Gracious

Uno dos
Tres quatro

I bet it's easier to look the other way
So glad to go on living, day to day
And today
If maybe we forget about the helpless hand
So sad because he's wishing his life away

I couldn't count all the blessings I had
My mama happy, my son good
What else could I ask?
I'm thankful for hard times and
The lessons they pass
And I'm grateful for having answers
To the questions I asked
I'm grateful for sight
I'm grateful to hear
When I was younger I was
Everything I hated I swear
I thought the world was out to get
Me in a state of despair
Just an egotistical asshole
My faith was impaired
I always was complainin' and I
Always was the victim
It never was my fault and
It always was the system
You think the world owe you something
You wrong and worship means sincere
Thankfulness to Allah
I'm thankful for the ability to
Say when I'm wrong
Thank you for this opportunity to
Play you this song
I'd like to thank every single one
Of y'all for riding with me
Y'all made all my dreams come
True and united with me yeah!

Thank you for the way to love
Thank you for the world I'm thinking of
Thank you for the way to love
Thank you for the world I'm thinking of
I bet it's easier to look the other way
So glad to go on living and today
If maybe we forget about the helpless hand
So sad because he's wishing his life away

I thank you for the ability
To learn from mistakes
I'm grateful for hard work
I had to learn what it takes
I'm thankful for hard times when
It burns and it aches
'Cause it remind me of the blessings
Been bestowed on my plate
I'm indebted to every one of y'all
That ever bought a record
To anyone who's stolen I'm still
Thankful that you checked it
I'm thankful for my homies who
Don't ever get the credit
'Cause God know that being my homie
It takes some effort
I'm grateful I'm unconditionally loved
By my family even when shit was ugly and
They didn't understand me
I never got a gold record, never won a Grammy
But God been my protector and that's
Why the devil fear me
I'm grateful that my son still
Love to hug his papa
I'm grateful that Allah gave him to me
It's an honor
I'm seeing things more clearly
Now so I'm thankful
So I just had to take a minute
Out and tell you thank you

Thank you for the way to love
Thank you for the world I'm thinking of
Thank you for the way to love
Thank you for the world I'm thinking of
I bet it's easier to look the other way
So glad to go on living and today
If maybe we forget about the helpless hand
So sad because he's wishing his life away
