Still Grateful

Just take it in

If you could trade your life for their life, tell me if you would
But don't compare your life to their life, they only post the good
Would I make my life perfect? Only if I could
But don't compare your life to my life, I only post the good

And I'm still grateful for the ones I love
I'm still grateful for the ones I got
And all the love they brought
Loyalty and love can't be bought
And staying solid, being honest, things that can't be taught
I close my eyes and say a prayer for all the time that I wasted
On giving fucks about the people that hated
And I couldn't hate back, I'm built different
I'm not made out of hatred
Hope my enemies will prosper and all of us make it

I need to find a way to fly away
So I can have the time and space
To find a place inside my soul
Haven't had the time to think
I used to think that life was better through designer frames
With diamond rings and diamond chains
And living for the finer things

But I think that I just noticed it
With the people I'm getting closer with
It's more about the family I'm growing with
And businesses and ownerships
You know

If you could trade your life for their life, tell me if you would
But don't compare your life to their life, they only post the good
Would I make my life perfect? Only if I could
But don't compare your life to my life, I only post the good

I'm still grateful for the ones that hate
I see through the bullshit and the fake
I got love from my fam that stay solid through the ups and the downs
But I'm still grateful for the ones that break
All these L's turn to lessons, let the hatred fade
I kept the real, that's how I was raised growing up in my days
2012, all these memories made
And I'm still grateful for my memory lane

I stay solid, never fold over diamonds and gold
I stay silent through the things that I've seen and never told
I need action in my life, these words get old
And somewhere down the line, I see my heart turn cold
See I don't really know what isn't right and what is
'Cause some people happy with a wife and their kids
And some people happy with some ice on their wrists
Either way, just love the life that you live

If you could trade your life for their life, tell me if you would
But don't compare your life to their life, they only post the good
Would I make my life perfect? Only if I could
But don't compare your life to my life, I only post the good

And through all the ups and downs, I'm still grateful
For the present and now, I'm still grateful
My feet ain't touching the ground, I'm still grateful
I got my head in the clouds, I'm still grateful
