about
Thankful is a track that I wrote that I felt reflected my entire psyche in the most accurate way in the creation of this upcoming album of mine titled, "Carolina Boogie Down Baby." Even in the midst of dealing with real life challenges that would plague us in anxiety and worry, it's still important to remind ourselves of how far we've come in our journey. - CB
lyrics
I'm thankful some counted me out
Now I ain't counting em' in
Replaced fear with some cheer
And rerouted my bliss
As the main source of inspiration
To the door with much more went my indignation
Big cheesing, we is soaring as an indication
UFO BABY seizing the globe, it's an invasion
Hol' up, what's the wait man?
Higher self said, "you require a little time,
A butterfly is gonna fly when the conditions are right"
Till the breeze carry me into a better destination
I'm set on paper since living is my only reparation
A new day, I spread wings of fire
Unbreakable was a song that made me feel like a king as a child
I'm just one of the dudes who maneuver the rooms
Playing it cool while niggas making a fool of themselves
Oh well, onward I propel
How you think I got this hot?
Homie, I know Hell ain't nothing but a mindset
Yeah
Thankful I've seen another 24
Now we gotta do more
Same shit, just a different day and age
Ain't nothing new, Lord
Nah
Thankful I've seen another 24
Now we gotta do more
Same shit, just a different day and age
Ain't nothing new, Lord
Lord
Weed in my bowl with a slither of hope
For when I can't comatose, gotta get up and smoke
Anxiety is tryna acquire the best of I
Society just want me to fall in line, I let a sigh out
I'm not these jesters who would sell themselves for some slight clout
Focused on doing me and choosing my route
And so my life is something I can always write bout
Ain't tryna squabble but I'll fight if it's the right bout
I don't really have time for that
I'm mining for the diamonds, ya'll hype finding scraps
And you wonder why the audience calling you kinda trash
Back to the drawing board and you gon need to a light a match
And a flamethrower to ever try to steal the reins over
It's funny how the rain is over when you're reign's over
You drunk fucks, I ain't tryna hangover withcha
Just get chicken with my chick and wave
Hello bitches, respectfully though
Thankful I've seen another 24
Now we gotta do more
Same shit, just a different day and age
Ain't nothing new, Lord
Nah
Thankful I've seen another 24
Now we gotta do more
Same shit, just a different day and age
Ain't nothing new, Lord
Lord
