GRATEFUL

Verse:
Ain’t nobody choose to be alive
It just happens
Now we’re all trying to survive
Some are born to wealth and some are not
Some people have good health
And others struggle just to smile
Oh, it’s so easy to forget
While you’re watching Netflix
Someone else has nothing left
And I’m trying to make sense
Of what qualifies me for this life
When my cousins have much less

Chorus:
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
But what about them
What can they be grteful for
What about friends?
Some of them don’t live till four
What if it hurts to live
That’s something i can't ignore
If they loose everything
Then they will be alone
I don’t have the answers
I don’t know them well
You say that you’re just
But only time will tell
People need some comfort
People need to heal
But they don’t even matter
If you are not for real

Verse:
Oh, it could have been me
Oh, but you showed me mercy
And I you are for me
Who can be against me, yeah
Others do not have enough to eat
Lord I feel so guilty, yeah
Lately I’ve been feeling kind of distance, yeah
Reevaluating my decisions, yeah
Tryna figure out if I should give away
Everything that I own to give somebody
What they’re missing, yeah
Mom raised a giver
But I really didn’t’ listen
I do not give money
To poor people on the street
Can I even say that I’m a Christian
Wanna be a baller
Wanna drive nice cars
But you shouldn’t be a baller
If you haven t got a nice heart
Wanna be a baller
Wanna drive nice cars
But you shouldn’t be a baller
If you haven t got a nice heart

Chorus:
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
Grace, I gotta be grateful
But what about them
What can they be grteful for
What about friends?
Some of them don’t live till four
What if it hurts to live
That’s something i can't ignore
If they loose everything
Then they will be alone
I don’t have the answers
I don’t know them well
You say that you’re just
But only time will tell
People need some comfort
People need to heal
But they don’t even matter
If you are not for real
