[Intro: Protoje]
And you can listen to nature at peace you know
You can’t hear it?
Free you know
Like how it used to be
And I give thanks in every day
Be thankful in every way
And I give thanks in every day
Be thankful
Yeah, Gentleman
[Chorus: Gentleman]
I have found a reason to be thankful everyday since I said I would
What is shown, it’s not necessarily the things them that mean you no good
So be sure, when you troddin' on you way
‘Member say you not alone inna the ting
Watch you focus, life so glorious
When you know it's just part of growing up, growing up
[Verse 1: Protoje]
Physical life is secondary
Inner peace is mandatory
So which category do you fall in
This morning, got a warning
Ensure my comprehension
Understand my calling
Help me understand this calming force
That my lioness posses when them swarming to us
In my palms the truest forms of herbs from farmers
Who is spiritual healers in these times upon us
[Chorus: Gentleman]
I have found a reason to be thankful everyday since I said I would
What is shown, it’s not necessarily the things them that mean you no good
So be sure, when you troddin' on you way
‘Member say you not alone inna the ting
Watch you focus, life so glorious
When you know it's just part of growing up, growing up
[Verse 2: Protoje]
Many times I’ve promised, many times I’ve broken
Too many times I’ve spoken
Quiet is thinking, him eyes nah blink catch the riot within him
The word from mental to self
No take part inna things weh detrimental to health
Because the journey for spiritual wealth
May differ from the want that’s sentimentally felt
[Chorus: Gentleman]
I have found a reason to be thankful everyday since I said I would
What is shown, it’s not necessarily the things them that mean you no good
So be sure, when you troddin' on you way
‘Member say you not alone inna the ting
Watch you focus, life so glorious
When you know it's just part of growing up, growing up
[Verse 3: Protoje]
After every dark night there is a new day
And with every new day I pree a new way
That mean a one more gone
That mean a one less left
So one more chance fi make it one well spent
Man hell bent pon satisfy them own greed
A spend the money them don’t have pon what them don’t need
And ‘cause them don’t read that mean it don’t reason
A time for which there is just no season
[Chorus: Gentleman]
I have found a reason to be thankful everyday since I said I would
What is shown, it’s not necessarily the things them that mean you no good
So be sure, when you troddin' on you way
‘Member say you not alone inna the ting
Watch you focus, life so glorious
When you know it's just part of growing up, growing up
