Phora - Counting My Blessings lyrics
rate me(Hook x2)
I'm countin' my blessings, I'm countin' my blessings yeah
Countin' my blessings, yeah! Said I'm countin' my blessings
Countin' my blessings, just countin' my blessings
(Verse)
My mom always said I was an angel
And now I know my purpose in this world
So I just wanna say thank you
Thank you for the fans who told me
It was alright to be myself
I'd be lyin' if I said y'all didn't help
Need to be successful and put food up on the table
The oldest to the fans, didn't need no record label
They asked how people different, and I just said
These rappers all forgot one thing, that's how to be grateful
Tell yo fans thank you, you keep sayin' you don't understand
But it's prolly cuz this music didn't save you
And these people don't wanna hear about yo money and bitches
And clothes and yo cars, they want music to relate to
I let 'em know they not alone in every single track
And when the world is against them, you know I got their back
See, I see 'em as family, like muthafucka grant me
I'm just tryna save a life through my music, hommie ain't that?
See, that's the type of feelin' that money can't buy
This life is too short to not try
We all angels in disguise, but just because you got
Broken wings, doesn't mean you can't fly
Yeah, money can't buy, this life is too short to not try
We all angels in disguise, but
Just because you got broken wings doesn't mean you can't fly
Yeah, doesn't mean you can't fly, ya know?
(Hook x2)
(Verse 2)
See I ain't scared to put my feelings out in the open
All these people on my emotions, but tell the truth
I always used to wanna fix sum' about me
Then I realized that I wasn't broken
I was just too worried about what people thought and what they'd say
We all gon' do stress, we all gon' do pain
Just last December I was sittin' in the rain
Feelin' like I wasn't good enough and that drove me insane
Till I realized that I had a purpose
See, everyone is special but nobody is perfect
We all got imperfections, I know you been stressin'
But keep doin' yo best, it's all gonna be worth it
You see, I put my life into this music, I ain't got nothin' to hide from
Father and mom made me but I'm god's son
Neva met a person with no flaws, please tell me when you'll find one
I'm countin' all my blessings till the job's done
Cuz my heart's been broken way too many times to count
But that don't stop me from tryin'
Cause if I can still love with a broken heart
Broken wings can't stop me from flyin'
And the fans always gave me a reason
They stuck at my side when everybody was leavin'
Yours truly in God, man, that's all we believe in
So I represent yours truly till the day I stop breathin'
You gave me a reason, you stuck to my side when everybody was leavin'
Yours truly in God, man, that's all we believe in
So I represent yours truly till the day I stop breathin'
