One Day Lyrics

One Day lyrics

(*Fabolous humming to the beat*)

It's easy to look at my life and don't
see no pain
I remember takin 3, 4 trains to re cocaine
Standing in the
lobby during sleet, snow, rain
Waiting for fiends with a pint of beef
lomain
Breaking day on the grind, I used to be so drained
But ain't a
Saturday I wasn't up to see Soul Train
Sometimes I ain't see no
gain
cause I was runnin to Ralphies everytime my trees showed stains
I
was lucky I ain't seized or maim
Get shot or stuck up standin at them cee-lo
games
But now shit with these skios changed
I ain't know why the fuck they
used to look at me so strange
Glanced at my neck and didn't see no
chain
Be saying "That's nasty," wouldn't give me no brain
Y'all surprised
F-A-B-O's sane
In my rolla life, I done jumped in and out of 3, 4
lanes
I'm still here

[Chorus]
My momma used to tell me
"Son,
you're gonna make it one day, it'll happen"
Who knew I'd have what it
takes,
to be famous and one day I'd be rappin - no
My papa used to ask me
"Son, are you prepared?
Cause one day it could happen"
I dreamed about
this game,
but who would of believed that one day I'd be trapped in -
no

I just want some peace of mind
Niggas will risk havin cuffs on
their wrists
for this masterpiece on mine
Know that I'm a squeeze until
the top of my piece recline
I can't see myself in back of a Caprice
confined
But on a small island, too far for police to find
With girls who
look 'Rican and Guyanese combined
I gotta make sure my niece is fine
She
get every doll for Christmas, new Jordans at Easter-Time
Some be like "At
least you signed"
But that just make is easy to get pointed out at precinct
lines
All ya'll can see if every piece be dime
And I be gettin Nikes
before they even get released sometime
Youngsters, don't let these videos
geese your mind
It ain't cool to end up deceased for shine
And if you
can't get the whole pot, just take a piece and grind
Hold your head, your
stress will cease in time

[Chorus]

Sometimes I wish I could go
way back when
I could walk thru and ain't nobody know Jay
Jackson
Everything was OK back then
Now everybody playin a cool role and
I know they actin
I gotta go back through my ol' way packin
These wolves
know my jewels is filled with O'Shea Jacksons
I don't care as long as my
dough stay stackin
But these niggas with me be eager to show they Mack
10s
And I'm the one the PO's stay trackin
Plus I got all these ducks
around the ol' way quackin
These hoes may crack grins
but I swear to God
I won't never take O.J's actions
If I would've let this flow stay packed
in
I'd probably be with Nick and 'Rome, spending my whole day shacked
in
For now I just roll on those eight Jacksons
'til Clue and Duro brings
those gray plaques in
Yeah

[Chorus]

One day it'll
happen
That One day I'd be rappin
No
One day it could happen
One
day I'd be trapped in
No
