Thankful ft. King Dee Lyrics

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet

Working three jobs just so we could eat

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet

Working three jobs just so we could eat

I'm from the struggle, no food in the kitchen Free lunch, Section 8 living

Mom had pride so we never seen her cry

Working three jobs just so we could survive

Did it by herself, no pops to help provide

I was young but as I grew up I realized

Nothing in this world's given, you gotta take it

So I tell my daughter every day we gon' make it

I'm from the streets, you don't hustle, you don't eat

So I stopped selling drugs and started killing beats

You gotta keep a gun right next to where you sleep

I'm from struggle Sacramento, city of trees

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet

Working three jobs just so we could eat

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet

Working three jobs just so we could eat

My mama told me right, my daddy told me wrong

My daddy told me how to make my money fucking long

My mama told me how to give a nigga a little respect

And bless a nigga before I take his nigga top off

I'm never doing wrong, I'm from the place of tall trees

Where they know me, see, I learned how to flip a pack, see

I learned how to dog a nigga in the streets, you see

Cause I'm a dog ass nigga without a leash, capisce

I'm running out here, and I don't see no fucking fear

My mama told me, boy, man, stay out by the streets, I'm like Wayne

I let my dreads hang, show me my opponent I don't give a fuck

I'm about everything, I'm with the shit

I tell a nigga, go ahead and watch it slip Nah, before I knock him off his shit

Look, I'm the king like a piece Nah, and I see a nigga in the streets

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet Working three jobs just so we could eat

Mama, I'm thankful for all you did for me

Put a roof on our head so we could sleep

Always made sure we had shoes on our feet Working three jobs just so we could eat
