Look
[Verse 1]
Mama said “boy, keep your hands clean”
I was in the mud tryna fix my own machine
Hand-me-down shoes, whole soul in the seams
Turned every missing piece to a part of the dream
I ain’t built for the gossip, I’m built for the grind
Count scars like stories that sharpen my mind
Kept my head low while they begged for shine
Now they call my name, I just hit decline
[Chorus]
I’m just a simple man
With a complicated past and a steady plan
Got dirt on my name, got grace on my hands
Still walkin’ like I meant it, I don’t need a band
I’m just a simple man
Heart full of fight, feet sunk in the sand
If I fall, I rise, that’s the way I stand
Still the same, still the same simple man (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Pop said “son, don’t you chase that thrill”
I was up late nights tryna bend my will
Turn pain into paint, every page I fill
Every doubt in my chest got a grave on the hill
Cold floors, warm faith, that’s all we had
Turned hunger in my gut to a brand-new path
Walk slow through the smoke, let the quick ones crash
If it shines too fast, then it’s bound to pass
[Chorus]
I’m just a simple man
With a complicated past and a steady plan
Got dirt on my name, got grace on my hands
Still walkin’ like I meant it, I don’t need a band
I’m just a simple man
Heart full of fight, feet sunk in the sand
If I fall, I rise, that’s the way I stand
Still the same, still the same simple man (Breeezy)
[Bridge]
If I lose it all, will I lose myself?
If the crowd gets loud, can I hear my health?
I just breathe, two feet on the ground
If the whole world shakes, I won’t break, I won’t bow down
[Chorus]
I’m just a simple man
With a complicated past and a steady plan
Got dirt on my name, got grace on my hands
Still walkin’ like I meant it, I don’t need a band
I’m just a simple man
Heart full of fight, feet sunk in the sand
If I fall, I rise, that’s the way I stand
Still the same, still the same simple man (yeah)
