Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh
Ah yeah, uh-huh, ah
Now first of all
I wanna thank my God, my Heavenly Father, mmm
You give me life, health and strength, uh
The talent to do all of this
And I got two mamas and a daddy
And I thank 'em for the things that they taught me
Sometimes the road's been very rocky
But look where it's brought me, oh, oh-oh, oh
I gotta thank my children for being so understanding 'cause
They know my job is so demanding
And I'm a family that helped along the way, the way
Through all the years and the tears
I got friends who have been by my side, yeah
And I would like to thank you for being in my life
(I wanna thank you) I wanna thank you for all your love and support
(Oh yeah) Because without your help
None of this would ever be, no
(Really wanna thank you, I do, I do wanna thank you)
Uh, once upon a time, not long ago
I was with Bad Boy, didn't think I'd blow
Three albums and a Grammy and I made the switch
Gotta thank Puff 'cause he made me rich
But money come, money go
Signed a new deal at Capitol
Put out The First Lady, shit was all gravy
Shout out to Shaq, thank you for paying me, baby
I had a son, took a minute
Decided to go independent
E1, it was fun
I got me two more Grammy noms
I'm the bomb
Like tick, tick, hey, what? Uh, check it out, come on, Scooter
Shout out to my faithfuls, I'm so grateful
'Cause you always hold me down
When the people be running they mouth
Don't know what they talking about
Y'all be shutting 'em down, uh
Now here it is, 2014
