Gratitude's What I Have for You
Hey, gratitude's what I have for you
And I know folks be saying that
To build their revenue
But I truly care for you, mayne
'Cause even though
I ain't raised up from the hood
Still found your music could
Touch my soul and change it for good
To think of all the times we've locked eyes
Just a few feet from the stage
Single moments of time
Absorbing knowledge of your ways
By now those moments left your mind
But those same moments
Are ingrained in mine
Teaching me how to write rhymes
And save lives; It's no lie
I'm your disciple
Now my life, is dedicated to the race
Yeah, call me a student of grace
Serving the rightful heir to the throne
In a darkened place, He leads the way
A worker's worth his wages
So I wrote you these pages
To let you know, beyond question
I'm gracious
Dre, for you I'm gracious
And all your creative labor, uncensored
And for that, I thank you
Let my life display
For the world to see
The presence of Your work
And how you gifted me
I'm grateful, I'm thankful
Let my life give light
So the world believes
How Your love
Helped me to believe
In Your greatness
'Cause Your gracious
Honestly, I'm surprised
Your music touched me so much
'Cause honestly, we both hail
From different sides of the muck
That is this life, some'd say I had luck
'Cause my whole life
Has been one bleakly
Blind to the blood
Both parents, none died, none cried
Knew the light at age 5
Yet I died inside
Divided from the right
Guess in that way, we're the same
Everyone, our sins the same
And your gift can reach 'em all
Even the suburb's perfect child
Me; see I'm just a wee kid
Tryna make music
But lacking in rubric
'Til I listened to you spit
Here I am at the pulpit
Thinking of you, man!
'Cause your stories still move me
'Cause your art is amazing
Thank you for poetry
That's engaging
So good
I'm just tryna replicate it
Let my life display
For the world to see
The presence of Your work
And how you gifted me
I'm grateful, I'm thankful
Let my life give light
So the world believes
How Your love
Helped me to believe
In Your greatness
'Cause Your gracious
O-o-o-o-oh!
We want to thank you, Lord!
We're grateful, we're thankful
We're thankful, Lord
We wanna thank you, God
We wanna thank you, God
Almighty, and wonderful
Oh, Lord!
We praise you, Lord
We thank you, Lord
For everything
Oh, God!
I wanna thank you
I wanna thank you
I wanna thank you!
