"Thank You" lyrics

It's crazy, mm
Every time I talk to You, it's to
Get me out of somethin' or get me through somethin'
But this time, I just wanna say thank You (Thank You)
Derez De'Shon, Gizzle (Pipe that shit up, TnT)

Gangster all in my blood, it's the way I was raised up (Facts)
I thank You, Lord, 'cause I could've been gave up (Been)
But through it all I stayed the same, never changed up (Never, damn, Kai, you goin' crazy)
You know what I came from (Yeah)
Time after time, I done prayed for a sign
But this time, I wanna say thank Ya (For real)
Whole time, I was blind, couldn't see it with my eyes
But I was guided by angels and I thank Ya

Growin' up, man, I experienced a lot of pain (A lot)
Hood was tough, so young, I had to learn how to aim (Facts)
Lost my daddy to murder, we ain't know who to blame (Who)
Lost my homie to murder, that's when it all changed
Anybody got out of line, they could get a fade (Scrap)
Anybody got out of line, they could lose they head (I'm bustin')
Elementary to middle school, I ain't behave (Badass)
High school, I turnt up and caught a wave (Facts)
People thought by twenty-one, I'd be in a grave (They thought)
By twenty-one, I was in the arena on stage (Rockin')
By twenty-one, I was gettin' high and gettin' paid (Paid)
Still here 'cause of my grandma made me get saved (Facts)
Rest in peace to both of my grandmas, man (Both of 'em)
Martha (Martha), Ms. Wadina
I know y'all lookin' down, proud of a real one (Yeah)
You know G's need 'em too (Facts), yeah

Gangster all in my blood, it's the way I was raised up (Raised)
I thank You, Lord, 'cause I could've been gave up (Been)
But through it all I stayed the same, never changed up (Never)
You know what I came from (Arena)
Time after time, I done prayed for a sign
But this time, I wanna say thank Ya (Thank Ya)
Whole time, I was blind, couldn't see it with my eyes
But I was guided by angels and I thank You (Yeah, thank You)
Oh, Lord, I thank You (Thank You)
Oh, Lord, I
Oh, Lord, I thank You (Thank You)
Oh, Lord, I

Thirteen, got on the block, sold a hundred rocks (A hundred)
Remember niggas spint on me, let off a hundred shots (Brrah)
Fifteen slangin' dick, ran through a hundred thots (A hundred)
I was in the kitchen, baby, breakin' down a hundred blocks
Valence and Magnolia, we strapped with a hundred Glocks (A hundred)
My set was smokin', nigga ran from a hundred cops (Runnin')
Twenty-five years later, Gizzle still livin' (Still livin')
Twenty-five years later, Gizzle still winnin'
I be thuggin', but I still'll get down on my knees
Thank the Lord for lookin' over and protectin' me (Thank You)
Thank the Lord for bringin' a gangster this far (Thank You)
Thank the Lord for makin' a gangster this raw (Thank you)
You'd be traumatized if you seen the shit that I saw (You would)
It made me tougher, know Gizzle possess a lion heart
I learned a lot when I was sittin' behind 'em bars (Bars)
I know that shit saved my life and I owe it to God (Facts)

Gangster all in my blood, it's the way I was raised up (Raised)
I thank You, Lord, 'cause I could've been gave up (Been)
But through it all I stayed the same, never changed up (Never)
You know what I came from (Arena, pipe that shit up, TnT)
Time after time, I done prayed for a sign
But this time, I wanna say thank Ya (Thank Ya)
Whole time I was blind, couldn't see it with my eyes (Damn, Kai, you goin' crazy)
But I was guided by angels and I thank You (Thank You)
Oh, Lord, I thank You (Thank You)
Oh, Lord, I
Oh, Lord, I thank You (Thank You)
Oh, Lord, I
