Blessings
Gratitude's Path
Lyrics
Uh, yeah, yeah
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment
Mm-hm, uh
Confirmation or agreement
Keep it real with my, uh
Emphasis on keeping it real with someone
Ayy, I keep it real with my niggas
Staying true and honest with friends
Smarten up, they go hard just to kill it
Advising to be smart and work hard
Why pimpin' you aren't on your pivot (yeah, yeah)
Questioning someone's focus or direction
Kept swungin' it formed into divots
Referencing persistent effort and its impact
We was armed and involved
Past involvement in conflicts or challenges
It get jiggin' if we show for the call (yeah, yeah)
Anticipation of trouble when answering a call
War heart in it, lurkin' and doggin', got old friends you ain't talkin' with, uh
Describing a tough, guarded lifestyle and strained relationships
Van Gogh couldn't drew
Comparing oneself to Van Gogh, highlighting uniqueness
Gotta watch every who when you blew, they bangin' at you
Warning about being cautious after achieving success
Damn, the hood got you cooped and it grew, feel like a noose
Feeling trapped or oppressed by the environment
Proven to stand on your ten when it's on, and solid as all
Emphasizing reliability and strength in challenging situations
Hear my pains like I'ma be there tomorrow (brr)
Expressing deep emotions and the struggle to be present
But we ain't see 'em at all
Not seeing familiar faces despite the emotional connection
It kills that we can't speak 'cause you're gone
Sadness over the inability to communicate with someone who has passed away
They hate they see these niggas tryna ball (yeah, yeah)
Observing envy from others watching attempts at success
What I peeped on that corner would get you wiped without Charmin
Describing dangerous situations on the street
From the cement, flowers done arose from a rock
Metaphorically depicting growth from challenging circumstances
Either handlin' lines or I was movin' exotic, we wanted cars
Recalling involvement in illegal activities to achieve material desires
Feds file charges, friends turn to songs (yeah)
Facing legal consequences and betrayal by friends
The more poppin' I get, the more this shit starts to hit
Acknowledging the impact of fame on personal life
I came from walkin' the flips and then Monopoly hit
Transition from a humble beginning to success in the music industry
'Cause they ain't stoppin' the rent
Challenges of maintaining financial stability
They want us locked in the pit
Feeling societal pressure and discrimination
Copped my mama some nice things (yeah)
Providing for family and buying luxuries
Some minks and all kinda rings (ayy)
Indulging in a lavish lifestyle
From rappin' and shit
Success in the music industry
Yeah, wear it out, we ain't out, showin' love
Expressing love and support
Toe the line for callin' on me, cheerin' on
Dealing with challenges and criticism
Harvard, my dawg got raided while the lecture goin'
Recalling a friend's legal trouble
We was in the trap, only thing we been livin' on
Surviving by any means in a difficult environment
Keep it all blessings (yeah)
Embracing all positive aspects of life
Falls turn to lessons
Learning from failures and setbacks
Far as all the stressing (yeah)
Coping with stress and challenges
Eyes on the message
Remaining focused on the important message or goal
Keep it all blessings
Continuing to appreciate the positive aspects of life
Scars and the test's
Bearing the scars from life's tests
Keep it all blessings
Acknowledging and appreciating blessings
Beam me up, goin' far, see me there
Yearning for progress and success
Purple cough sippy cup
Indulging in recreational substances
Frizz finna lean me up
Experiencing the effects of substance use
Yeah, that's my nigga from way back in the day
Long-standing friendship and loyalty
So if you play, I'ma have to back it out and then spray
Warning against threats and violence
That's how we lay
Describing a lifestyle of caution and readiness
I can't say what that happened to me
Maintaining humility despite success
To tell the truth, without the booth, be a name on the grave (damn, damn)
Recognizing the impact of music on legacy
So praise the roof, I had the juice to go and pave all them ways, uh
Celebrating personal achievements and influence
