Never happy but always thankful
Never satisfied but always grateful
I put my past aside and focus on the future
But it's difficult when cats who used to like you start to hate you
And I owe this to my mom for puttin' up with me
All throughout these years when ain't nobody wanna f** with me
They used to say I lacked the confidence to set the path
But I got a big heart I just let it pa**
Often I sit and wonder bout what I'll be remembered as
To these kids I wanna be that hero that I never had
But then y'all wanna shape me up into a villain
And grow off of my downfall and break apart all my feelings
But I ain't trippin' 'cause I'm learning to accept the facts
Yeah, people come and people go but friends will never last
Yeah, and I was wrong in the past
Then I realized that all could be gone in a flash, so I'm thankful
I'm thankful for the haters
'Cause at the end of the day, it's all just motivation
And I'm thankful for my family
'Cause all I really want is for someone to say that they're proud of me
And I'm thankful for my struggles
'Cause if everything was easy I wouldn't know how to hustle
And most of all I'm thankful for my life, Lord
Forgive me for my sins, you know I'm trying to do right, look
Now all my exes send me texts sayin' that they miss my voice
And how they hate thinkin' 'bout me but they don't have a choice
'Cause all your friends talkin' about me so you can't ignore me.
I put my life into this sh**, you should be happy for me.
Blood, sweat, and tears over the years
Now that I'm gettin' what I deserve
Y'all n***as, damn you got some nerve to tell me
That I've changed and you think the fame is getting to me
But if that's what you think of me then you never knew me.
Yeah, 'cause I just want to make a difference
And I wanna thank the fans and everybody out there listening
'Cause if I died before I made a change, just know I tried to
But most of all, remember that I'm just like you
I just want to make a difference
And I wanna thank the fans and everybody out there listening
'Cause if I died before I made a change, just know I tried to
But most of all, remember that I'm just like you
I'm thankful for the haters
'Cause at the end of the day, it's all just motivation
And I'm thankful for my family
'Cause all I really want is someone to say that they proud of me
And I'm thankful for my struggles
'Cause if everything was easy I wouldn't know how to hustle
And most of all I'm thankful for my life, Lord
Forgive me for my sins, you know I'm trying to do right, look
