Check, I stopped focusing on whatever whoever I'm lacking or missing (Lacking or missing)
And thanked the Lord for the things I possess
Now I got many ways to get rid of the stress, when I get stressed
Who ever thought talking to the metronome, would be so cathartic
Now I’m in touch with myself, damn it I'm blessed? (Damn it I'm blessed?)
Showing love where I can, tryna be optimistic
While instilling positive thinking to those around me
Got me feeling like Mahatma Gandhi
Finding Heaven in a living hell
It don't matter if I move like a snail
As long as all my bars are hard like my shell I’mma prevail
Wishing well for the people that pray I stumble or fail
Wish ‘em well cos that negative aura can't do me well
And I gotta protect my energy at all costs
Even if it meant, cutting costs, and paying less attention to ‘em
Showing less affection on some lesser friends tip
Till my fantasies are manifested, had to stay in tune while I let ‘em know that I’m in it for the long shot baby
I swear I'm picking all the doors locked I'm a
Small town nigga down to bust a roadblock, uh
Grixxly about to drop he cannot let the ball drop
So I been cutting down on distractions
Writing down records reflecting on all my past afflictions
On how I kept chasing daughters offering everything short of love and commitment
Been feeling distant and slightly indifferent till I decided to
Take a step back like Kemba Walker to just to see the bigger picture nigga
I started acting more, and talking less
Like calling all my dawgs to check their health
Tryna make sure my partners doing well and swimming in wealth, Grixxly

I am nothing but thankful
Nothing but grateful
For everything that you've done for me (Life's been)
Nothing but stressful
Sometimes I’m doubtful
But you've never forsaken me
I owe everything to nobody but to you Lord
Place no one above thee there ain't no other way to it Lord (I am)
Nothing but thankful
Nothing but grateful
For everything that you've done for me (Life's been)
Nothing but stressful
Sometimes I’m doubtful
But you've never forsaken me (Never forsaken me)

You know someone once said
No degree of worldly darkness can extinguish the glow of a soul's inner light (Inner light)
And how growth is to know you belong in the light
How alone is a home you build to neglect the blessings thrown in your life
Then he said they're always there, you just keep ignoring the size
So I gotta stay grateful (Grateful)
Grateful

I am nothing but thankful
Nothing but grateful
For everything that you've done for me (Life's been)
Nothing but stressful
Sometimes I’m doubtful
But you've never forsaken me

I am nothing but thankful
Nothing but grateful
For everything that you've done for me (Life's been)
Nothing but stressful
Sometimes I’m doubtful
But you've never forsaken me
