Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Thanking God for all my setbacks
'Cause He the reason I'm able to get back
This feel like my Sunday morning jetpack
Feel like I sent the prayers up and got blessed back, whoa
Yeah, feel like I sent a prayers up and got blessed back
This feel like my Sunday morning jetpack, yeah
[Verse 2]
This the feeling though that I've been missing some days
This feel like I'm headed to paradise one way
This feel like the family dinners that we used to have on Sunday
With Grandma in the kitchen making rum cake
All this bread she used to do for Thanksgiving, man
This feel like the first time I heard Killa Cam
Pink Timb's in the Lamb, mixing it with Dilla and
Headphones to the ceiling, fam
Bucket hat like Gilligan
[Verse 3]
Lately, I've been talking to ghosts
Didn't learn faith in school but that's what I'm testing the most
You know I still rep you when you gone, though
I gotta picture of us on the front lawn
With me, Grandma and Mom
That night I went off to prom
Wishing you could see that Lysol, dijon and parmesan
Funny thing about it, you always act like you knew
You told me I would feel it would happen before it do
[Verse 4]
And you taught me I'm a product of everything I go through
And you and Grandma went broke so we would never get bruised
You the reason that I ever touched my first Franklin
Fast forward, I'm in Kanye crib with Kirk Franklin
It reminded me of how we used to dress up as a family
And go to Sunday service, and be in church, singing
Ain't been to church in a while
But it ain't just 'bout how you praise him in the building
It's about how you praising and why you out
[Verse 5]
You taught me to remember that when I get setback
Been through the worst times to get the best back
Wishing for a time machine to jet back
To my all-time low self and throw me a jetpack, whoa
And see you again, needless to say
Back when I dated Alisha, Simone
Or any other girl who looked like Lisa Bonet
Who's jealous of me and Jhené
Well, you'd always advice me with being away
You was right, but I had to learn for myself
I guess the time came for me to earn for myself
I hope that this is somewhat a thank you for all your help
Hope the angels take care of you till I see you myself
[Verse 6]
Praise, so many times I praise you
I put up prayers for you
Praise, for all the times that you prayed for me
All the night's you stayed by me
[Verse 7]
All the nights that you cried
And all the day's I coulda died
Because of you, I survived
Because of you, I'm still alive
[Verse 8]
Thanking God for all my setbacks
'Cause He the reason I'm able to get back
This feel like my Sunday morning jetpack
Feel like I sent the prayers up and got blessed back, whoa
Feel like I sent the prayers up and got blessed back
This feel like my Sunday morning jetpack, yeah
