WATCHIN THE FLOWERS GROW
Chaddrick Allen / Mark Nesler

I was beggin’ every man for a dollar
Trying to get high every day
I sold my soul to the devil
I didn’t know any other way
Ain’t no doubt about it
I was headed to hell for sure
Till I finally got mad and said to myself
I can’t do this shit no more

Yeah everything I lost I got back
I’m proud to say I’m on the right track
I see a lot of beautiful things now that I’m taking it slow and if I stay Off the pipe gonna be alright
Cause I found me a way to fight this fight
By the grace of God I finally let it all go
Just watching the flowers grow

People are always wondering
Why I don’t carry a gun
But walking around with a bible
In my hand I don’t need one
Yeah I’m eternally grateful
For every single day
And now all I wanna do is pay it back
To my brothers along the way

Yeah everything I lost I got back
I’m proud to say I’m on the right track
I see a lot of beautiful things now that I’m taking it slow and if I stay Off the pipe gonna be alright
Cause I found me a way to fight this fight
By the grace of God I finally let it all go
Just watching the flowers grow

Wish grandma was here to see the man I’ve come to be but
I Can’t help but feel like she’s smiling down on me

Yeah everything I lost I got back
I’m proud to say I’m on the right track
I see a lot of beautiful things now that I’m taking it slow and if I stay Off the pipe gonna be alright
Cause I found me a way to fight this fight
By the grace of God I finally let it all go
Just watching the flowers grow

Yeah I’m counting my blessings
Just watching the flowers grow
