Ain't got no reason to be stressing yeah

I count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
Count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
Yeah, listen
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
I dream of promise
And I've been dreaming the most
I dream of makin mine so I'm not broker than broke
I got a few issues thats been taking a toll
I wanna see the pearly gates and have a house with a moat
I move forward with the purpose of taking it back
They rent hearses for the dreams that they murdered and that's
The same system that I promise been holding me back
I shut 'em down it make a nigga feel proud to be black
Niggas in power sound like peace to me
And I know that make a few people want a piece of me
Yeah turn the other cheek is what he teaches me
I'm like ain't nobody told me it's a fee to be free
Yeah temptation I'm just tryna suppress it
Uh, so far gone can't deliver the message
I'm saying I'm reborn from a broken reflection
And it ain't a damn thing that you'll catch me regretting
I count my blessings
Yeah, I count my blessings
Didn't think that I would be here back when I was sixteen
I was loosing I was loosing talking more than just sleep
Shit was wicked I was boozing lost my balance in the peace
Took the solace in the smallest of things
Most times I don't remember those things
Most times I just let it all go
Didn't know where it'd lead
Didn't know if it'd last
'Til Faygo catch up on your ass now I'm taking it back
See the glass half full and these niggas emptying that
Blessings blessings blessings blessings
Ain't got no reason to be stressing yeah
I count my blessings blessings blessings blessings
Ain't got no reasons to be stressing
I count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
Count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
Uh, black roots in my skin I hope I grow fast
Ah, afraid that I'd be left behind like
It's tribulations I've been facing as a grown man
I need to change I've been abrasive with my own past
I see my self inside my little brothers
I try to help 'em get a bigger understanding of the world
And keep 'em on track
Overly into it sometimes I 'gotta fall back
I carry sentiment that's very intimate I-
I give grace to my father for how he raised me
I'm very grateful he was honored
Protect me from the danger in the place that I was brought up
Like my neck was in a chain he help me breathe when I was caught yeah
Uh, black roots in my family tree
Like tattoos where we planted the seeds
I hope I stand free
I hope I live to see the day that I don't fear myself
Until then extend my hands so I can reach for help

Ain't got no reason to be stressing yeah

Ain't got no reasons to be stressing
I count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
Count my blessings 'cause I've been highly favored
It's like how can you tell anybody how it feels to be in love?
How are you going to tell anybody who has not been in love
How it feels to be in love?
You cannot do it to save your life
You can describe things but you can't tell 'em
But you know it when it happens
