So Grateful

Lyrics

[Intro] I'm so grateful Be glad for what you got Feel me [Verse 1] Got a lot to be grateful for But it's never nothing wrong with wanting a little more Can't build and stack clout by taking the back route Eliminating that doubt's the only way to max out When you young, you got the heart of a lion And you execute the dreams with every part of you tryin' That's the truth, belief and confidence through the roof And you always feel like your plans are bulletproof But things ain't all smooth, I hate to inform you Disappointments come and time wears on you Then you start to realize the tournament's long And the flame that you once had ain't burning as strong Now the prize that you chasing is harder to see 'Cause the goal wasn't easy as you thought it would be You accomplished a few things while traveling the road So be mindful of your come-ups and thankful for those [Chorus] Uh, nah, I ain't ridin' in a fancy whip And my clothes don't cost a grip Sometimes I barely got enough to pay But see God woke me up today And if the people never understand me It's all good, at least I got my family See the world how you choose, I won't debate you But ain't no question 'bout mine, I'm so grateful [Verse 2] Your reward is on the way because you gave a lot It ain't about tryna match what your neighbor got Gettin' yours, that should be the only stipulation Don't base your life off another person's situation Yeah I know you see bad people who straight bubblin' And you doin' everything right and still strugglin' Temptation's a fast pass to live lavish Blatant disregard for how good that you really have it Once you let greed creep up in you, it breaks the fabric And it's hard for that piece to be reestablished You lost sight of the type of life that was right for you And feeling like there's certain things in life that you're entitled to I mighta knew better if I followed the principle That success comes from doing what you're meant to do Still complaining and wishing that better days hit ya When it's a lot who less fortunate that would trade with ya [Chorus] Uh, nah, I ain't ridin' in a fancy whip And my clothes don't cost a grip (Yeah) Sometimes I barely got enough to pay (Barely) But see God woke me up today And if the people never understand me It's all good, at least I got my family See the world how you choose, I won't debate you But ain't no question 'bout mine, I'm so grateful [Verse 3] Helping somebody's like planting a seed You gotta be willing to give even when you in need Don't wish for life to change like it magically will You gotta start where you at now and gradually build An envious heart can't hide, it's easy to spot it Don't focus on what he got, find out how he got it Asking why him and not you, that left you shook Use that energy to figure out the steps he took When you frownin' on what you got, hateful and mad Imagine if you lost the so-called little you had Appreciation would come fast when things get thin And you'll be praying like crazy just to have it again Bad thoughts breed tough times when forced a lot Am I where I wanna be in life? Of course I'm not I don't bathe in the bad, I endorse the good 'Cause could my situation be worse? Of course it could So see [Chorus] Uh, nah, I ain't ridin' in a fancy whip And my clothes don't cost a grip Sometimes I barely got enough to pay But see God woke me up today And if the people never understand me It's all good, at least I got my family See the world how you choose, I won't debate you But ain't no question 'bout mine, I'm so grateful
