Be Thankful

Rite now a nigga just feelin' real good
 Thankful for evrythang that's goin' down for me rite now
 For all dis happiness and success
 A ***** just straight thankful for evrythang you know
 You think it's eazy bein' me? Na hold on Dogg
 Let me explain sumthin' to all of y'all
 I got a mama an' a daddy 3 bruthas no sistas
 Sum cuzinz, uncles, nephews an' neices
 An' nun to say da leastest hectic
 Wit 2 boyz of my own, spanky damn near grown
 Sittin' in his room just bangin' my songs
 As I roll anutha joint an' make a call on da fone
 It's Pretty Tony it's on an' crackin' my *****
 It's ya big bro I herd ya rappin' my *****
 Evrybody an' there mama duin' dis rap thang
 I'm thankful dat my lil' brutha ain't in da hood bangin'
 Just be thankful for all ya got
 If it's just a little bit it's all ya got
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 Just be thankful for all ya got
 If it's just a little bit it's all ya got
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 Man my sista ben gone for about 10 munths
 Stedy smokin' bluntz an' **** wit da same ****
 But it's time to make a change
 So l rock up my rhymes like krack kokaine
 I'm in da game, much love to my nigga Snoop
 It woodn't be crackin' wit out you
 I woodn't be standin' in deez black walla C's
 I'd be back in da hood wit dem G's
 Frum kidnaps an' jacks, knockouts an' craps
 Frum totin' Tech-9's, to shankin' on da main line
 Timez iz hard we all caught up in da struggle
 Whites, Blacks, Mexicans it's trouble
 Yung kids, we got a man made disease
 I lost my mom so now I'm prayin' on my knees
 Did y'all take care of y'all ha luv wuz precious
 Now l got my daddy, sistas an' homies God bless us
 Just be thankful for all ya got
 If it's just a little bit it's all ya got
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 Just be thankful for all ya got
 If it's just a little bit it's all ya got
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 We ben through sum tuff timez mom late on rent
 Tryin' to get mine husslin' like Larry Flynt
 No food in da fridge but we wuzn't alarmed
 'Cuz my brutha wuz like a good neighba den like state farm
 Peeples always sayin' wut they need an' want
 But they need to start wit they du's an' don'ts
 Just be thankful for day to day
 An' evrythang will be goin' ya way
 Now ain't it odd to thank God, we moovin' in gangsta toyed
 We live an' die by tha sword an' still we thank tha Lord
 Frum da maternity ward to tha morgue, I count my blessins
 It's a game I should but can't afford but I ain't stressin'
 I'm E-S-in 4 mines it's all gunna pay off in da long run
 An' no rest on da grind man a ***** just out here on one
 Stayin' strong all alone or hangin' wit my clique
 I rite a song rite or rong I'm realy bangin' dis ****
 I used ta wonda why we had it so ruff
 My motto wuz my ancha an' for dat I can't thank ya enuff
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 Just be thankful for all ya got
 If it's just a little bit it's all ya got
 You mite not have a car or big gold chain
 Stay true to yaself an' thangs will change
 Everybody pray
 Everybody pray
 Everybody pray
