Simple Love Story Feat. Keran Sabir

Let me tell you about this guy named Jim
 A gem when it came to running ball in the gym
 A four year scholarship to U.M.
 A Terp doing work, nobody could see him
 Sophomore year, things got complex for Jim
 Conference tournament- he broke his wrist on the rim
 Then it came out- an agent had bought him a B.M.
 Now Jim's N.B.A. prospects look slim
 He's back in the hood running with his man Tim
 They're drinking and they're smoking blunts down to the stem
 If Jim's not careful, he will be a victim
 Another young black male caught in the system
 But then, one day, while working out at the gym
 He couldn't believe what was standing in front of him
 Chocolate honey brown, pretty smile, plus trim
 "Excuse me, what's your name?" "Hi, my name is Kim"
 It's just a simple love story y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Don't let the loneliness take you away
 Don't let it take you away
 It's just a simple love story, y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Just let the melody take you away
 As we do it like...
 Immediate connection between Jim and Kim
 Different, yet the same, kind of like a synonym
 They started hanging out P.M. to A.M.
 The cup of their love was filled up to the brim
 In fact, things were going so well between them
 In less than a year, Kim had moved in with Jim
 But not long after that, their light grew dim
 Because Jim and Kim had a big problem
 See, Kim felt like Jim was only about Jim
 And Jim felt like Kim wanted to change him
 Even small things became arguments for them
 Like Jim liked whole milk, Kim liked skim
 The future for Jim and Kim was looking grim
 Their love song was turning into a requiem
 But then, one day everything changed for Kim
 She heard the gospel and got introduced to Him
 It's just a simple love story y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Don't let the decadence take you away
 Don't let it take you away
 It's just a simple love story, y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Just let the harmony take you away
 As we do it like...
 Kim had an epiphany when she met Him (Jesus)
 The One who literally went out on a limb
 to bring sinful men back to Him
 New life she received when she believed He did this for Kim
 New found joy, she tried to share it with Jim
 He wasn't feeling it- He thought it was just a whim
 He couldn't front though, something was different about Kim
 Because every morning, she was up at 5 A.M.
 Faithfully on her face praising Him
 Thanking Him for His grace, even praying for Jim
 Answer to prayer- Jim gave His life to Him
 Advance three months later, Jim's wife was Kim
 A love triangle: on the bottom right is Jim
 On the bottom left is Kim, at the pinnacle is Him
 So the closer Jim gets to Him and Kim gets to Him
 The closer Jim gets to Kim and that's the end
 Peace...
 It's just a simple love story y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Don't let the bitterness take you away
 Don't let it take you away
 It's just a simple love story, y'all
 So would you listen up for me, y'all?
 And while today is today
 Just let the symphony take you away
 As we do it like...
