Thank You (DMX Salute) |
Can’t let a day go by |
Without saying thank you |
For everything you’ve done |
Earl Simmons one of hip hop’s best |
But better known to the world as DMX |
Born December 18 1970, to be a Yonkers New York legend that was his destiny |
Malcom had an X that stood for unknown |
X marks the spot a king belongs on his throne |
There’s two reason we throw an X in New York fam |
One is for the Bronx the other’s for dark man |
When you heard him rap he had you like 'god damn' |
Cause when he touched the mic |
He grabbed it with god’s hand |
First to debut an album #1 5 times in a row |
Billboard 200 chart he shined |
Sold over 74 million records world wide |
Featured in Belly, Romeo must Die |
Had many beautiful kids who he showed sincere love |
They say never have more kids than you can take care of |
Can’t let a day go by |
Without saying thank you |
For everything you’ve done |
Earl Simmons a product of that Yonkers, New York living |
Hustlers to killers to thieves up in the store stealing |
Poverty to public assistance ghetto where poor stricken |
Prejudice oppressors imprison us through the court system |
Didn’t let it stop him just cause he landed up north big |
'Sky is the Limit' he taught us sort of ignore ceilings |
Other rappers look nice but they don’t give us that raw feeling |
Don’t mean they can walk in his shoes cause they wore Timblands' |
He’s no longer with us but you would know if you won’t listen |
Good took the wheel he’s in a car that the Lords driven |
None of us are perfect we spend time in this world sinning |
Spiritual calculator count the blessings the Lord’s giving |
Animal when he on the track you heard the dog killing |
But when he was out with his kids you see the dog grinning |
Spoke up for the underdogs we was all with him |
When he won we was all winning |
Can’t let a day go by |
Without saying thank you |
For everything you’ve done |
He didn’t say he was the dog cause he know when to bite |
Dog backwards is god he was going to heights |
Way above and beyond when he spoke on that mic |
It doesn’t matter what you go through you could grow in your life |
Every battle isn’t physical know when to fight |
Just admit it when you wrong cause you know when you right |
It’s ironic that the Dark Man showed us the light |
