The song "Simple Song" by Konshens addresses the issue of dishonesty and communication break down in a relationship. The song starts with Konshens questioning his girlfriend's credibility through the lyrics "Ah simple argument, ah lie?" He accuses her of trying to trick him and manipulate him in their conversations, and he pleads with her not to deceive him. Throughout the song, Konshens recounts instances where the girl has failed to keep her promises, especially in times when he needs her most. Despite their fun and enjoyable conversations, Konshens expresses his frustration and disappointment that she fails to come through in important situations, leaving him frustrated and feeling like he is wasting his time. He ends the song by reiterating that he cannot be deceived by her, and she cannot style herself as a stylist.
The song is a commentary on the importance of honesty and open communication in relationships. Konshens speaks to the value of staying true to one's word and following through on promises to build trust in a relationship. He also emphasizes the need to be direct and transparent in communication, rather than making excuses or using tricks to evade difficult conversations. Overall, "Simple Song" encourages listeners to prioritize honesty and clear communication as the foundation of any successful relationship.
