CHORUS
SIMPLY COMPLICATED, WHO TOLD YOU LIFE WAS EASY? EASY? EASY?
GET IT STRAIGHT, YO IT'S HARD TO MAINTAIN
IT LOOK SO SIMPLE BUT IT'S COMPLICATED, COMPLICATED
BUT I'M HOLDING IT DOWN
YOU THINK IT'S SIMPLE BUT IT'S NOT, TAKE A RHYME AND A BEAT
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER NOW SEE WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT
IT'S REALLY COMPLICATED
IF YOU DON'T WALK MY SHOES DON'T TELL ME HOW IT IS.
VERSE ONE
I'm like two cats in a brawl
Two cats fighting at the top of a building and two cats fall
But one cat stands tall
Looking for another two cats then three cats head for the mall
Where two cats are looking for beef
Them two cats get knocked down and spit out two teeth
Now two cops are coming and two cats are running
But one cat stays right there he aint fronting
Put your two arms up because you went too far
Now there's six police officers in two police cars
Confiscated my cash and two tapes of Nas
Handcuffs were real tight so they left two scars
In a cell for two hours with two sergeants
Left on two grand bail up on two charges
That's how hectic I am, grown man more plans,
Than a beach in Israel got grains of sand
Don't get it mixed or twisted, I came to grab them
Name an artist worldwide who produced five albums
And rhymed five albums solo; yo I'm rated,
My life is simply too complicated
CHORUS
VERSE TWO
I'm like two Mike Tyson's fighting each other
I'm like a two-headed shark biting each other's
Nose of the spite each face, I'm like a two man team
If one hand gets cut off there's still three
Now other MC's are like a one-man tug of war
They'll soon fall off and deck to the floor
Because they're too bait and too late
So they sweat like a two million cheque with a two-year wait
I'm too vex took two out which two's next
Let me take two hammers and wreck two decks
I'll battle any fella acappella,
Standing in two inches of rain under two umbrella's
I'm too hot, too cold and too cool
And too thick but unlike two fools
Standing at the bus stop waiting for a subway train
To be too clever you don't need two brains
Just think two times before you make your next step
Because it's rare you get two chances to build your rep
Rewind this and play this two times I stated
My life is simply too complicated
CHORUS
OUTRO
SIMPLY TOO COMPLICATED (MANY TIMES IN A SCRATCH EFFECT)
SIMPLY COMPLICATED, WHO TOLD YOU LIFE WAS EASY? EASY? EASY?
GET IT STRAIGHT, YO IT'S HARD TO MAINTAIN
IT LOOK SO SIMPLE BUT IT'S COMPLICATED, COMPLICATED
BUT I'M HOLDING IT DOWN
YOU THINK IT'S SIMPLE BUT IT'S NOT, TAKE A RHYME AND A BEAT
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER NOW SEE WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT
IT'S REALLY COMPLICATED
IF YOU DON'T WALK MY SHOES DON'T TELL ME HOW IT IS.
