Blessing

歌詞

Too many times I felt bad (count your blessings) Too many times I couldn't see what really I had (Yo.. just.. 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 (I say to thee well 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'ma 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) ..
