Thankful Lyrics by IAMJAYCE

The Dragon - EP

2018

(Verse 1)
Turn on your radio and it won't be me that you're hearing
And I don't know if I'll ever be on there, all I'm tryna do is make the music that I'm feeling
I'll never sell out and start mumbling to make hits for the children
I got integrity and I trust myself, this is an empire that I'm building
I was 13 when I started writing raps
It was that simple rhyme scheme, mm, cat, bat, hat
Type of shit
If I released that trust me no one is gonna buy that, shit
But I'm happy that I wrote them
They laid the seeds that my talent would grow from
When I write a new song I look back at an old one
So I know I'll always keep improving in the long run

(Bridge)
I'm thankful for my parents who raised me
I'm thankful for rap and everything that it made me
Always growing and you can't reach
When I'm getting to my damn peak
I'm thankful for everyone out there who told me that I'm not gonna be shit
Now you're looking at me and my success like "damn, homie he's sick"

(Hook)
I'm thankful for everyone out there who told that young man that he wasn't gon' make it
I'm thankful for everyone out there who would buy tickets to see me up on stages
I'm thankful for everyone out there who buying, supporting the music I'm making
I'm thankful for everyone who made me who I am until the day that my days end

(Outro)
I'm tryna make stuff you can get behind
My only motive is to try and live a better life
You need to set aside
Any petty beefs you have, cause if you don't
They'll leave you feeling dead inside
Maybe you're getting high
Maybe you're young and dumb
And feeling like, you're gonna never ever die
It doesn't matter as long as you live your life
Stay happy and you'll never regret your time
