Can It Be All So Simple Lyrics

Can It Be All So Simple lyrics

[Intro: Raekwon the Chef]

 

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then)

 KnowhatI'msayin, take you on this lyrical high real quick

 Nineteen ninety three exoticness

 KnowhatI'msayin, let's get technical

 Where's your bone at, get up on that shit aight

 Yo!!

 

 [Verse One:]

 

 Started off on the island, AK Shaolin

 Niggaz whylin, gun shots thrown the phone dialin

 Back in the days of eight now, makin a tape now

 Rae gotta get a plate now

 Ignorant and mad young, wanted to be the one

 Till I got (BAM! BAM!) thrown one

 Yeah, my pops was a fiend since sixteen

 Shootin' that (that's that shit!) in his blood stream

 That's the life of a crimey, real live crimey

 If niggas know the half is behind me

 Day one, yo, growin all up in the ghetto

 Now I'm a weed fiend, jettin the Palmetto

 In Medina, yo no doubt the God got crazy clout

 Pushin the big joint from down South

 So if you're filthy stacked up

 Betta watch ya back and duck

 Cause these fiends they got it cracked up

 Now my man from up north, now he got the law

 It's solid as a rock and crazy salt

 No jokes, I'm not playin, get his folks

 Desert Eagle his dick and put 'em in a yolk (AAH!)

 And to know for sure, I got reck and rip shop

 I pointed a gat at his mother's knot

 (Yo, Rae, don't do that shit, man!  Don't do that shit! )

 Fuck that

 

 [Chorus]

 [Raekwon] Dedicated to the winners and the losers 

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Ghost Face Killer] Dedicated to all jeeps and land cruisers

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Raekwon] Dedicated to the Y's, 850-I's

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Ghost Face Killer] Dedicated to niggas who do drive-bys

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Raekwon] Dedicated to the Lexus and the Ax

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Ghost Face Killer] Dedicated to MPV's phat!

 (Can it be that it was all so simple then?)

 [Raekwon] Nigguh, yeah, yeah!

 

 [Verse Two: Ghostface Killer]

 

 Yo!

 Kickin the fly cliches

 Doin duets with Rae and A, happens to make my day

 Though I'm tired of bustin off shots havin to rock knots

 Runnin up in spots and makin shit hot

 I'd rather flip shows instead of those

 Hangin on my living room wall

 My first joint, and it went gold

 I want to lamp, I want to be in the shade

 Plus the spot light

 Gettin my dick rubbed all night

 I wanna have me a phat yacht

 And enough land to go and plant my own sess crops

 But for now, it just a big dream

 Cause I find myself in the place where I'm last seen

 My thoughts must be relaxed

 Be able to maintain

 Cause times is changed and life is strange

 The glorious days is gone, and everybody's doin' bad

 Yo, mad lives is up for grabs

 Brothers, passin away, I gotta make wakes

 Receivin all types of calls from upstate

 Yo, I can't cope with the pressure

 Settlin for lesser

 The god left lessons on my dresser

 So I can bloom and blossom, find a new way

 Continue to make hits with Rae and A

 Sunshine plays a major part in the daytime

 [Peace to mankind Ghostface carry a black nine, nigga

 Word up 

 It's on like that]
