Thankful
Gratitude's Evolution: Embracing Growth Beyond Pain
Lyrics
I used to be grateful for the darkness I would guide you through
I used to find value in guiding others through difficult times.
And I'm still grateful, but I'm growing up
I am still appreciative, but I am maturing.
I'm not the same sad kid
I have evolved from being a sorrowful kid.
I don't make the same shit like I did
I no longer create the same negative things as before.
And honestly, I'm just too tired to give my mental what it wants
I am too exhausted to fulfill my mind's desires.
Time to think about all my mistakes and undoing what's been done
I reflect on my mistakes and strive to undo them.
That's why my head over the clouds
My thoughts are optimistic and lofty.
My dreams are way outta the world and I got something more important in my mind I gotta do
I have ambitious dreams and more important goals to pursue.
Somebody gone come across the road a nigga traveled
Others will follow the path I've taken and be inspired.
Feel inspired to continue moving on don't matter who
People will be motivated to keep moving forward.
I want more than normal for the people who continue pushing me to go beyond the future that I used to see
I desire more than the ordinary for those who encourage me to surpass my previous vision of the future.
One day, we can finally catch our breath and see the shit we put together, only then I feel we'll all be put at ease
Someday, we can appreciate the collective achievements and find peace.
Fears on my mind
Fears occupy my thoughts.
Tears make me blind
Tears hinder my vision.
Struggled with guidance, I can't tell if I waste time
I struggle with guidance and question if I waste time.
Pain in my heart
I feel pain in my heart.
But I know that it'll work out
Despite the challenges, I believe things will work out.
Quitting's not an option, that's not what I'm about
Quitting is not an option; it's not part of who I am.
Thankful
Expressing gratitude.
Thankful for you now
Grateful for someone or something in the present.
Thankful for you
Continuing expressions of gratitude.
I want my momma to be proud of me
Desire for maternal pride.
But I know that she is
Confidence in maternal approval.
I'm tryna clear up the minds and the worry
Effort to alleviate concerns and clear minds.
If it's all I can give
Offering what I can, even if it's not much.
Cause nothing's better than a conscience with no worry
Emphasizing the value of a worry-free conscience.
I remember being up at 5 am and tryna fight off all the thoughts
Recollection of struggling with intrusive thoughts at 5 am.
I'm still up as late but know I smile with all the time that passes by cause it don't feel like something precious that I lost
Despite late nights, I now smile, realizing time has passed without feeling like a precious loss.
