Lyrics
Im grateful for my family that held me down
for all the lessons showin me exactly how
to treat a person accept a culture
this the foundation to grow how ya supposed ta
the opposite of a sinner
birthed the heart of a winner
purple heart get the picture
my grandads desire
wrapped in my figure
not rappin for figures
true form own poems since back in September
1985
been alive blastin them speakers
teachin them teachers preachin to preachers
pops got confidence passed to his son
rocked audiance asked to go on
so I took the torch wrote more on the porch
finished some songs an in a flash I was gone
followin on my road of dreams
walkin the path my family paved for me
still grateful
im grateful dog, that’s what I keep tellin em
grateful dog, family first relish em
im grateful dog, so Im sending out love
grateful dog, respect all those up above
im grateful for you, grateful for who
grateful for you
I been tellin ya’ll for 20 some odd years
that my folks is the reason im so happy here
an though we shed some tears we still got sunshine
sometimes it got dark and hid behind
those bad days that plague us all, ya know
but the best way to save our fall is to grow
enjoy yourself embrace your health
set a pace in the race for the cure
no doubt
aint no hold outs finish don’t pull out
just believe your word an own your clout
that’s what it’s all about
if your going the wrong way redirect your route
make a change for the good
use your brains like you should
paint a poem you could show ya kids when ya old
rap about goals instead of the stuff you stole
cuz raps in a world that shouldnt exist
only good words should leave your lips
be grateful
(chorus)
an I cant go out without sayin hi ma
showed a world of drama through eyes of karma
relations uncommon missing the comma comma
no six digit kid, chamilion like armor
adapting to situations im always movin
never complacent when drama’s facin
I turn the other cheeks respect all I greet
inherited the heat for all that life done to me
an some might see a hard life lived
but I pulled through kid it’s what my family did
they raised me changed me basically made me
to the person I am being that person that can
do anything I set my mind to
remind you
the road aint been smooth
but I got nothing to prove
come on fam I give it up to you
take a bow make a vowel to be true
im still grateful
