Wretch 32 - Doing OK lyrics

[Jacob Banks]

I was a lonely man, you can find me downtown

Playing blues songs for anybody that comes round

Now they hear me sing, they want to come round round

I been waiting long for the sun to shine down

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

Mmmhmm

[Wretch 32]

Imagine that

Never gave a sh*t, now I’m giving back

Used to run around the flats saying “brap”

Now I got the whole festival saying that

Thinking ’bout the youths that have tags

Now look at me paying VAT

I remember coming home to my bags

The door wasn’t on the latch

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 nan

Wanna put you in the sky, give you land when you land

Still ain’t met your new man

He better do you right ‘fore I turn this to a wrap

‘Cause I’m living on kick

[Jacob Banks]

I was a lonely man, you can find me downtown

Playing blues songs for anybody that comes round

Now they hear me sing, they want to come round round

I been waiting long for the sun to shine down

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

Mmmhmm

[Wretch 32]

If you live where I live

You’ll understand why I do it big

Late night daydreaming ’bout 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 clearer

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

[Jacob Banks]

I was a lonely man, you can find me downtown

Playing blues songs for anybody that comes round

Now they hear me sing, they want to come round round

I been waiting long for the sun to shine down

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

I’m doing ok

Mmmhmm
