Backpack Johnny - 11:11 (My Blessings) (feat. T-Rifik)

This whole time I was blocking my blessings
Should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
It was clear once I learned my lesson
My blessings, my blessings
This whole time I was blocking my blessings
My blessings, my blessings
I should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
My blessings, my blessings
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
My blessings, my blessings
I had to learn to let go and just let (yeah) him

Battling mortality, I'm just trying to heal
I done mastered survival mode and now it's time for me to live
So many nights I set a date with Destiny so she could take me out
thinking the worst to myself, ain't nothing you can play me bout
Karma cashing out, and I'm hurting, I just feel lost
Feeling like my story's over, but I'm working on a spinoff
Gotta get back to my vision boy, before I lose it all
Have my back against the wall, like my vision board
Raised by my grandma's love, and my brother's words
Equipped with everything I needed, til I'm laying under dirt
I seen the outcomes, never needed to see the trouble first
The black sheep, I never blended in, but they love a herd
Still here, but in a better place
And now my Facebooked because I never met a verse
I didn't decimate
Yeah, don't let your mind be your ball and chain
Carpe diem, cause you don't know what tomorrow brings

This whole time, I was blocking my blessings
Should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
It was clear, once I learned my lesson
My blessings, my blessings
This whole time, I was blocking my blessings
My blessings, my blessings
I should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
My blessings, my blessings
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
My blessings, my blessings
I had to learn to let go and just let him

Idle hands, that's the devil's workshop
So I keep moving forward and lift the weight off my shoulders
Until it works out
My name in rooms I never been in so I gotta get through
Earned my stripes so you can blow the whistle
Cause I'm official
I know better now so I gotta act accordingly
Support the people that's supporting me, wholeheartedly
Give them every part of me, never holding them
And be a better man until I'm less of a chore to them, mmh
Leaning on myself, but now I got God's shoulder
The chip on mine was bigger than a boulder
Man you would've folded
But, God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers
Now I'm back in the game, just had to charge my controllers
Mind doing less racing, but I'm closer to the finish line
I got these bars galloping, your boy done hit his stride
Stimulating my third eye, so you know I been inclined
Inner peace don't happen overnight, you gotta give it time

This whole time I was blocking my blessings
Should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
It was clear once I learned my lesson
My blessings, my blessings
This whole time I was blocking my blessings
My blessings, my blessings
I should've prayed, but instead I was stressing
My blessings, my blessings
Took me a while, but I finally got the message
My blessings, my blessings
I had to learn to let go and just let him
