Regular People

(album: Love And Compromise - 2019)

[Mahalia:]
Put your hands up if you love your body
Put your hands up if you love your mommy
Put your hands up if you love your skin
What you wear are the clothes you're in
Do you ever feel there's no way out
Raise 'em if somebody let you down
This one here is for the kind and the peaceful
Put your hands up for the regular people

I don't see nothing wrong with being regular people
Stay right here where we belong with the regular people
We don't have to sing that song just to feel like we're equal
No, we don't have to roll that way, no
Play that game, no, no
We're just being regular people

[Hamzaa:]
Expectations, they can lead to astray from
The way that we are
Need patience, no need for chasing
There's always tomorrow
I call things just how I see 'em
No filter, no alter ego
No big revelations, I'ma take a break, uh (Yeah, yeah)
'Cause where and what and who we are is good enough
And we're just regular people

[Mahalia:]
I don't see nothing wrong with being regular people
Stay right here where we belong with the regular people
We don't have to sing that song just to feel like we're equal
No, we don't have to roll that way, no
Play that game, no
We're just being regular, regular people

[Lucky Daye:]
Laid back, chilling with the crew (Yeah)
None of us got nothing left to prove
I'm working on me, true
I can't play by the rules
I know you been looking for something valuable
Baby, I value us, ayy
I wish that you could see it
Everything you're worth, can't put a price on us, yes
Never mind what they say, do
Can't live my life like they say, so
See, some let us switch sides, but inside they be dying
I'm looking for happy, you tryna succeed
You think I'm naive, you tryna deceive
If I don't, who gon' love me?
We ain't gotta do it for nobody

[Mahalia & (Lucky Daye):]
Put your hands up if you still believe
Put your hands up if you're still with me
This one here is for the odd and the equal (Odd)
So put your hands up for the regular people (Oh, regular people)

I don't see nothing wrong with being regular people (Regular people)
Stay right here where we belong with the regular people (Regular people)
We don't have to sing that song just to feel like we're equal (Oh, feel like)
No, we don't have to roll that way, no
Play that game, no
We're just being regular people
