This song captures the essence of staying grounded amidst the chaos of fame and fortune.
Verse 1:
Woke up in a mansion, yeah, the gold on my wrist,
Used to chase the visions of a life fueled by bliss.
Money in my pockets, but I'm feeling so low,
Running after girls, lost the real flow.
Chorus:
Now I'm just sipping on a cold beer,
Fried chicken on the grill, nothing else to fear.
Got my friends around, yeah, this is the vibe,
Simple pleasures in life, you know we thrive.
Verse 2:
Flashy cars and parties didn't fill the void,
Found out in the quiet, true joys can be enjoyed.
Sitting on the porch with the sun in the sky,
Laughing with my boys, watching the world go by.
Chorus:
Now I'm just sipping on a cold beer,
Fried chicken on the grill, nothing else to fear.
Got my friends around, yeah, this is the vibe,
Simple pleasures in life, you know we thrive.
Bridge:
Forget the highs and lows of the flashy shows,
I found a home in laughter, where the love grows.
Life's sweet like honey, so I'm keepin' it real,
With a plate full of love, that's the ultimate meal.
Chorus:
Now I'm just sipping on a cold beer,
Fried chicken on the grill, nothing else to fear.
Got my friends around, yeah, this is the vibe,
Simple pleasures in life, you know we thrive.
Outro:
So I raise my glass to the nights under stars,
To the simple little things, that ain't so far.
Money and the girls, they fade into time,
But a beer and some chicken, now that’s sublime.
