[Intro: Justin Vernon]
~#**************#~
And I know where Im going to
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Nas]
~#**************#~
Im lookin in Longevitys eyes
~#**************#~
I play with Infinitys mind, Forevers my guy
~#**************#~
My pedigree, above your ass, youll never see I
~#**************#~
I love the past, but see where Im goin, I get to fly
~#**************#~
Never sold a record for the beat, its my verses they purchase
~#**************#~
Without production Im worthless
~#**************#~
But Im more than the surface
~#**************#~
Want me to sound like every song on the Top 40
~#**************#~
Im not for you, you not for me, you bore me
~#**************#~
I drop lines prestigious schools read to their students
~#**************#~
Look at my album plaques, somebody agrees with the music
~#**************#~
Was lovin women youll never see
~#**************#~
All you knows my kids mothers, some celebrities
~#**************#~
Damn, look at the jealousy!
~#**************#~
Lucky me, I meet some beauties
~#**************#~
Make you wanna shoot me
~#**************#~
Hate to brag, my worst batch kills off your best cutie
~#**************#~
Facts is deep, we break up, they hook up with athletes
~#**************#~
Get married cause we wasnt that match, my G
~#**************#~
Dont attach me to the games, Im lucky, Im blessed
~#**************#~
One of my exes could be your next, dog—trust me, dont test
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Nas]
~#**************#~
Its the simple things in life, simple things in life
~#**************#~
Simple things in life, simple things in life
~#**************#~
Its the simple things in life, simple things in life
~#**************#~
Simple things in life, simple things in life
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Nas]
~#**************#~
Rollin dice, throw no aces
~#**************#~
With my gangsters, we discussin buyin acres
~#**************#~
Other safe bets, nothin regular or basic
~#**************#~
Ridin back to back, me and Jungle in some spaceships
~#**************#~
Where the squad at?
~#**************#~
You can see us on the ave, chop it up as always
~#**************#~
Stand up Queensbridge, now the world know us
~#**************#~
Everybody sayin my humilitys infectious
~#**************#~
I just want my kids to have the same peace Im blessed with
