repeat Chorus
