[Verse 1]
I don't stand in line, I don't pay for clubs, fuck that, yeah
But I'll wait for you
I don't like to drink, I don't like to think, fuck that, oh-ooo-oh
But I ponder you, ohh
I'm bending it over
You're my four leaf clover
I'm so in love, so in love
There's no one above up above
Forever's a long time, yes

[Chorus]
My blue jeans
Will last me all
My life, ohh yes
So should we
I'm spending all, yeah
This time, ooh

[Verse 2]
Met you at the shop, sun was getting hot, I'm lonely, yeah
(Lonely, yeah)
I'm in the city on my own (City on my own)
Never would've thought you'd be the one, I got a homie
(Ohh)
But that's the way it goes (That's the way it goes)
I'm reaching Nirvana (I'm reaching Nirvana)
Goodbye sweet Rwanda (Goodbye sweet Rwanda)
High school was never for me (High school was never for me)
Yeah, I say let it be, let it be
Forever's a long time, yeah

[Chorus]
My blue jeans
Will last me all
My life, ohh yes
So should we
I'm spending all
This time

[Outro]
You don't even know me
You don't even know me, yes
I'm hanging from the tree
I'm hanging from the tree
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah

The world has come to understand R&B/Soul music as a multi-faceted genre that transcends soundwaves into the inner core of our existence — a genre that makes listeners feel, rather than just hear. For Toronto native, Ashton Simmonds, who performs under the stage name, Daniel Caesar (born April 5, 1995), the R&B/Soul genre serves as a skeleton to which he builds up with jarring gospel undertones, heart-tugging guitar chords, and soothing harmonious vocals.

His sophomore effort, Praise Break, successfully captured the attention of many major publications and outlets and was ranked 19th in the 20 Best R&B Albums of 2014 by Rolling Stone Magazine. Caesar’s follow-up project, Pilgrim’s Paradise, was met with even greater praise, subsequently capturing the attention of both the Canadian and international music markets.

On August 25, 2017, Daniel released his debut album, Freudian, which followed the release of “We Find Love” and “Blessed,” and contains hit songs, “Best Part” and “Get You.” In 2018, Freudian was nominated for Best R&B Album at the Grammys.
