[verse 1]
See I ain't used to livin' life excessively
Magnum, pair of dice, and chapsticks my accessories
Now that's a swell life if you askin' me
I never needed lots of ice like Master P
To feel like a king, that's what my souls for
But you sold yours, that's why you so sore
That's why you need all them diamonds and gold for
Yeah I know yo neck it feels just like the cold war
But if I bought a chain would that make me a hypocrite?
If next year I woke up and I was on some different sh**
They say the blacks have bad taste, guess that makes us licorice
And how do we retaliate, buy all the expensive sh**
sh**, yo outfit so ridiculous, you up on all the trends
Make sure you fittin' in
And I ain't even mad, yo hat so wicked kid
See I would buy one too if only I could fit the sh**
[hook]
I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man that bullsh** don't mean sh** to me see
I don't need much
Man I'm easy to please let me show you what it means to be free see
I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man I make it look easy to be me see
I don't need much
[verse 2]
See I wear a lot of beanies cause my head so big
Not just because it fits in well with my taste
Ha! I wish that I could wear some fitted caps again
But it's hard to find any bigger than size 8
Ah, I guess I ain't too fashion forward
I only wear what's comfortable that's if I can afford it
Goin' broke for sneakers, I don't see what the allure is
I guess I like some nikes and a, few of the Jordans but uuuuh
I just don't see what the big deals about
Why n***as camp out when the latest color schemes come out
I really ain't much of an athlete, but if success is a sport, then you can say
All Day I Dream About....
But if that's what your scenes about
I ain't knockin' I'm just focusin' on me for now
Go head and get it how you live it
You should rock that shoe if you can fit it
Fa fit it, fa fit it
[hook]
I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man that bullsh** don't mean sh** to me see
I don't need much
Man I'm easy to please let me show you what it means to be free see
I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man I make it look easy to be me see
I don't need much
[verse 3]
32 x 32, that's my levi 501's and make sure they're blue (or black)
I got this yellow watch from Target, it's a Mossimo
The gray ones Casio, and the purple's Krew
I never wore Gucci or Fendi
When n***as try to say I'm broke it really don't offend me
Cause I don't have nobody else that's puttin' money in me
You ain't buy that sh** yourself, but it's ok keep on pretending
Cause really I ain't even mad
Someone investin' in me's something that I wish I had
I remember when we used to ask our Mom and Dad
To buy us sh** with money that they didn't really have
Just to say we had it, then I woke up one day like that sh** doesn't even matter
I stopped askin' for the Polo, and the latest fashion
Cause I just like to keep it simple that's what I imagine, imagine, imagine

I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man that bullsh** don't mean sh** to me see
I don't need much
Man I'm easy to please let me show you what it means to be free see
I don't need much
Except jeans and a tee man I make it look easy to be me see
I don't need much
