Teeayebee - Happy to Be Alive

Thank you lord for waking me up
May not have all I want but honestly I got enough
Wit my own 2 eyes more than 5 times
Done seen my life sparred by divine design
N 02 close range nigga tried to shoot me
I got away pause that nigga tried to do me
I remember his face the car model n make
A 90 something Ford Taurus red Missouri plates
Highway 40 East was the place
Age 21 damn near lost my life on the interstate
God had to b watching n said not now
Car riddled wit bullets I got away somehow
Ian gon rant ima keep it real
Excited to b alive cuz that night almost got killed
Life ain’t always fair but I persevere
For us it’s unjust but I’m glad I'm here
Happy to b alive I'm just thankful I'm living
Many times almost died or almost went to prison
Ima swallow my pride n admit I b tripping
Cuz I'm grateful to b free glad to still b existing
Could fuss n cuss about life n how it's tough
People wit skin like me got it twice as rough
They throw us in cuffs n look at us wit disgust
Kill us off break up our families ignorant stuff
Deny us quality living pit us against each other
Poison our hood wit drugs lock up innocent brothers
Keep us n dark then ask us y we not educated
Give us a little then tell us to b happy you made it
I could write an album strictly bout injustice
The world that we live in is truly corrupted
Picture those wit no money n 3rd world countries
You blessed if you eat every time u get hungry
Take nothing for granted b happy wit what you got
Becuz you never know when the clock gon stop
It could b better but I won't fret
Cuz my heart still beating n I got breath
