Nas - Count Your Blessings lyrics

[Hook 1 - JR GONG] And I've got studios to voice in And I've got news for rejoicing Now a new sun is rising I count my blessings That I'm safe when I'm resting Furniture in my nesting Not by force I'm suggesting You count your blessings I've got love and a**urance I've got new heath insurance I've got strength and endurance So I count my blessings And give thanks to the master That through all the disaster We're still here Together after Better count your blessings [VERSE 1 - NAS] Cause yo', this year, can't wait 'till he gets here 7/21/09 my first son will shine And it's amazing, I'm about to be raising Another made man, and like his dad they'll praise him And some will hate him just cause we're building a nation Like Bob did with Damian, the world will embrace him Girls will chase him, foresee they will not break him And when I'm not around you look for God and thank him [Hook 2 - JR GONG] And I've got somewhere to dress for And I've got no need to stress for And so I'll always put my best forth And count my blessings And there'll be no need for tissues Cause there'll be no further issues If you've got someone who miss you Man count your blessings And I've got love and a**urance And I've got new heath insurance And I've got strength and endurance So I count my blessings And give thanks to the master That through all the disaster We're still here Together after Better count your blessings [VERSE 2 - NAS] You're wishing You were sitting In the top position Picture perfect Nothing less cause you deserve it Without the Hermes You never hurting You knew that you was Destined for greatness For certain But see the over zealous They be thirsting Caught up in emotion You're keeping your composure Like Gershwin Songs by Earth, Wind Keep you in a zone Writing verses So when your pocket's light Know that you have a heavy purpose [Hook 3 - JR GONG] We've got pre-school and day care We've got pension and well-fare And though not all will play the game fair Still I count my blessings I've got joy in abundance I've got life full of substance I've got meetings and functions So I count my blessings I've got something to live for I've got surplus to give more And we're all welcome through his door So I count my blessings And give thanks to the master That through all the disaster We're still here Together after So I count your blessings [VERSE 3 - NAS] I think you're looking too hard for it Want the double R Under your garage door Appreciate the things you work hard for And count your blessing Count your blessings So don't be mad if you ain't fly y'all You got the means To reach the level I'm on You should know that there's only one Nas Y'all But count your blessing Count your blessing Ra! [Hook 4 - JR GONG] And I've got studios to voice in And I've got news for rejoicing Now a new son is rising I count my blessings That I'm safe when I'm resting Furniture in my nesting Not by force I'm suggesting You count your blessings I've got love and a**urance I've got new heath insurance I've got strength and endurance So I count my blessings And give thanks to the master That through all the disaster We're still here Together after Better count your blessings
