E. Chirume - Gratitude's What I Have for You lyrics

[Verse 1: Thani] Hey, gratitude's what I have for you And I know folks be saying that To build their revenue But I truly care for you, mayne ‘Cause even though I ain't raised up from the hood Still found your music could Touch my soul and change it for good To think of all the times we've locked eyes Just a few feet from the stage Single moments of time Absorbing knowledge of your ways By now those moments left your mind But those same moments Are ingrained in mine Teaching me how to write rhymes And save lives; It's no lie – I'm your disciple Now my life, is dedicated to the race Yeah, call me a student of grace Serving the rightful heir to the throne In a darkened place, He leads the way A worker's worth his wages So I wrote you these pages To let you know, beyond question I'm gracious Dre, for you I'm gracious And all your creative labor, uncensored And for that, I thank you [Hook: Sydney Stewart] Let my life display For the world to see The presence of Your work And how you gifted me I'm grateful, I'm thankful Let my life give light So the world believes How Your love Helped me to believe In Your greatness 'Cause Your gracious [Verse 2: Thani] Honestly, I'm surprised Your music touched me so much ‘Cause honestly, we both hail From different sides of the muck That is this life, some'd say I had luck ‘cause my whole life Has been one bleakly Blind to the blood Both parents, none died, none cried Knew the light at age 5 Yet I died inside Divided from the right Guess in that way, we're the same Everyone, our sins the same And your gift can reach ‘em all Even the suburb's perfect child Me; see I'm just a wee kid Tryna make music But lacking in rubric 'til I listened to you spit Here I am at the pulpit Thinking of you, man! ‘Cause your stories still move me ‘Cause your art is amazing Thank you for poetry That's engaging So good I'm just tryna replicate it [Hook: Sydney Stewart] Let my life display For the world to see The presence of Your work And how you gifted me I'm grateful, I'm thankful Let my life give light So the world believes How Your love Helped me to believe In Your greatness 'Cause Your gracious [Bridge: Morgan Wallace] O-o-o-o-oh!
