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 from a broken home
This ain't life, it's survival
I been caught in a cycle
But I guess that's life, though

And that PTSD gets me every time
When the world is getting dark
That's when you gotta shine

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

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

But that PTSD gets me every time
When the world is getting dark
That's when you gotta shine

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
