Thankful for You

Thankful for You - TobyMac Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, it started out
In the spare bedroom (Room)
Two turned tables, uh
And a microphone (Phone, phone, phone, phone, phone)

[Refrain]
I was flippin' over 33's
Workin' on rhymes and melodies
Searchin' for some more of You (And little less of me)

[Pre-Chorus]
It's never been my dream
To see my face in magazines
It's always been about the music
Hopin' God would use it
To set some people free

[Chorus]
But I can say without a doubt
I never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah
And I try to keep my head about me
I'm thankful for the friends around me
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You

[Post-Chorus]
Uh (Uh uh uh)
You
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I been on this road
But you come to my shows
Sometimes just a few of y'all
Other times in troops

[Refrain]
But You been right there to rock with us
We come together, we lift Him up
Seein' You there inspires me, put Your fire in me

[Pre-Chorus]
It's never been my dream
To read my name in magazines (Ooh)
It's always been (Ooh) about the music
Prayin' God would use it to set some people free (Set some people free, yeah)

[Chorus]
But I can say without a doubt
I never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah
And I try to keep my head about me
I'm so thankful for the friends around me
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah, yeah-eah-eah (Yeah yeah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You

[Bridge]
It's such a free feelin' that You got me feelin' (You got me feelin')
We're all good, all good, all good (We're all good now)
I love this free feelin' (Free feelin') that You got me feelin' (Got me)
We're all good, all good, all good
Said I love that free feelin' (Ow!) that You got me feelin' (Whoo!)
We're all good, all good, all good

[Breakdown]
Yeah-eah-eah (-eah-eah)
Yeah-eah-eah (-eah-eah)
Break it down now

[Interlude]
Yeah, they say you become who you hang out with (Out with)
Well, I can tell you for sho' (For sho')
You made me a better man

[Chorus: TobyMac and Mr. Talkbox]
And I can say without a doubt
I never had it figured out
Lord, You've opened every door I've stepped through, yeah (Yeah)
And I try to keep my head about me
I'm so thankful for the friends around me (Me)
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You
Yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah (Yeah-eah-eah), yeah-eah-eah
I'm thankful for You
Oh
Thankful for You
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Thankful for You

[Outro]
And that's it
Ha ha
