K-Rino - If It Wasn't For You lyrics

In these days and times
Man, I can’t put it into words
Gotta give credit where it’s due
Man, if it wasn’t for you
You know what I’d be, any of us
All praises due to Allah

I’m no different
I’m the same as a lot of men
But, your hand’s the only one that
I can put my problems in
I appreciate all the blessings that
You be droppin’ in
And helping me out of every
Situation that I was in
I can’t thank you enough
For being patient with me being evasive
Complaining in my ungratefulness
The times you made a way for
Me when I was paperless
And all I had to do was pray for it
No need to make a wish
Then with God speed, velocity I’m blessed
An eternal amount of words
Could never properly express
I’m tryna overcome my slippin’ and rebellion
And wipe my slate clean of every
Duty that I failed in and if I please
You what men think don’t matter then
‘cause any status granted by
Man pales in comparison
Want you to know that forever that
These are words that I’ll
Never change, signed K-Rino
Your imperfect child

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose

They say you work in mysterious ways
It ain’t mysterious
We hear you when our spirit is raised
As I travel through the
Darkness among these strangers
You navigated me past all the unseen dangers
And I didn’t fall short
I fell far to new depths
But, I’m wise enough to know that
You guided this fool’s steps
Pullin’ me up and then helpin’
Me out of the trouble
A lot of people turn on you as
Soon as they face the struggle
But Jesus was a prophet
You made it tough for him
So if they choose not to believe in you
That’s up to them
So I submit no matter how hard it get
And I can’t lie
It’s been a lot of times I wanted to quit
I remember one day complaining ‘bout
My life and it's facets
‘bout how bad I was doin’ and
How hard that I had it
Then you humbled me at a corner
Store when I passed it
Saw a homeless family walkin’
Pushin’ a basket, sayin’

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose

When I can’t confide in nobody
You willing to listen
Providing solutions to problems when
Answers are missing
You helped me go to war with
All the ratchetness in my system
All those I’ll-never do-it-agains if you just
Get me through this one
So it’s necessary I pray each and every day
Thankin’ him for a ton of things
That I can never repay
You either with him or you not with him
No areas gray a man is judged by how much
His sins and charities weigh
All the times that you saved me
Nothing should cause doubt
Non-coincidental last minute blessings
I lost count
If living to be a thousand, I could do such
And you never do nothing else for me
You did too much and if I never reach the
Level of a breakthrough star
I’m just grateful that I get to
See how great you are
The world might say I’m nothing
But accept that never
I look in the mirror and see
The most blessed man ever

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose

If it wasn’t for you
I would be a misguided soul
I appreciate the gifts that you
Allowed me to hold
And if I lost it all tomorrow
Still you I would choose
Because if not for you
I wouldn’t’ve had possessions to lose
