Thanks For Life Video (MV)

Don't think I forgot about all of those days and nights you prayed
All those times you got a phone call, found out I was locked away
All those tears you cried, put the worried lines across your face
But there ain't no age to make your beauty go away

I know you tried, you had your life, you had to live
I was just a kid, I was caught up in the mix
Didn't mean to turn out f*cked up, quite the way I did
There's no blame or guilt or shame or judgment ever gonna fix

I'll make you proud one day, I'll clean up and be great
I swear when I get out this time, the problems go away
I'm gonna do it all, you'll see when I get out this cage
Nobody gonna stop me, I do just what I say

You heard it all before, but this time I cannot go wrong
I really have a plan in place, a life of making songs
Of building family ties and trust where we all get along
Making sure the bonds between us never break and staying strong

Thanks for life, Ma, I know it isn't perfect
I'm still grateful, you deserve it
Thanks forever, like time has no purpose
I still appreciate you, Mama, you deserve it

Thanks for life, Ma, I know it isn't perfect
I'm still grateful, you deserve it
Thanks forever, like time has no purpose
I still appreciate you, Mama, you deserve it

Hey, Mama, checking in to tell you that I love you
The wife and kids are doing good and I'm staying out of trouble
I know you pray to Jesus, I honor pagan gods
But what we each believe in gives us faith to beat the odds

I see you working hard, you know that I do too
I'm going to make it so, we'll always see you soon
As soon as funds get up, grandbaby's coming through
But until then, I'm a hustle up, the bills are coming due

You told me take the risk, you told me dream bigger
So I chase after my dream and now I flow like a river
We came from deep down south, apart, missing trailers
And we both had ups and downs, but we

Learned from the failures
You ain't got to say it, you just lead by example
You get the best advice when life gets too hard to handle
I'm just trying to do all that for everyone that's listening

Because I don't want nobody Mom to visit them in prison
Thanks for life, Ma, I know it isn't perfect
I'm still grateful, you deserve it
Thanks forever, like time has no purpose

I still appreciate you, Mama, you deserve it
Thanks for life, Ma, I know it isn't perfect
I'm still grateful, you deserve it
Thanks forever, like time has no purpose

I still appreciate you, Mama, you deserve it
Thanks for life, Ma, I know it isn't perfect
I still appreciate you, Mama, you deserve it
