Grateful by Chasey The Illest Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Even though my pops in the sky
He know his son shine
But shit it's Nightmare Park where the light don’t come sometimes
Even in the June time
So even though my pops in the sky
He know his moon shine
Get drunk off my words
Or high off my vibe
Like I'm rolling up the herb
Got a blunt full of Earth
And you praying that works
Lil bitch
Flip the gravity switch
Watch the sky become a ocean
Cause we floating in this shit
Plant a seed in a cloud
Hope I grow an angel out
I never been this happy
While I'm feeling so in doubt
They wondering why I’m sad
You hear what I sing about
I'm stumbling on this path
Tryna drown my demons out
Woke up in a dream
Real life I passed out
Pressure on my head
Tryna press me when I'm dead
If you ain't got no haters
Tell me how you getting bread
I been cutting up so much you would of thought a nigga bled
[Hook]
I never ever would of made it
Never ever would of
I never ever would made it
Never ever would of
I never ever would of made it
Never ever would of
Sometimes you gotta try
Even though yo wings broke
You know you gotta fly
Sometimes you gotta try
Even though yo wings broke
You know you gotta fly
[Verse 2]
I'm on fire like a nigga stayed in Cali
Always had the Swank
So I left the Swagg to Kali
Said I'll make it big
Westside to Bed Stuy
They gon know me like I'm Big
That's Sean or Pun
Whichever the one
I decided that I’m gunning shit
If I ain’t "Finally Famous"
You get "Capital Punishment"
Tryna turn a leaf but I fall to corrupting governments
And stupid hood politics
We know you niggas full of it
A nightmare in the Park
Grateful you pulled me through this shit
Dollar to my name
Man I'm lucky if I get food and shit
Praying every day
I know you hear me through this crucifix
Love to my dawgs
I got pains only a crew could fix
Hoes on my wave
360 days on a cruising ship
Lost in my head
Don’t know how I do this shit
I just need a better outcome
Dropped my mixtape
This shit sounding like an album
Fuck going gold
And fuck going platinum
I just hope you like this shit
Cause I never woulda made it
Feel like I'm the greatest
And I know you niggas hate this
Woke up in a dream
Died feeling famous
Do I wanna live forever or just enough to make it?
I really miss my dad and I know he think I'm crazy
But I'm my daddy son so why you tweaking when you made me
And I miss my Grandma too
Cold world back on Snowden without you
And one time to my dog
Maximus I’m loving you
And word to Remo
We know
You higher than a muthafucking C note
And to my Auntie, I won't be a doc
But at least I kept it g though
[Speech: Chasey The Illest]
Aw man
And if you playing this record
And it's the first time you heard my voice in months or years
I'm sorry, I just really needed to close myself off from the world for a little while
But I'm back

Home
I miss you
From the bottom of my heart
Be lying if said I ain't get chills writing this part
Shoutout my pops
You prolly wouldn't even recognize me now
It's been a minute
Just know everything you've ever taught me hasn't been unlearned
I made it this far because of you
So I thank you for everything
And for everything I thank you
Man shoutout Jermaine Cole for signing me to his record label Dreamville
I really don't know what to say man
I'm so humbled, yet honored
I've dreamed about this since I was like 15 man
I can finally say I'm from The Ville
Dude heard my first EP
And a couple singles you know?
Some unreleased shit
I played this tape for him
And he's like "man you different"
Like he real life mess with me
So here we are
It's really a blessing and...
Nah I'm fucking with you
That nigga ain't sign me to shit
I'm still stuck in this bitch broke
Holding onto hope man
But one day
Maybe it'll be fate
And I'll be great
The greatest
And history will repeat itself and be made in The Ville
But for now
The last thing I wanna say
To Kiara Marie
You weren't here long but
I never believed in myself this much until
You came into my life
And I know that might be a lot to take in
But it's true
And I don't know how you feel about me now but
Thank you
For the love
For the memories
For you
I'm Grateful
