I was a lonely man
you can find me
downtown
Playing blues songs
for anybody that
comes round
Now they hear me sing
they want to come
round, round
I've been waiting
long for the sun
to shine down
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
Alright
mmmm
Imagine that
Never gave a s**t
now I’m giving back
Used to run around
the flats saying “brap”
now I got the whole
festival saying that
Thinking ’bout the youths
that have tags
now look at me
paying VAT
I remember coming home
to my bags
the door wasn’t
on the latch
But mum I’ll always
love you for that
only real women
make a man
That’s why I wanna
give you more
than a hand
That’s why I wanna give
you more than my bank
I just wanna see you fly
wanna bring back my nan
Wanna put you in the sky
give you land
when you land
Still ain’t met
your new man
He better do you right
‘fore I turn this to a rap
‘cause I’m living on kick
I was a lonely man you
can find me downtown
Playing blues songs
for anybody that
comes round
Now they hear me sing
they want to come
round, round
I've been waiting
long for the sun
to shine down
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
mmmm
If you lived
where I lived
You’ll understand
why I do it big
late night daydreaming
’bout my kids
Till the day I die
they’re the reason
that I live
I just had to do it right
done the legit thing
I ain’t just a role model
in the business
tell my baby brother
don’t cry for me
I’ll just have to
love you from a distance
and I’m still the man
just a little more clearer
I traded grams switched
them for letters just like
Instagram makes things
look better when I hit
the ground I’ll live forever
Live forever
I’m alright with that
Rolex on my wrist
good times are back
Can’t get evicted
I can buy my flat
life’s so relaxed
I was a lonely man you
can find me downtown
Playing blues songs
for anybody that
comes round
Now they hear me sing
they want to come
round, round
I've been waiting
long for the sun
to shine down
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
I’m doing ok
mmmm
I’m doing ok
