Feeling Grateful

This song is for every friend, every family member
And every loved one that's ever helped me out
Tried to help my dreams come true
This one's for you

Damn, I'm feeling great today
I'm just thankful for the love and how I paved a lane
All my worries disappear like they David Blaine
And imma make this clear, I'm tryna make a name
I said I'm locally raised, I said I'm locally praised
I'm going loco these days, bitch I was born to be great
And I admire the way, that I got all this support
From my fam and my friends, they helped me out
That's for sure, yeah
So I appreciate my boy Ethan
Let me roll up to the stu every other weekend
Even let me use the couch in the stu for sleeping
Helped me understand the tunes, so my skill was deepened
Same praise goes to Kan, he was really there
Not too many in this world ever really care
But I know that they did, so they're the homies for life
Know they helped me make a vision with the stories I write
Look, I gotta talk about my boy Iz
Taking hours out the day just to film vids
Supply beats, make tracks, and to help mix
And if I couldn't use my Mac we would use his, hey
Key EmDee was a fan when it mattered
Even when my tunes weren't even worth the chatter
Still he supported, now my stream count is fatter
When I was looking down, he would help me see the ladders
Iz and Key been supporting the dream from day one
And while I know I did a ton on my own, I ain't dumb
Without all of my friends and fam, who really knows
Where I would really be in the music, how I would grow, damn

Hey, so let me say thank you
For showing me the way, I just really wanna say you
Helped me figure out everything I'm tryna aim to
Each and every day, I'm forever feeling grateful
Hey, so let me say thank you
For helping with a dream, I just really wanna say you
Helped me figure out everything I'm tryna aim to
Through everything, I'm forever feeling grateful

I've been hungry since a kid, but I needed fuel
Had a drive to be the biggest, but I needed tools
And there were many friends that helped me all along the way
And bet I couldn't name them all but they deserve the praise
So even if I leave those friends out of these lines
They already know how much they mean all in their minds
Had a vision in my dome, it was all by design
Bout to shout them all out as I'm pressing rewind
Bet I gotta show love to my boy Rej
Showed me how to spit rhymes, look at where it lead
And bet I gotta say what up to my boy Ev
Working every summer night till the song's dead
Look, gotta show thanks to my guy Wolfi
Know that every single day we just tryna win the trophy
He the Kobe to my Shaq, he the Shaq to my Kobe
When we get to courtside, we'll remember sitting nosebleed
Praise up to Disqover for the beat
And the homies who be listening to songs on repeat
They give me all the confidence to keep making the heat
And to say it all again, they be helping with a dream, damn

Hey, so let me say thank you
For showing me the way, I just really wanna say you
Helped me figure out everything I'm tryna aim to
Each and every day, I'm forever feeling grateful
Hey, so let me say thank you
For helping with a dream, I just really wanna say you
Helped me figure out everything I'm tryna aim to
Through everything, I'm forever feeling grateful
