dyanthus - grateful lyrics

[spoken intro]
yo, sometimes we just don’t appreciate the spoken people in our lives enough, you know?
and this song goes out to all those people

i take everything for granted
everything that exists on the planet
i have a tendency to leave things stranded
my entire perspective is becoming slanted
i can’t stand it, i feel like the world revolves around me
i need to find a way to resolve this greed
i need to focus more on all that i need
think about my family, call them and see them
a whole lot more
put them in the light so they can be adored
keep in mind all the veterans that fought in a war
who had had to undergo all the violence and gore
i don’t need more, i just need to show love
appreciation’s what i’m thinking of
i need to think different, i need to change
start giving more homeless people more spare change

[chorus]
i need to be grateful, i’m more than able
i’ll be grateful for the ones who put the food on the table
i don’t have a nice car and i don’t got no cable
nonetheless all those materials just seem like a fable

my mom works everyday nine to five
she makes enough so we can barely get by
sometimes she breaks down and starts to cry
it saddens me but honestly i know why
i can’t lie, i’m f-cking lazy
our situation drives my mom crazy
while she’s out making sure we have something to eat
all i do is sit at home making beats
this sh-t makes me feel like a jerk
it’s time for me to get up and find some work
so i can help my mother every step of the way
maybe even give her something for mother’s day
i look for a job, no one wants to hire
so i guess i’ll stay here spitting fire
instead of b-tching about the way i live
i should thank my mom for everything she gives

[bridge]
my life is not that terrible, i don’t know why i’m sad
my mama gave me everything, yo i couldn’t be more glad
i’d give the same amount of love, respect, and grat-tude to my dad
but he cowardly just walked away when things began to look bad

my life is not that terrible, i don’t know why i’m sad
my mama gave me everything, yo i couldn’t be more glad
i’d give the same amount of love, respect, and grat-tude to my dad
but he cowardly just walked away when things began to look bad

[spoken outro]
real talk, bein greedy, takin’ advantage of everything around us will get us nowhere. gotta always be showin’ that grat-tude. show nothin’ but love. hah, i’m out
