Testo Thankful - Porter
Testo della canzone Thankful (Porter), tratta dall'album Passion For Pain
Thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
I'm so thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
I remember being down bad, broken on a winter night
'Member pops scraping change just so we could eat at night
'Member all the yelling and the fighting and the sleepless nights
'Member thinking that it's time to hit the block and move the white
Now I'm running up a check 'cause I want that new baguette
Fuck that Rollie on my wrist, I want that Audemars Piguet
Wanna make my parents proud, I wanna take 'em out of debt
Wanna put 'em on a jet and get my mom a platinum plaque
For all the nights that my mama cried, I gotta do it big
Gotta make it out the struggle, gotta buy that brand new crib
Put her ass up in that Benz for the life that she has lived
She the strongest independent woman, never take no shit
But growing up I was a asshole, always talking back
Wasn't worried 'bout her cash flow but always asked for stacks
I was thinking 'bout me, was never thinking 'bout her
Working doubles on the weekend just
To give what she earned, and I'm so
Thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
I'm so thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
I was a newborn baby and my daddy was driven
He was turning them wrenches and he was making a living
Was giving love to my mama, riding Harley, she tripping
But he loved the way his life is going, nothing is missing
Was in a head on collision, now he wanna keep living
He got this newborn baby and he don't wanna be missing
But he can feel it, he's dying, he's gotta make a decision
Is he gon' fight for his life or is he gon' give up on living?
But he's gotta pull through 'cause his baby so new
Can't just leave him alone, like what his mama gon' do?
Who's gon' teach him how to be a man and make the right moves?
I thank God everyday that my daddy pulled through
'Cause without him wouldn't be half the man that I am
Wouldn't know how to treat a lady, fold a rubber band
I'd be out in the street doing dirt up in a jam
I'm so thankful that you raised me to the man that I am, I'm so
Thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
I'm so thankful for them struggles that I made it through
Thankful that I made it past twenty-two
Thankful for the prayers that I send to you
Thankful, I'm so thankful
