Grateful lyrics

by

Talib Kweli


Dear family and friends
I need to thank you
In this note that I'm sending you
I need to show my gratitude
I'm truly indebted to you
Thank you for pulling me through
Dear family and friends
I really need to thank you
You were there for me
So I will always be - there for you
And this is how I show my gratitude
Dear momma let me start of with you
I know there ain't a thing you wouldn't do
To try and pull me through
And if there's anything good to be said about me
Than it's true that I owe it all to you
Remember back when we're in our old apartement
Where every minute that was spent was truly heartfelt
Even though pops was gone, I know you stould strong
And equipped me to convert thought to song
And in the end taught me right from wrong sh*t
Even though I ended up doing some wrong sh*t
I came out of it, strong and fit and equiped
With the right state of mind to go and handle sh*t
And to my second dad, It really makes me sad
You're daughters don't appreciate the thing that i had
And that's some true fatherhood
And if I could love you more
Than you know that I would and should for sure
Pops, I'm really glad we're talking again
On the phone to Aruba, long distance and
Every instance when you tell me another story 'bout no guts, no glory
I can asure you, you never bore me
And asure you that Tamara loves you and
And I know that she knows that you love her too
So stop buggin dude
And go and give her a call
Mather of fact, here's her number, cause we family y'all
Dear family and friends
I need to thank you
In this note that i'm sending you
I need to show my gratitude
I'm truly indebted to you
Thank you for pulling me through
Dear family and friends
I really need to thank you
You were there for me
So I will always be - there for you
And this is how I show my gratitude
I wanna send my love to every girl I ever went with
Who saw that thing in me that others couldn't see
Now many do, and they giving love too
But it ain't the same as the love I've gotten from you
So thank you for that, stayed true to that
Even when other cats try to convince you I was wack
Staying back to back
Is the reason why I love all of the women in my life and that's a fact
I'm so grateful for all of the love that I've gotten
Even when other cats act hateful and rotten
It ain't forgotten, but I'm grateful for the negative
Cause through my music I can turn it into something positive
I guess this is how I live
I guess this is how I give
My love through this track
So please remember that
Dear family and friends
This is the way I send my love back...
