kid rated r - grateful lyrics
[intro]
so grateful
so thankful
[verse]
i think different
i think outside of how everybody’s thinkin’
never ride waves so i float while they sinkin’
while they takin’ dives i be out somewhere leapin’
synchronized, breast stroke, doin’ laps around the deep end
feels like that when there’s nowhere to put your feet in
kick off the bottom, head high, for the breathin’
pray i don’t drown , that’s word to the lifeguard on the high seat and
my dog’s paddlin’, a.k.a. dealin’
new whip, drop ceilin’, every time that we see em’
symbolizin’ hope, give us something to believe in
we just wanna see em’ ball even if only for a season
til you caught’, l-i-f-e-in’
that’s time you receivin’ for the time you was eatin’
open eyes, no sleepin’, when your mind’s street dreamin’
minus the factor, ain’t no pleadin’
plus, we are not equals, accordingly
they throw the book at you, can’t afford it to read
shout out to the o.g.’s that showed it to me
these the code of the streets, that i’m showin’ you for free
you can never take back what you didn’t say, (nah)
but it usually sticks fact if they get a taped
it’s curtis caught em’ with the blow, these are the breaks
he’s twenty-one, they gave him twenty five just today
his girl in trouble too cause she gave him a place to stay
and now the government is tryna’ take her kids away
she say it’s like a d-mn f.m.l. giveaway
and everybody’s winnin’ even if they didn’t play
my grandma wouldn’t leave the house if she didn’t pray
and sun wouldn’t shine as bright if it didn’t rain
went from a three to thirteen, word to lil’ dave
told me he finally found god, now he gettin’ saved
that’s a smile amongst all of the d-mn cryin’
defending in the trial, amongst all this d-mn lyin’
if everybody’s broke, why you out glam buyin’
to be a d-mn steak around all these d-mn lions
a lot of d-mn dyin’, the toll number’s big
my patna got k!lled over something that his brother did
my boy, lost his baby son, he don’t want another kid
say he’s scared to death, he think it’s cause of all the stuff he did
my little cousin’s gettin’ big, i hold him close y’all
i still get bad dreams of when they tried to ghost r
the bullet almost hit my face, it bounced off both walls
never mind long distance, that was a close call
these real life bars, nothin’ fabricated
my girl can’t get no good job and she graduated
that’s why i go hard, son i gotta make it
these things are on my mind daily i just had to say it
[bridge]
our lives, live it fast, lot of family done p-ssed
so they locked in the trap, for the times that we had
i’m so grateful, could be dead
so i’m so thankful (i’m so thankful)
every mornin’ that i wake, yeah i pray for the strength
gotta make it through the day, high stress, low pay
i’m so grateful, it could be worse
so i’m so thankful (i’m so thankful)
[chorus]
i’m so grateful, (i’m so) thankful, (i’m so)
grateful, (i’m so) thankful, it gets tough
but we’ll never break though (so what)
this is what we’re made for, i’m so
grateful (i’m so) thankful (i’m so)
grateful (i’m so) thankful, it gets tough
but we’ll never break though (so what)
this is what we’re made for
[bridge 2]
thankful
grateful, thankful
lives live it fast, family done p-ssed
or they locked in the trap (trap, trap)
[verse]
my uncle alvaro just died of cancer, he showed nothin’, but love to me
two sons in heaven already there to keep him company
but they was like brothers to me, so that made me cry, when desi died
it was back in the nineties right, but it still f-cks with me
my uncle pancho p-ssed and didn’t get the time or chance to see junior grow
not even one years old and he’s going to his daddy’s funeral
uncle benny got life, don’t write him as much as i should
honestly, i probably don’t visit him as much as i could
i got brothers locked for hustlin’, some locked down for nothin’
conspiracy, you could get locked up for frontin’
and the kids lose their daddy, girlfriend chance of a husband
mother loses the son, it’s more than just one that they cuffin, so we pray for em’
yeah, we pray for em…
