So many times, you took the time, to sit down & explain So I thank you for my life, filled with memories of love so engrained So I thank you Grandma, Marva, Christalia & yet too many to name Cause the simplicity of life is so complex, That many a youths go astray, but now me
Check it with a Bird's I View, now me sight it with a Bird's I View Now me check life from a Bird's I View, so to you I say thank you (2x)
All my life I've been blessed, with heartical bredrens yea That looked out for me, even when their advice cause me pain, but Through it all yea, our bonds never budged yea So I give thanks to you for helping me, become the man, who I am, now me
Chorus
Mother at 15 too young, to deal with life's struggles yea And everywhere, every time, trouble there right in your face But you showed me light, Mamma you gave me life So I give thanks to you for all, your wonderful advice
