Just Be

He was sitting on his front porch Singin' about a dirt road Sippin' his cherry wine He said "Tay, this never gets old" And I'm gonna tell you why It's called a simple life So unwind your mind and give it a try Back in Southern California Running in a rat race I can't get no real love Oh, I need a slower pace So I ain't going back there Oh, that's a bed I made So I'll sip on some of what he's got And call it a day Sometimes, we get so caught up In what it takes to be free Mining for the few things that we can't Buy with money I'm picking up your message What your laying down for me The key to being happy is to just be The key to being happy is to just be Lately, we forget that we've got all the control If we can still teach our minds how to free our soul When every day is a choice And I know it ain't an easy one But we can't be stronger together if we all run Sometimes, we get so caught up In what it takes to be free Mining for the few things that we can't Buy with money And I'm picking up your message What you're laying down for me The key to being happy is to just be The key to being happy is to just be Lately, we forget we got all the control If we can still teach our minds how to feed our soul When every day is a choice And I know it ain't an easy one But we can't be stronger together if we all run 'Cause sometimes, we get so caught up In what it takes to be free Mining for the few things that we can't Buy with money And I'm picking up your message What you're laying down for me The key to being happy is to just be The key to being happy is to just be, yeah The key to being happy is to just be
