Matisyahu – One Day
Sometimes I lay under the moon
And thank God I’m breathing.
Then I pray: don’t take me soon,
‘Cause I am here for a reason.
Sometimes in my tears I drown.
But I never let it get me down.
So when negativity surrounds,
I know some day it’ll all turn around because…
All my life I’ve been waiting for…
I’ve been praying for…
For the people to say
That we don’t wanna fight no more,
There will be no more wars,
And our children will play
One day. [6x]
It’s not about win or lose,
‘Cause we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent.
Blood-drenched pavement.
Keep on moving though the waters stay raging.
In this maze you can lose your way.
It might drive you crazy but don’t let it faze you, no way!
Sometimes in my tears I drown (I drown),
But I never let it get me down (get me down).
So, when negativity surrounds,
I know some day it’ll all turn around because…
All my life I’ve been waiting for…
I’ve been praying for…
For the people to say
That we don’t wanna fight no more,
There will be no more wars,
And our children will play
One day. [6x]
One day this all will change. Treat people the same.
Stop with the violence! Down with the hate!
One day we’ll all be free, and proud to be
Under the same sun singing songs of freedom, like
One day. [4x]
All my life I’ve been waiting for…
I’ve been praying for…
For the people to say
That we don’t wanna fight no more,
There will be no more wars,
And our children will play
One day. [6x]
When you have no problems putting the verses in the right order, you will have much fewer problems with memorizing the lyrics.
To the right, you can try singing the song. It’s a good idea to listen to yourself so that you could hear your own mistakes and correct them.
