Thankful Songtext
von Dubb

God is good, God is great
Thank you for the food that′s on my plate
I said I'm, I said I′m thankful
Now if I die tonight Lord take me away
Can you let my soul walk right through them gates
And I'll be

With the blood of black Jesus washed over me
Hope the souls of my black peers watch over me
I'm thankful to be here in the skin that I′m in
This beautiful shade of black, I′m not afraid to be black
But sometimes be ashamed, shooting over my rag
Little homie got grazed, he got hit in his ass
But Lord I'm thankful, it could have been his spinal cord
Or R.I.P. to little PeeWee but that day he ate his Wheaties


And he had you on his side and his guardian angel
Plus his 9 millimeter but he forgot that he bring it
Man that nigga act brainless, enemies put in work
Try not to be nameless, you be a name on a shirt

Walking around here slipping, that′s the same if you bloody
Or you out here Crippin', nigga I′m thankful
That I'm here to tell the story
Hope I can say the same shit when I′m 40, record me
This shit I spit it gotta reach the listeners
Type of shit that free their mind cause mentally they prisoners
Thankful I can preach to 'em

Hope my arms long enough for me to reach to 'em
This track smooth like I′m riding on a beach cruiser
Street smart, A+ nigga but a D student

I′m thankful for the Lord above
In this world of hate he blessed me with the voice to show 'em love


God is good, God is great
Thank you for the food that′s on my plate
I said I'm, I said I′m thankful
Now if I die tonight Lord take me away
Can you let my soul walk right through them gates
And I'll be
