Life away from the City....

I have been reminded of what it is like to experience country life
Raw, and uncut, real true living minus the over rated hype.
To be able to just sit outside with a nice visual of the space that you got
No one complaining all damn day about it being too hot
Watching the animals run around, with not too many worries
Listening to the old folk tell about 307 different stories (most of them are the same stories he/ she told the day before)
Building a fire in the front yard, just to keep the bugs from ruining the party
If you have some food, at least 4 people, some music, and alcohol, then you have a successful party
Women sitting outside,(IN THE FRONT YARD) WITHOUT the worries of putting their hair on or in
Everyone damn near knows everyone, even if not, we are waving at the cars driving in
Not really giving a damn about who has more than the other
What I got, you got, we are all just like sisters and brothers..
Taking a hoe bath is like a daily thing, especially if you know you are not done with the day
You may either have to go back out to do more work, or maybe just go back out to play
NOW, most just may be a little behind on life, and some even out of touch with reality
Well for the city folk, that is just a formality.
Respect is a given, or there is an object to the head, coming flying through the air.
I dare a child to talk back to a grown-up,  oooohhhhh what a cross he/she will bare
Country living, some can do it, some will not, as for me, there is nothing more pure
Will I move back to the country, hands down, I would for sure….

I Would Have Been Just Fine

why did you come that day, i think i still would have been OK
minding my own business, chilling and drinking, no mood to play
was not interested in anyone in the place, didn't give a phuck about getting laid
just wanted to listen to the music that was playing, otherwise at home i would have stayed
ssssshhhhiiiiitttttt, i would have been alright just looking
i would have been just fine
i go to certain spots just for the music, but to get hitched and laid, i never waste my time
but hey, this is a day and the life of a nigga that gets exactly what he ask for
i remember praying for something specific, and my father in heaven, he gives me this and  more
standing up, rocking a bit to the groove that was surrounding the place
trying my damndest not to pay attention to the distraction that was in my face
yea i would have been OK just looking
i would have been just fine
but i did not take into account an attraction that was predestined, an attraction that was right on time.
i would have been OK, just looking... i would have been just fine....
before i was given a name or relation i walked in with you in my eye
