It features rapping from Ghostface Killah and Raekwon. Its lyrics deal with a glorified mafioso lifestyle. A remix can be found on Raekwon's popular debut album Only Built 4 Cuban Linx.... It features a music video directed b Hype Williams, with images similar to the song's content and a cameo by MC Eiht. Although it as not as popular as its predecessor "C.R.E.A.M. (Cash Rules Everything Around Me)", "Can It Be All So Simple" has been deemed a classic by most Wu-Tang fans. In this single, Raekwon and Ghostface discuss the hardships of growing up in New York City during the 80's, and how they want to live a lavish and famous lifestyle to escape the hardships of life.
