[Verse 1]

Know I had trials and tribulations

I'm tryna be liberated from

I got some baggage but I won't let it hold me

I may seem full of regret

But I let God do the rest

I don't deserve this hurt

No matter what my father told me

Riding on the edge

I'll lay it all on my chest

My heart is full even though I come I'm from a broken home

This ain't life it's survival

I been caught in a cycle

But I guess that's life though

[Pre-Chorus]

And that PTSD gets me every time

When the world is getting dark

That's when you gotta shine

[Chorus]

You know I gotta count my blessings

Not everybody get to wake up in the morning

So I count my blessings

I seen my brothers and sisters falling so I get up

Learned my lesson

Thankful for what I got

But I still get tested sometimes

[Verse 2]

Got out these trenches one too many times

I ain't going back making change in my life

I'm been listening to my intuition

No more resisting

Ain't missing my blessings

Protect my peace

I'm vigilant by design

I stand for me

And I'll put that on my life

Don't you see this dedication in my eyes

Know I should let it shine

I ain't made to hide

[Pre-Chorus]

But that PTSD gets me every time

When the world is getting dark

That's when you gotta shine

[Chorus]

You know I gotta count my blessings

Not everybody get to wake up in the morning

So I count my blessings

I seen my brothers and sisters falling so I get up

Learned my lesson

Thankful for what I got

But I still get tested sometimes

You know I gotta count my blessings

Not everybody get to wake up in the morning

So I count my blessings

I seen my brothers and sisters falling so I get up

Learned my lesson

Thankful for what I got

But I still get tested sometimes
