Thank You Kindly Lyrics

[Intro]
Yea mane, first off I wanna thank God
Thank all my family, my friends
All the people that supported the movement from the beginning
Thank you if you bought the album
Even if you didn't buy the album, but you listened to it
Thank you for listenin'
That's all I ever wanted when I was younger anyway, yo


[Verse 1]
I went from ashy to classy
'05 mashin' the gas on they ass and spaz 'til somethin' happen
Outlast the flashy, trap route and passed it
Even when I was dead broke, I was far from average
Close to crashing, Shipes hit me
Off of the deal
, to be real I was quite gifted
But fuck it I'm ridin' with him to the finish
Ain't like labels was callin' on niggas from Mississippi
I gotta get it while the gettin' good
Get my partners and my loved ones out the hood
It's understood
That ? hit me with the title of my first tape that made the Earth quake
When it dropped, I swear to God, it felt just like my birthday
KRIT was here all of a sudden was the topic of discussion
Creative Control, videos was crushin', concussion
Some would say that I was merely lucky, but fuck 'em
Blog comments don't bother you as much when you suffered
On the come-up, for a meal ticket
Sometimes they didn't respect the south, I learned to deal with it
Still tow holo flow, I still kick it tape pop
Shout out to Watts for keepin' shit chopped, thank you kindly
[Outro]
To all the supporters of real hip hop
To all the real people out there
To all the coasts, all the people overseas
All the producers, all the artists
Any and everybody that showed me love
And even the people that didn't, hah
Thank you kindly

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
