Give Thanks (Sound Providers Remix) - Kero One

It's time to pump up the volume all you in the area

From suburbs slums and ghettos through America

I'm here to break the barriers

Unify you and I

'Cause under one God we all are humankind

No matter the race creed color

Or state of mind

There's much to celebrate in this space and time

So I deliver these rhymes to uplift the mind

Spirit and soul with every rhyme I unfold

And I hold my head low and stay humble

'Cause who knows what piece

Tomorrow'll bring to the puzzle

I huddle my hands together and give praise

No matter the weather God's sun provides the rays

And lights the way through this desolate maze

Where the obstacles of life can

Leave your confidence dazed

But I maintain through strife

Struggle and strain

Gain character from persevering through pain

And it's strange how I've complained

When others have had it worse

Lacking in understanding of the next man's hurt

So now I comprehend as I write this verse

So today I give thanks (today ya givin' what )

So today I give praise (Kero One say it again)

So today we rejoice as we spit these words sayin'

Thanks for the roof over our heads

As we rejoice for every day that we're fed

I give praise to the creator above

For givin' us hope in life and promoting the love

It's like we give thanks

For the roof over our heads

We rejoice for every day that we're fed

We givin' praise

Ya'll to the creator above

For givin' us this chance to expand the love

The earth rapidly rotates at a miraculous rate

And we still seek to find the definition of appreciate

The gift of life is a gift in itself see

And this goes out to middle class

Broke and wealthy

I like to recognize all the things in my lifetime

Stayin' alive or the ability to write rhymes

Uplift the mind through these treacherous times

I give (props) to all (mighty)

'Cause the Sun still shines

I walk the earth (mad cool)

With a righteous attitude

Manifest my humbleness and express my gratitude

Realize the worth and quality of things that I got

'Cause all things that you have

Kid you might have not

As I drop you say (word)

But check the words that I say:

Just like the Lord giveth he can taketh away

And today

I take time to realize the strife

Of many people with they conflicts and difficult lives

Open your ears wide

I hope the message ya get

And if you're broke with no job

Or financially set

Let's correct

The issues at hand the moves we faking

And start demonstrating the love for appreciation

Like Mobb Deep we got ya stuck off the realness

And motivate so ya next to (kin) will feel this

We (on drive ya best peel quick)

Niamaj and Kero One's 'bout-

A tell ya what the deal is:

Not to preach or bore ya with flows

Celebration is the key so

The chorus it goes :

We give thanks for the roof over our heads

And rejoice for every day that we're fed

We give praise for good people's around us

Uplifting the spirit

(let) progression surround us

And count the blessings found in life's lessons

With every negative there's a positive message

So step in these shoes for just a few

They may fit snug

If so we're talking to you

Our story unfolds in a town with a beautiful view

Where money flows through pockets

But people still feud

And closer to the ground

Bums hunger for food

Embracing nickels of hope or pennies just for booze

While we view the we see

People at war with each other

Themselves and we

Dying by the thousands how thankful we be

So I'm tryin' to keep it moving

('cause there's a reason we're free)

I say we gotta keep it moving

('cause there's a reason we're free)

Yo I'm tryin' to make moves

(one time for ya mind)

I say we gotta keep it moving

So we find humility

And give thanks to Thee
