Wretch 32 - Doing OK lyrics
rate me(feat. Jacob Banks)
Hook:
I was a lonely man you can find me downtown, hey oh
Playing blues songs for anybody that comes round, hey oh
Now they hear me sing, they want to come round round, hey oh
I been waiting long for the sun to shine down, hey oh!
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
Mmmhmm, huh!
Imagine that! never gave a shit, now I’m giving back
Used to run around the flats saying, “brap”
Now I got the whole festival saying that.
Thinking about the youths that have tags
Now look at me paying VAT!
I remember coming home to my bags,
The door wasn’t on the ...
But mum, I’ll always love you for that.
Only real women make a man
That’s why I wanna give you more than a hand
That’s why I wanna give you more than my bank.
I just wanna see you fly, wanna bring back my ...
Wanna put you in the sky, give you land when you land!
but still you ain’t met your new man
He better do you right for I turn this to a wrap
Cause I’m living on kick
Hook:
I was a lonely man you can find me downtown, hey oh
Playing blues songs for anybody that comes round, hey oh
Now they hear me sing, they want to come round round, hey oh
I been waiting long for the sun to shine down, hey oh!
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
Mmmhmm, huh!
If you live where I live, you’ll understand why I do it big
Late night daydreaming about my kids
Til the day I die, they’re the reason that I live
I just had to do it right, done the legit thing
I ain’t just a role model in the business!
Tell my baby mother, „don’t cry for me!”
I’ll just have to love you from a distance!
And I’m still the man, just a little more clever
I traded grams, switched them for letters
Just like Instagram makes things look better
When I hit the ground, I’ll live forever!
Live forever, I’m alright with that
Rolex on my wrist, good times are back
Can’t get evicted, I can buy my flat
Life’s so relaxed!

I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
I’m doing OK, hey oh, hey, hey oh, oh
Mmmhmm, huh!
