One Day (Director's Cut Bonus Track)

(album: One Day - 2019)

This is gonna be the illest record that I ever did, God knows
Yeah, God knows
I have been through everything with battle scars as evidence, I got those
I got those
Ever since a snot-nosed kid, had a road full of potholes
People tried to criticize how I rose
But they could never walk a mile in my clothes

Am I close to being there?
Where one day I'll make it, I swear, yeah
One day
One day
One day
One day

I got all this anger and this fury that I bury deep inside me
It's beside me
I feel like a stranger here, an alien, they never see what I see
What I see
Maybe if I close my eyes and disappear into what I'm writing
Then I can isolate into hiding
I don't know what this is that I'm fighting

Can I bring myself out there?
Where one day I'll run away from here, yeah
One day
One day
One day
One day

Prayers to the holy ghost, I think I said 'em all
Rap heroes posters up on my bedroom wall
Just a kid and I already got a set of balls
Get up, fall, fall, get up, fall, shit I'm getting tall
Dawg, if you wanna push your way in then you better brawl
If you ain't got it in your heart, then don't get involved
When the lows in this road are so crushing
Come a long way to find out you're owed nothing
No love in this game here for the dreamers
All you seen was backstabbers and the mean mugs
You forgot the plot, this is not what the dream was
Said you used to love her but you took her to the cleaners
So maybe this will set up your ends
Now ask yourself, can you get up again?
Heavy is a broken heart, that's what some say
And all I really got left now is this one day

When the heroes in the posters you had on your wall are your peers now
You're here now
But all those ghosts that you were tryna run away from, they appear, wow
It's weird how
Things are never really what they seem
When your whole life is nothing but a dream
You believed and achieved 'cause you risked everything
But it seems that you're running out of steam

Am I close to being there?
Where one day I'll make it, I swear, yeah
One day
One day
One day
One day
