Lyrics
Thank U Lord
For keeping me woke everyday.
Thank U Lord
For keeping my family from getting smoke everyday.
Thank U Lord
For bringing me up thru the timeline
To see you come back in tnese end times.
Thank U Lord
For blessing me with the skills to spit.
Thank U Lord.
For keeping me focused even though I stay lite.
That bullet that grazed my cousins cheek
Miss the target instead of laying him dead sleep.
That spray of bullets that hit my other cuzzos car door
Projectile altered and they missed my cousin Big O.
For not taking my momma away during that stroke.
Without her in this world it would be hard for me to cope.
For taking my brother from being a thug out mess.
To being one of your faithful and one of your most bless.
For keeping me afloat even though I deserve less
I noticed your footprints in the sand when I'm just too stressed.
And when that mack truck hit me and I should've been dead.
Car totalled but I walked with a fractured thumb and slightly bruised leg.
And the countless blessings they never end.
Not to mention that you die for my sins so we can all get in.
Chorus:
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Lord
Eddie D Verse:
Thank U Lord for moms and pops raising me.
It's alright they died when I was ages 8 and 13.
Still gave me game. Temporarily
Insane was. Thought that you abandoned me.
I really couldn't handle it.Brains all scramble
So I turned to the drank and dank. Couldn't ease my pain.
People turned their back and was spitting on my name.
What the hell I do. I'm just being myself man.
Guess I had to look inside this book of health man.
Damn. I guess there ain't no better kind of health plan.
Get the biblical striptures and seeing pictures of you.
Learn how you live and How living in me too
It's a trip you know.
Even though I'm still kinda a sick I don't have to deal with the same shit no mo.
Yo I can't do it by myself. I can't.
Chorus:
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Jesus
Thank U Lord
