Thankful Lyrics

just wanna be happy 



motherfuckers like fancy things 

big houses, 

big cars, 

like movie stars 

gotta have everything 

numb myself to the suffering 



just wanna be happy 

and thankful 

not just 

try to get through 

just wanna be happy, 

thankful 

not just 

try to get through 



should i lie 

should i cheat 

turn on my tv 

tell me what i want, 

what i need 

i lose my faith sometimes 

i lose my faith sometimes, yeah 



so much suffering for 

fancy cars, 

big houses, 

everything 

i lose my faith sometimes 

i lose my faith sometimes, yeah 



just want to be happy 

and thankful 

not just 

try to get through 



just want to be happy 

and thankful 

just want to be happy 

and thankful 

try to get through 



you’re all i need 

lay your burden down 

ease my sadness 

you’re all i need 



i lose my faith sometimes 

i lose faith sometimes 

just trying to get through 

i lose faith sometimes 



you’re all i need 

lay your burden down 

i lose faith sometimes 

you’re all i need 

i’m thankful 

that i feel you 



ease your sadness 

you’re all i need 

lay your burden down 

ease my sadness 

you’re all i need 

lay my burden down 



i laid my burden down.
