[Chorus]

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God


[Verse 1]

I gotta thank god

I remember days when I would pray to escape my day job

Hated everyday, back then I felt more like a slave

I had to face to face myself

There comes a time you can't hide

Underpaid and overlooked

Say fuck it now it's game time

They laugh that I was different but

I laugh cause they the same now

I'm like what they got to say now

Elevated even when I'm sober, yeah

I stay high, I used to pray to be where

I'm at now, that's something to think bout


[Chorus]

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God


[Verse 2]

Yeah

I gotta thank God for times like these, lighting up trees

And staying out the weeds, yeah I been on the low

You know I been, in my mind like I'm on my own island

They telling me I can't touch the sky

I'm telling them lie again

I'm telling them I can move a mountain with this confidence

When I spent countless nights just trying to figure out how to win

I must've failed a million times, I must still try again

Yeah, okay, cannot break me

I been walking through the fire

Like it's all good and gravy

All the hard times raised me

My OG's made me into what I am today

But tonight we going crazy

And lately they ask me how you been

How's the big city, tell me have you settled in

Little do they know at times it's hard to raise my chin

But they don't see the daily struggles

From the outside looking in

And when you uninspired, gotta stick to discipline

This motivation's fleeting man

The feeling really just went away

I stay on my shit cause on a whim, it could all end today

Put the path to the pen, like Lord forgive my

Forgive my sins I did it again


[Chorus]

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God

You can catch me strolling on the wayside

As the sun set, head bumping to the baseline

Getting to it, I don't like to waste time

Times like these gotta thank God
