Lyrics Konshens – Simple Blessings
Text:
Chimney, hey, hey
New government
Give thanks
Sing it
Ever day-ay-ay
(Realest thing me read a while, bredda)
We give thanks
(For real)
You spend all that money on your watch
How much time, you spend with your son (yeah)
So much money in the club
How much you spend with the ones you love
The simple things a your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings, your blessing
Simple things a your blessing
Hey, you no notice your blessings
You’re picky with the shoes ‘pon your feet
Nah pick and choose the friends weh you keep (you know dem)
You nah watch weh you eat
When last you get a good sleep?
The simple things a your blessings (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Simple things a your blessing, your blessing
Simple things a your blessing
You better notice your blessing (yeah, yeah)
Sing it
Simplicity we use fi survive
Many find it difficult becah dem ignorant
One alone me get, you nah go live another lie
Telling dem again, but a no inna that a vice
Bun out some a the sadness and invest inna loving
Time you tek a stress, lifetime passing
Tell dem say you love dem ‘fore you see dem inna coffin
Mek me tell you this, me nigga
Good days, bad days, you no see
We would a trade house and car and cheddar
Just fi get one more minute with me bredda
So you better, spend time together
Cherish every second a the day weh you deh yah
Gotta tell you
I had a close one yesterday
Jah put an angel over me
The simple things a your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings, your blessings
Simple things a your blessing
Hey, you no notice your blessings
The simple things a your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessing, your blessing
Simple things dem a your blessing
You better notice your blessing
We’ve got life, so let’s live
You mek the time fi chase the paper
When last you say a prayer?
We’ve got life, so let’s live
And while your worshipping your treasure
‘Member nothing lasts forever
The simple things a your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings, your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings
You better notice your blessings
The simple things dem a your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings, your blessings
Simple things dem a your blessings
You better notice your blessings
Simple things, oh the simple things
Health and strength, oh the simple things
Mek me tell you ’bout the simple things
Family and friends a no simple things, hah
(You better notice your blessing)
