I been in some hard times, I seen a lot of good times
|
But everyday I count my blessings this way 'cause I know that everyday's a different day.
|
My friends can change but his will never change.
|
And I knew there would be some time, when I would second guess my mind.
|
|
So I kept on walking, kept on striving,
|
Kept on singing and guess who showed up.
|
|
As I walked down the street one day, I thought I heard a brother say
|
'Living in bad conditions can make you feel like no one,'
|
As long as I, that's why I always try and do my best to search inside.
|
But I knew there would be a day, when I had to look the other way.
|
|
So I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
|
I just kept looking and guess who showed up.
|
|
I told myself one day to falll on my knees and pray
|
And never listen to noone if they can't be true to you
|
No one should spend precious time living for material love
|
His money, no money no money, can make me happy.
|
Now it looks a lot clearer outside, 'cause I'm using my eyes.
|
|
I close my eyes and... Kept on pushing,
|
I just stopped looking and guess who showed up.

|
My friend won't let you down,
|
He's always been around.
|
That's one thing I know for sure.
|
Even when I'm wrong, he's right at my door.
|
He'll never ignore.
|
|
Yes, I got a lotta things to say, I can't say them in all one day.
|
I'll take no credit for the blessings that He's given to me
|
Without Him I know that Saadiq could never, ever, ever be.
|
When I thought it couldn't get no better, just when I thought it was almost over.
|
|
Oh noooo
|
I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
|
I just kept looking and guess who showed up.
|
|
Oooooh, oooh...
|
|
I close my eyes and kept on pushin'
|
I just kept looking and guess who showed up.
|
I told myself one day, to fall on my knees and pray. [4x]
