Rare Earth - Thank You lyrics
Chorus (Sample)
 Thank you for being a friend
 Travel down a road and back again
 Your heart is true
 You're a pal and a confidant
 So many people to thank
 Where should I start?
 Those that passed away with a piece of my heart
 Jason Johnson, Kalonee and Proof
 You was there one day
 Next day you went poof
 And I wonder about Reyna May
 I wish I could take Jay 211 pain away
 That night was a heinous day
 And I still feel guilt
 I just can't explain a way
 So many times I've lost faith in God
 But maybe heartbreak is just part of the job
 So I wanted to rap
 And mamma said "son, you can do anything you dream"
 The journey begun
 And even as I write this
 Know angels hands guide it
 Told niggas before
 God ghost write it.
 Bird made my first tracks
 Wino and Battlecat
 LA Hip Hop where I ciphered and battle rapped
 Domino Theory put your boy on his first wax
 Mike Nardone played the first tracks
 Bob and BJ you might have been snakes
 But I'm grateful for the chance
 That put me in the race
 So shout out to Patchwerks
 My first team
 My first article came in URB Magazine
 Then The Wake up Show
 Where I could make up flow
 Not knowing that I cake up dough
 Chorus (Sample)
 And if you threw a party
 You invited everyone you knew
 You would see the biggest gift would be from me
 And the card attached would say
 Thank you for being a friend
 Verse 2
 Thank you Wendy Day for being hip-hops angel
 Thanks to Priority for giving me an angle
 Casual T and Tim Reid for signing me
 Dr. Dre and Rick Ruben for reminding me
 I'm a motha fuckin' star
 Not defined by a plaque or a muthafuckin car
 So when the label situation went sour
 There was people at the label still kept me empowered
 Ray-Ray, Roberta Magrini, and Chase
 Darius, blurry names but I remember the face
 Julio Trejo, Art did the graphics
 Jag Bomb, the street team that kept me in traffic
 Angela, my first representation
 Nyanza Shaw you rode through every complication
 If it wasn't for you, the boy would be through
 Up Above Records, Rhettmatic and Key Cool
 CL and Scrap, Mike City and Pinky
 Deidre and Samm, Camika Ray and Mimi
 Cheo, B Plus, Soren Baker
 Coolio for touring the 50 States bruh
 Every producer and artist on Soul on IceRare Earth - Thank You - http://motolyrics.com/rare-earth/thank-you-lyrics.html
 Flip stayin up late nights tryin to make it right
 Fritty for always believing in me
 Cuz you all saw what it wasn't easy to see, so
 Chorus (Sample)
 Thank you for being a friend
 Travel down a road and back again
 Your heart is true
 You're a pal and a confidant
 Verse 3
 Karen Kwak let me intern at Motown
 Lionel Brazil said "that boy got the flow down"
 Lauren is my rock
 Kid Capri and Doo Wop
 Tung Hah, Abby one and E-Roc
 Teedra gave me Ras and Taj
 When me and Blue clicked up niggas had a major prob
 Q kept me crispy, Case kept me tipsy
 Dawn and Jas Kass always been down with me
 Asti Management could never forget Kristi
 Hustle for a nigga when the odds was risky
 Verb and Nino Bless
 Allegra and Medina held me down when I fled the west
 Da Shiek, Cool Nuts, and Mr. Lepht
 Scott O'Malley from Guerilla Press
 ReUp is still 6, Wolf, 211, and E
 Action, Proof and N-A-M-E
 All my real homies in the industry
 Digital Underground to BCC
 Through Jay Z, I met my nigga Wais
 J Runnah, Dark Half, Kay Kay and Bee Hi
 Gave me game to help a nigga man up
 Marcy, Crown Heights, Brooklyn stand up! 
 All hip-hop mags
 Every hip-hop site
 Every hip-hop show I ever spit on a mic
 Everybody who wrote both times locked up
 Sam from U.K., and Flow my AZ nigga
 Kris Advent who made me twitter
 Asia Rain cuz she a real go getta
 Incredible flow spitta
 Chino XL, the homie XL, Stu, and DL
 Eric Cubeecheee, David Banner, and Hex
 Nancy Byron and Aaron G. West
 All the club promoters Reach, Alex, Jed
 Shane, Sylvain, Jon Moore broke bread
 Horsemen lyrically burnin niggas cornea
 Golden state and my Annie Eternia
 TIP and Dow Jones
 40 Glocc and Lil Shawn it's on now homes
 Every producer who ever sent a beat
 Thanks to every fan who told the world "don't sleep"
 Xzibit, my best friend no matter when we beef
 Domingo, my brother this nigga hustle a beast
 And with that, imma fall back and creep
 Like Eric B and Rakim what happened to peace
 Chorus (Sample)
 And if you threw a party
 You invited everyone you knew
 You would see the biggest gift would be from me
 And the card attached would say
 Thank you for being a friend
