Simple Blessed

SIMPLE BLESSED

I may not have a lot of friends, some say no one
I may not have a love in my life, a loving wife
and I may not have a lot of money
But I only, 
Only I
Can tell my testimony..
I may not be the best thing
I may not be the riches being
and I may not be a handsome man
But God created me, and He don't make no mess

I'm simply bessed...


I may not drive a brand new 2019 car
I may be not in debited to the bar
Higher that high, credit rating 580
and I may not have a lot of money
But I only, 
Only I
Can tell my testimony..

And God created me, and He don't make no mess
He made me first and not last
I live in a mortgaged house, not under the interstate embankment
Got a job I'm not rich, but Lord knows I'm not poor
Got some food, some clothes, some time to myself
Got some shoes, some laughter, some sadness and I still got my breathe
And in the meantime, God has granted me life on this world and the next

I am simply blessed

and I may not have a lot of money
But I only, 
Only I
Can tell my testimony..
But I only, 
Only I
Can tell my testimony..
I may not be the best thing
I may not be the riches being
and I may not be a handsome man
But God created me, and He don't make no mess

I am simply blessed
