just appreciate life [scratching]



As I search for the right way to start this

the beat goes on regardless

so a brother might as well say something

I mean the bass is kinda thumpin

I don't wanna waste not one word

ignorant thoughts are best left unheard

each moment is brief and precious

in time we all fall breathless

and as I feel my lungs expanding

I thank God for understanding

an ability to learn my lessons

not to menchin the countless blessings

a little older, wiser, candid, 

I reminisce on the 50 years song

it's kinda wild how I took it for granted 

that I would even live that long

but if today were my last day

have I helped out the world that I'm leaving

and if this were my last breathe

could I postpone the breathing

but if I fail to inhale, that would just speed up the outcome

so I gotta try to take each breath, as if it were the last one



[Chorus]

appreciate life

the brief time that we spend here

appreciate life

speak words that are sincere

appreciate life

for the numerous chances

appreciate life

for the questions and answers

appreciate life

for the wait that's upon me

appreciate life

for what lies beyond me

appreciate life

for the sun and the wind

appreciate life

for my fam and my friends

appreciate life



living in the myst of these miracles

how could I not be spiritual

and why would I edit what comes out

and what more important could I talk about

I don't claim to have all the answers

I don't even know half the questions

but as we search for a cure for cancer

we forget to reflect on our blessings

and what we think about this quit odd

learning to believe in this nonsense

??? that I know ????

but each death that they takes unconscious

don't be believing in the physical

focused on the right side of the decimal

using facts to found philisophical

I like spands limited by the logical

cause and effects gonna get ya

it ain't a matter of if you believe it

we engage and debate over scripture

but ain't never took time to read it

and then we wonder why we live miserable

trapped by a world growin diabolical

but through the all powerful

all things are possible... all things are possible

all things are possible... all things are possible

all things are possible



[Chorus]
