Sheek Louch
I Wanna Thank You
[Intro: Jadakiss]
Mhm
Yeah
Yo

[Verse 1: Jadakiss]
You can't fake it, life's only what you make it
Front, be a snake, mess around, get your wig hit
Ex-school boy who wanna go and try to take shit
Found his body in the projects naked
I ain't gon' lie, If I wasn't doin' this now
I'd probably be tied down in a small town
With my eyes on a couple of guys
With they eyes on a couple of pies
'Cause I will survive
Brains is the key to the game
If you ain't got none, what good is a shotgun?
If you ain't got guns, then you better cop some
'Cause the New World Order's around the block, dun
Streets be where Lox get they props from
Check us on the internet, L-O-X dot com
A worldwide message, I try to express it
The best I could for y'all to cherish 'til I perish

[Chorus: Kelly Price]
I wanna thank you (I wanna thank you)
Heavenly Father (Why's the world so cold? Yeah)
For shining your light on me (I love you, God bless my soul)
It's been a long time (Thank you, God)
Since I had someone to love me
I owe my thanks to thee
[Verse 2: Styles P]
They never expressed that life's a part of death
They never go there, but you can blow here
Do twenty-five to life in greens from Lo wear
Out of nowhere, you in the bus, hands is cuffed
Can't call your mom, dog, you know times is rough
You was out yesterday stressin' a better way
Funny thing, they always seem to lock down kings
And the thugs on the street just love to say, "It's all foul"
Watch the honeys check your style
Worthless when they worship what you purchase
They only see ice, not me, under the surface
What's the purpose? I just go my way
Know my way 'til bullets blow my way
Which they might 'cause any night can change your life
Keep your state of mind tight and remain alright (I wanna thank you)
It's plain to fight, but different to shoot, you minute
If you ain't ten different ways to get loot

[Chorus: Kelly Price]
I wanna thank you (Why's the world so cold?)
Heavenly Father
For shining your light on me (I love you)
It's been a long time (Thank you, God)
Since I had someone to love me
I owe my thanks to thee
[Verse 3: Sheek Louch]
Ayo, we handle rap like we do the street, holdin' heat
It's them same crooked n***as washin' dough, ain't nothin' sweet, word
Buyin' beats is like coppin' grams, n***as got too many scams
Give you garbage, slide the butters to their mans
That's aight, though
'Cause even ready rock gets sold on our block, watch us turn nothin' into nitro
And we don't mingle 'cause none of us don't really know you
From the heart, we never talk to strangers, so why start?
Anyway, we rappin' for this luxury shit
I watch wild n***as blow, seen how plush shit can get
But we ain't tryna kiss ass to blow up fast
We gon' take our time and rely strictly on the rhyme
If I wasn't that cat, Sheek Lucian, that rap
Would you still be my man and pass your bottle to my hand?
Would I be in the rain while you pass me in the Land?
Oh, you think by now that I don't already know your plan
To get next to me and possibly sex me
Then slip ecstasy inside a n***a's Pepsi (I wanna thank you)
Money'll never amount to respect, B
And you don't wanna test me 'cause God blessed me

[Chorus: Kelly Price]
I wanna thank you (God bless my soul)
Heavenly Father (Why's the world so cold?)
For shining your light on me (I love you)
It's been a long time (Thank you, God)
Since I had someone to love me
I owe my thanks to thee (There's no one greater)
[Outro: Kelly Price]
And I know (Can you feel me?)
It could not happen without you, you ('Cause I can feel you)
Without you (I love you)
(Sometimes I just close my eyes)
I know, I know, oh, no, no, no, no, mhm (And it's just me and you)
Yeah, I know (With you, I know I can do anything)
It could not happen without you, you
