Thank You - Black Thought

Huh

Thanks for the memories

For 1st and 3rd of the month check deliveries

Agencies in the early 80's for givin' cheese

The families with parents who had drug dependencies

Dinner from the chicken lady, Miss Genevieve

For every lesson I received as I live and breathe

And all the blessings I believed in and been achieved

Thanks to my moms for never gettin' rid of me

And to my lady baby thank you for forgivin' me

I climb from the lower level to the mezzanine

Honestly I really wanna say thanks for everything

Images of strange fruits hangin' from the trees

Laces on my gym shoes, skatin' from police

Kids playin' on the stoops wearing dungarees

Unbeknownst to them they livin' in the city underseas

Honey and lemon teas, sincere sympathy

The power of positive energy as opposed

To hatred as a motivative, thank you to my enemies

From Memphis, Tennessee

And kitchen chemistry

Centipede Heineken and Hennessy

The barbershop that used to be at 6th and Emily

For all the history and all you did for me, thank you

It’s such a blessing, blessing, blessing to know you

Blessing to know you

I learned my lesson, lesson, why would I hurt you?

Don’t wanna hurt you (thank you)

I wanna thank you, thank you, thank you for givin' me

Thank you for givin' me love

I wanna thank you, thank you, thank you for givin' me (yeah)

Thank you for givin' me love

Places that I’ve known

Many of which I’ve outgrown, thanks for the ride home

Some motherfuckas tried to make give what’s mine to 'em

Thank goodness for my decent when I close

Gangsta and fly hoes, freaks some side shows

Mistakes I’ve made in the past that only God knows

Usually my preference would be to travel the high road

Sometimes I stray from the path, that’s no surprise though

I had this expression of my gratitude

That my attitude didn’t limit my latitude

In cases what I had to do, what I had to do

Even though I was spazzin' boo, I wasn’t mad at you

This oath broken talkin' of appreciation

For frequencies and stations not keepin' the people waitin'

For players who support it and remainin' completely patient

And each and every record in the basement

Listen, thank you
