Simple Pleasures by L.I.F.E. Long Lyrics
L.I.F.E. Long ft. Tia Thomas and Apani - “Simple Pleasures”
[Emcee(s): L.I.F.E. Long and Apani]
[Producer(s): Ste-Lo]
[Hook/Vocals: Tia Thomas]
[Hook: Tia Thomas]
Can’t be mad when the mind is gone
Keep on hustling, push my song
Count me down but don’t count me gone
Simple pleasures hold me strong
How what I needed
All along, and it never
Steered me wrong. Simple
Pleasures, simple pleasures
[Verse 1: L.I.F.E. Long]
If I walked down the road of struggles, many paths
Leading towards this never-ending hustle. Choice is
To chose whether you succeed or lose. This is
Your [?]. No time to snooze. Appreciation to
The smallest things that still count. Money can’t
Buy happiness, no matter what amount. Realism
Over materialism, dealing with a corrupt system
Morals, values coincide to keep it with the
Times, staying dry through the rain, maintaining
My vibe. I peep many signs, so I just wise
-ly, live free, be me. No disguise
On identity, feeling good even when the wallet’s
Empty. My shine around the corner, it soon come
Stay patient while watching the changing of seasons
No reason to get vexed when pressure’s rising
Just hold your head up, express life, and keep it shining
[Hook: Tia Thomas]
Can’t be mad when the mind is gone
Keep on hustling, push my song
Count me down but don’t count me gone
Simple pleasures hold me strong
How what I needed
All along, and it never
Steered me wrong. Simple
Pleasures
[Verse 2: Apani]
A. B. M.-
-C. take it mellow and easy. Simple pleasures
Squeeze me like my lover’s fingertips and my hair on
Starlit nights. I’m so thankful. Every day
I wake up, drink life by the cupful. To count my bless-
-ings is wonderful. Moms dukes made me humble
Waste not, want. Now flip a dollar or a bundle
Can’t deny it. So simple (So simple). A glimpse of a child’s
Smile made it clear to me. Just to see ya
[?] and Aaliyah compares to a breath of fresh
Air [?] at the beach, peaches and
Cream with no pits. It’s like hot cornbread, cat-
-fish and extra butter on my grits. Tell me, what could
Be better than this? No stress, no stems, no
Seeds, no father, fan mail, fast checks, fat
Chains, no drama with my father, no signs
Of foul weather. What I need most is simple pleasure, yeah
[Hook: Tia Thomas]
Simple pleasures
Keep my mind as ease
Simple
Actually make me want to breathe
Simple
Happy is all ever want to
Be. Mmm
Keep my sanity
[Verse 3: L.I.F.E. Long]
Take
A minute to enjoy the fresh air, inhale
Exhale, just breathe, be healthy, take care
Accept mind, body, soul, young and old
“Every day’s a blessing. Count them,” I was told
My first kiss. Being in love pure bliss
Getting a long-distance call from someone missed
Or even bumping into members of old crew, giving
Thanks for simple pleasures. All praises due
[Hook: Tia Thomas]
Can’t be mad when the mind is gone
Keep on hustling, push my song
Count me down but don’t count me gone
Simple pleasures hold me strong
How what I needed
All along, and it never
Steered me wrong. Simple
Pleasures, simple pleasures
