2pac - One Day At Time (Remix) lyrics

rate me

[Verse 1: 2pac]

Sometimes its hard to wake up in the morning

Mind full of demons, I don't wanna hear them anymore

Got me heartbroken,fine, so many babies screaming

Cause they seeing destruction before they a see human being

So they start smoking weed, we'll never get our day

Until we learn to pray, keep our families in shape

Cause they all broke. and why do ghetto birds die

Before we learn to fly, some bodies else's child caught in guns

Smoking weed, can all make a change

So I'm told, but I haven't seen the change unfold,

I keep hoping please, if you prefer to breathe,

Communities in need of people that will lead

Keep your eyes open, I can only say I'll try

Until the day I die,[until the day I die], I promise to be wise

With my heart open, greed, brings only misery

A way to tragedy, so I stay sucker free

Only a few chosen, rise (rise)

My ghetto queen, rise (rise)

Don't be afraid to try (try)

Too many of us died to the door to open wide

My brother be wise, stay focused on the prize

Though everybody dies

We can continue growing,one day at time

[Chorus:]

We can continue growing,one day at time

[Verse 2: 2Pac]

Can't close my eyes cause all I see is terror

I hate the man in the mirror

Cause his reflection makes the pain turn realer

Times of Armageddeon, murder in mass amounts

In this society where only gettin the cash counts

I started out as a beginner

Entered the criminal lifestyle became a sinner

I make my money and vacate, evade prison

Went from the chosen one to outcast, unforgiven

And all the Hennessy and weed can't hide, the pain I feel inside

You know, it's like I'm livin just to die

I fall on my knees and beg for mercy, not knowin if I'm worthy

Livin life thinkin no man can hurt me

[Chorus: x3]

We can continue growing,one day at time
