[Chorus] 
Yeah, I'm thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Gotta say it's really been a while 
But now I got back that smile (Smile) 
I'm so thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Now you see me shine from a mile 
Finally got back that smile (Smile) 
[Verse 1] 
Every day, Groundhog Day 
Goin' through motions felt so fake 
Not myself, not my best 
Felt like I failed the test 
[Pre-Chorus] 
But every tear has been a lesson 
Rejection can be God's protection 
Long hard road to get that redemption 
But no shortcuts to a blessin' 
[Chorus] 
Yeah, I'm thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Gotta say it's really been a while 
But now I got back that smile (Smile) 
I'm so thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Now you see me shine from a mile 
Finally got back that smile (Smile) 
[Verse 2] 
I'm 2.0, remodeled 
Used to be dull, now I sparkle 
Had a piece of humble pie 
That ego check saved my life 
[Pre-Chorus] 
Now I got a smile like Lionel Richie 
Big and bright, need shades just to see me 
Tryna stay alive just like I'm the Bee Gees (Oh, woah) 
A Mona Lisa masterpiece (Now I'm) 
[Chorus] 
Yeah, I'm thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Gotta say it's really been a while 
But now I got back that smile (C'mon, smile, woo) 
I'm so thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful (So grateful) 
Now you see me shine from a mile 
Finally got back that smile (Smile, oh, oh) 
[Bridge] 
I'm so thankful 
'Cause I finally, 'cause I finally 
I'm so grateful 
'Cause I finally, 'cause I finally (Oh) 
[Chorus] 
Yeah, I'm thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Gotta say it's really been a while 
But now I got back that smile (Woo, smile) 
I'm so thankful 
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful 
Now you see me shine from a mile 
Finally got back that smile (Smile, oh, oh)
