letra de thankful - doc deuce

[verse 1]
i was born in raised in texas, that’s my home state
where i work in various ways to make it and carry my own weight
and it might get me stressed that my flight to success hasn’t really flown straight
but i’ve learned from the turbulence earning experiences that i won’t trade
even if i could, i would leave it where it stood, when i think of all the good, i’ve done plenty
to stay sensible and stick to my principles even during the intervals that were unfriendly
would i be tough enough to choose if it wasn’t for the blues? though others in my shoes have run quickly
right now i’m so proud that i’ve got my son with me
i fought and i won that fate, i took on that weight and all that it implied
while falling from a height so tall it would provide for swallowing my pride
so call it what you’d like but, politics aside, i needed help
it was trouble enough to feed myself
i’d go hungry for days so my son wasn’t phased while i suffered in hundreds of ways, so yes indeed i felt
the agony of broken heart, and i’m still living with emotions scarred
from seeing my families fail and other tragic ends to hopeful starts
going from ends meeting then even them seeming to grow apart
it’s like life showed no regard whenever the road was hard, but

[pre-chorus]
i’d hear a voice inside when tragedy arrived
saying, “though, some have had your back and stabbed it with a knife
you’ve come a long way along your path and, though you strive
are you glad that you survive? are you happy you’re alive?”

[chorus]
and i say “yes, i’m thankful”
and i say “i’m so grateful”
and i say “i appreciate the lessons”
i say “bring ’em on, i’ll keep pressing
as long as i can smile then i still have a reason to
living’s the best thing to do”
and i say (ay, ay)
[verse 2]
i won’t give up my optimism
even though by now i feel like i should have been more influential
my reign was predicted to be torrential
but i am barely making the essentials
living up to little of my potential
i was creative, smart, and energetic but some teachers said it might just be too much so
they could have learned to get me by working with me but they preferred to give me drugs, though
they drugged me up to try to calm me down
“mommy, wow. i feel like a zombie now”
after a couple of years and a couple of pills they tried to bring me back
took the drugs away and left me with anxiety attacks
it usually goes in this order, from add to bipolar disorder
i would have ended up on anti-depressants if i could only afford them
i felt i needed medication or i’d never make it, i thought i was cursed to be wild
but all of the trepidation went away when i witnessed the birth of my child
so while the doctor delivered new challenges and lots of responsibilities
i swapped the chemical imbalances for positive possibilities and i

[pre-chorus]
hear that voice each time i glance into his eyes
saying, “your heart still loves although they tampered with your mind
you’ve come a long way along your path and though you strive
are you glad that you survive? are you happy you’re alive?”

[chorus]
and i say “yes, i’m thankful”
and i say “i’m so grateful”
and i say “i appreciate the lessons”
i say “bring ’em on, i’ll keep pressing
as long as i can smile then i still have a reason to
living’s the best thing to do”
and i say (ay, ay)
[bridge]
slow down
take a second to breathe
slow down
count your blessings with me
slow down
take a second to breathe
slow down
lift your head up and sing

[chorus]
yes, i’m thankful
i’m so grateful
i appreciate the lessons
bring ’em on, i’ll keep pressing
as long as i can smile then i still have a reason to
living’s the best thing to do
