This is a leak from the forthcoming Funky DL samples Stevie Wonder EP entitled Sometimes I Have To Wonder. This track is entitled Just Dont Give a Care and samples Stevie Wonders classic Hes Misstra Know-It-All from his 1973 Innervisions album.
Dont Give a Care
Verse One
I am sick of these dudes trying to tell me what to do
Trying to tell me like its new trying tell me like its true
Trying to sell me their rules like its painted in jewels
But I aint following fools only following my gut feeling
Guess I gotta leave em
So I can say theres no doubt that Im not kneeling
I never been the type to beg dont find it too appealing
But thats not a reason to try to pull me in your circle of these top demons
They wanna see me on my last legs not even
So Im staying on the top like Im not leaving
The only way Im coming down is if Im not breathing
But if Im not weeping and certainly not bleeding
Then I am far from your average Joe, John Steven
This game season
So when Im looking up for someone who I can believe in
Im quite sure it aint gone be nobody junk feeding
They always say true colours always be revealing
A vivid rainbow and damn I can really see em
Still Im succeeding
So the peeps that dont care about me
Dont think Im losing sleep cos youre wrong naa mean?
I just gotta be cautious of these good will thieves
And I just gotta be patient till these hoods will leave
Sing the hook now Stevie
Chorus
[Stevie]
Take my word, please beware of a man that just dont give a care no
[DL]
You dont care about me, well I dont care about you
You dont care about us, we feel the same way too
This is what you need to do
[Stevie]
Take my word,
[DL]
Say what?
[Stevie]
Please beware
[DL]
True indeed
[Stevie]
Of a man that just dont give a care no
[DL]
You dont care about me, well I dont care about you
You dont care about us, we feel the same way too
This is what you need to do
Verse Two
Yall dont care about me? Well I dont care about you
You will hear about me but I wont hear about you
Round one is always hard but I dont fear a round two
I aint gonna be laying on the canvas seeing blue
With the crowd screaming boooooo!
With people in a queue wanting refunds too
Thats why I never really liked what these ones do
They rather bring grief over peace unto
And rarely walk alone, theres at least one or two trying to feast off of you!
I am speaking from the heart, Im not speaking from my ego
I dont wanna be the agent in the Matrix hating people
I know all men are equal but some men are blind
So with some men youll find that some are so unkind
And some are so one minded.
Take my word and please beware
I wanna pick you up from lifes good so please be there
So when you see me coming through you know at least he cares
So never think for any moment that its easy here
But at least he dares
So the peeps that dont care about me
Dont think Im losing sleep cos youre wrong naa mean?
I just gotta be cautious of these good will thieves
And I just gotta be patient till these hoods will leave
Sing the hook now Stevie
