Mr. Magic, Mia X - Thank You Lord For My Life lyrics

Magic my Lord, our father
There's so many things I need to say
And alot of people don't wanna hear it
But ya know what? I'm a say it anyway

I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
Your the only one that understands my pain
I'm twenty three
I done seen the whole world rot
Every type of crime
Loud cheers from the audience
They was jocking my style
Buck wild, doing my thang
Fulfilling my dream
Shit, I remember thinking about back
When I was a teen i know I'm blessed
Just having this tank around my chest
Cause every city that I been
To homeless people facing death
I shed a tear
Could never understand thier pain
Can't even shelter thier own families
In the pouring rain
What did they do to deserve this life
Was it so horrible to make
Them serve a homeless night
Shit ain't right
Cause we eating, sleeping in good health
What we don't want we throw away
Thinking only yourself
People need help, this generation we lost
Crying for what we want
Not just crying for what we need
Men have to hunt just to feed
And we complaining bout bullshit
When we should thank him for the
Smaller things we did get

I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
Your the only one that understands my pain
I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
Your the only one that understands my pain

Father I thank you for granting me
Another day to open my eyes
So I can see my little boy and girl play
Pray for so many worldly things
I lust and greed
Got us calling on you mostly when
We think that we need something
And we be running to the
Bible when we locked up
But when we free we tryin a tear the block up
Negativity's embedded in our brains along
With the mental chains
That we wear thanks to the slave masters game
I came to humble myself
Cause through your mercy and grace
I got my freedom
My health and my spiritual wealth
My faiths been tested many times
The devil's so busy
But you gave me strength to conquer evil
Lord I feel you in me
Please forgive me for the times
I haven't been right
And God, I thank you for this precious gift
My life i love you Lord

Lord me and Mia
We do this all for you

I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
See, I'm trying to teach the whole world
I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
Cause it's you that understands my pain
I hear people complain they
Fat but you blessed, people hungry
What you don't see those children on TV
Starving and bony you phony
Would they complain if they could
Eat half that you eat
Or maybe sleep some of the places you sleep
I hear people complain they broke but
You blessed cause you living
Better start thanking the Lord for the
Life that you was giving
Not a preacher but I'm preaching to
The people I can reach
Tell 'em you say your prayers
'fore you fall asleep
If you ain't saying your prayers then
You ain't getting no blessings
If you ain't getting no blessings
That's why your ass is stressing
I'm trying to teach a lesson
If you listen to the words I speak
You can see my Lord is the quickest
Way to get back on your feet
Parents should be teaching this just
As soon as your born
Wouldn't matter it's out the Bible
Or the Holy Ahran
Everything is everything and my
God is the beginning
With him, no losers, just winners

I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
You see I'm trying to teach the whole world
I thank you Lord for my life
Forgive me Lord for complaining so much
I thank you Lord for my life
You can truly understand my pain
I thank you Lord for my life

I mean, just think about it
Everybody in this world are sinners
It never matters to him
Because we all his children
You know what I'm saying?
Everybody here is capable
He's coming back someday yall for us
So you gotta straighten out your life
Know what I'm saying?
Stop complaining about all the small things
Start waking up in the morning and
Thanking for things that you have
You know people that's blind
Will give up everything they have
Just to have sight people with no fingers
Will give up everything they have
Just to have a hand and you get up and you
Complain about small things
You can't pay a light bill
You can't put gas in your car
But your walking, your breathing
