Simple Lyrics by Karl Nova

For Such a Time as This

2017

Spread love
Speak life
Shine light
Simple

If you're too preachy you can't reach me
Be an example to teach me
Practice what you preach
Anyone can chat that's easy
You see we're all journeys
Students of life we're learning
For answers we are yearning
My curiosity's burning
I've always been inquisitive
Surely that ain't negative
When things get so repetitive
I must break the cycle to live
Let's do something different
As this life we're living it
Everything I'm giving it
This zest for life I live with it
Look yeah I'm just doing me
Tough times will not ruin me
That's real you know, true indeed
In your own lane, move with speed
Look yeah I'm just moving free
I aim to be to true to me
You don't have to move with me
I'm on my path no removing me
Live and let live
That's my attitude and policy
We can have a chat
If you wanna do that honestly
Meaningful conversations
Are great, you follow me?
But I refuse to let the hate
Pushed by trolls to swallow me

Spread love
Speak life
Shine light
Simple

Simple (x4)

Spread love
Speak life
Shine light
Simple

I'm not a hip hop hippie
Life in the city is gritty
In the big smoke it ain't pretty
Many are weary and teary
Grinding through the week
Living for the weekend
Many feel they're sinking
Drowning in the deep end
For relief they're seeking
For some hope they're reaching
Life can be so cold
And there's no central heating
But there's no defeating
One who's faith won't weaken
On this track I' leaking
Information as I'm speaking
Look yeah I'm just doing me
Tough times will not ruin me
That's real you know, true indeed
In your own lane, move with speed
Look yeah I'm just moving free
I aim to be to true to me
You don't have to move with me
I'm on my path no removing me
It's the simple things
That are so important
Those little things
Can be so enormous
I just wanna spread love
Across all borders
Speak life and shine light
Amidst the disorder

Spread love
Speak life
Shine light
Simple

Simple (x4)
