[Part I: "Thankful"]
[Chorus]
Thankful, grateful
Tryna hit the mark till I meet the maker
Need room-service for the maintenance
I been getting use to these changes
Tainted, anxious
Wishing for the rain in the summer heat
Dancing for the bang of the thunder beat
You can't dim the light of the fire
That's what's under me
[Verse 1]
I could've been on a rocket ship
I just quit on my 3rd damn job
Funny how i ain't stop working since
Been getting ready for that curtain call
Ain't selling shit no more, i ain't a merchant
Serving, searching, splurging purpose
For the foreigns, the forward focus
The mental magic
Centered savage, gentle giant jabbing
Jabberwocky stale face
I breeze through the phases
Pages full of prophesies
Patience paid me to keep me waiting
Flagrant
Two at the line and if i make it dont trade me
Worldy wonders, shirley temples, growing number, i never sleep my slumber wanders
Under oath and over zealous
Seasons change and people hate but i just sit back and I'm—
[Chorus]
Thankful, grateful
Tryna hit the mark till I meet the maker
Need room-service for the maintenance
I been getting use to these changes
Tainted, anxious
Wishing for the rain in the summer heat
Dancing for the bang of the thunder beat
You can't dim the light of the fire
That's what's under me
[Bridge]
(Thankful, grateful)
(Thankful, grateful)
You could fuck around and wait your whole life
Watching everyday go by
Smoke break when it goes right
Too late when its no lights
Cheap skate when ya hold tight
Empty briefcase tells no lies
But a flex for the 'Gram ain't strong
As my wood this morn
Ask my dick for the cosign
Fuck around and wait your whole life
Watching everyday go by
Smoke break when it goes right
Too late when its no lights
Cheap skate when yah hold tight
Empty briefcase tells no lies
But a flex for the gram ain't strong
As my wood this morn
Ask my dick for the cosign
I'm thankful
[Part II: "Heatwave"]
[Chorus]
Heatwave
Walking on a fire lake
I could be a sober soul—that's no fun, I'd rather smoke you out today
But this is what I call polite, it could be one hell of a night
Invitation stands—best decision that you've made in your life
The best decision that you've made in your life
[Verse]
Like the wimbledon to and fro; back and forth
I see that you came back for more, I matador
Miss me with the manure, U 2 hollywood
Molly-water connoisseur you feelin good
I feel like lure Cruella, Deville, devour me whole and say what you will
Im spotting the truth
Temp like heat, like too close for comfort
Temp like we won't be here much longer
Temp like Ruffin, ain't too proud to beg
I aim for your head and bet i still hit something
A paradise
To Honolu, for hallelu
The highest praise
I count on you to heal me
Seal the deal dont kill the dealer
Tilt the kilt
Carry and conceal this pistol
Safety on, save a life
Prized posession like Su Young
Who too young to know what real thirst look like?
[Bridge]
And it hurts that we both know what you like
And the yearning [?]
[Chorus]
Heatwave
Walking on a fire lake
I could be a sober soul—that's no fun, I'd rather smoke you out today
But this is what I call polite, it could be one hell of a night
Invitation stands—best decision that you've made in your life
The best decision that you've made in your life
