Count Your Blessings |
I remember when I used to get depressed |
Overwhelmed by the stress |
Feeling my life was the illest mess |
Always dwelling on the stuff that wasn’t right |
And staring at the four walls in my room all night |
Searching for a way to cope |
The situation shaky like I’m walkin on a tightrope |
But now I see it’s time to get a handle |
And take control of things |
So for me, I’mma light a candle |
And other people got it worse |
I get a lot of love, so I ought give my thanks first |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(I said you better count your blessings) |
Too many times I asked, «Why me?» |
And I recall when things weren’t goin how they 'sposed to be |
Yeah I know you dig what I’m relayin |
And now I find myself devoting more time to praying |
I ain’t saying that I don’t do no wrong |
I’m saying I ain’t trying to sing no more sad songs |
I got mad responsibilities |
I’m building with my family, my loved ones depend on me |
I’ve got no time for envy nor for hate |
My inner power’s too strong |
To let such evil penetrate |
The world around is in chaos |
But I’d rather seek the truth to be found |
Than to be lost |
Experience is always the best teacher |
Look at the signs, feel the vibes, I’m tryin to reach ya |
I see how much now that one should be grateful for |
And we must help the others who can’t find a open door |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings) |
Now as we head into the year 2000 |
And more and more people can’t even get decent housing |
Poor education in the schools |
And poor employment structures, so some choose illegal tools |
By all means, you know we must survive, but think |
The energy we give always comes back to us in time |
We must decide to make the proper choices |
Or the only thing we’ll hear is the cries and the screaming voices |
Too many times, too many times |
Too many times, too many times |
Too many times, too many times |
Too many times, too many times |
Too many times I felt bad |
Too many times I couldn’t see what I really had |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings) |
Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) |
Too many times I couldn’t see what really I had |
(Better count your blessings). |
