"Thankful For You" lyrics

"Thankful For You"
(feat. Mr. Talkbox)

Well, it started out
In a spare bedroom (Room)
Two turntables, uh
And a microphone (Phone, phone, phone, phone, phone)

I was flippin' over "33"s
Workin' on rhymes and melodies
Searchin' for some more of You (And a little less of me)

It's never been my dream
To see my face in magazines
It's always been about the music
Hopin' God would use it
To set some people free

But I can say without a doubt
I've never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah
And I've tried to keep my head about me
I'm thankful for the friends around me
I'm thankful for You

Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You

Uh (Uh uh uh)
(You)
(Yeah)

I've been on this road
And you come to my shows
Sometimes just a few of y'all
Other times in droves

But you've been right there to rock with us
We come together, we lift Him up
Seein' you there inspires me, puts a fire in me

It's never been my dream
To read my name in magazines (Ooh)
It's always been (Ooh) about the music
Prayin' God would use it to set some people free (Set some people free, yeah)

But I can say without a doubt
I've never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah
And I've tried to keep my head about me
So thankful for the friends around me
I'm thankful for You

Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah (Yeah yeah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You

It's such a free feelin' that You got me feelin' (You got me feelin')
We're all good, all good, all good (We're all good now)
I love this free feelin' (Free feelin') that You got me feelin' (Got me)
We're all good, all good, all good
Said I love that free feelin' (Ow!) that You got me feelin' (Whoo!)
We're all good, all good, all good

Yeah-eah-eah (-eah-eah)
Yeah-eah-eah (-eah-eah)
Break it down now

Yeah, they say you become who you hang out with
Well, I can tell you for sure
You made me a better man

And I can say without a doubt
I've never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah (Yeah)
And I've tried to keep my head about me
So thankful for the friends around me (Me)
I'm thankful for You

Yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You

Oh
Thankful for You
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Thankful for You

(And that's it, ha ha)
