One Day (feat. Akon) - Matisyahu

Your face Your eyes I see the pain he's causing Your scared Your tired It happens way to often And I can't lie I want you to be tough But goodbye to that guy Cause you know I know he fucked up It ain't no time to make up And it's way to late to wake up Should have walked her down that isle And I'm gonna show her a real love now I can't move on I been with him so long Protect his own even when he's still wrong I know he can't love me the way I want I told myself it's time that I be gone It ain't no time to make up And it's way to late to wake up Should have walked me down that isle And i'm gonna feel some real love now

Who'd ever thought that I would see this day Where I would see my ghetto life fade away 'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way And now I look forward to every day (Welcome to my sunny day) Block don't stop, always stayed hot No matter how the seasons got I still remember when they took me away Kept it on lock then I got caught, realized that I had to stop Then I took the time to explore a better way Searched high and low, so close, yet so far to go I just know there's a sunny day Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day) Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away) 'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way) And now I look forward to every day (every day) Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, better day Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, a better day Welcome to my sunny day I was born in the ghetto, raised in the ghetto Saw my first nine millimeter in the ghetto I got my first kiss in the ghetto Playing hide and go seek, with the girls in the ghetto I wrote my first hit in the ghetto Yo, Mona Lisa, can I get a date on Friday-ay-ay? It's hard for to let go life in the ghetto The night they blast my cousin, whoa-whoa I had to find out a way out of my ghetto Picked up the guitar and started singing in the ghetto Haters use to hate in the ghetto Said I never would made it out of the ghetto I guess that's why my cousin sold the yayo Even though Arnie said the sun come out tomorrow But the ghetto stayed dark I never thought I ever see the billboard chart Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day) Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away) 'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way) And now I look forward to every day (every day) Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, a better day Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, a better day Welcome to my sunny day Been a long day On my way to my holy place to pray Give thanks for every blessing given to me I know there's more to see, more to me No more living in misery 'Cause this is how I visioned life to be Searched high and low, so close, yet so far to go I just know, there's a sunny day Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day) Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away) 'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way) And now I look forward to every day (every day) Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, a better day Welcome to my sunny day My sunny day Every day, a better day Welcome to my sunny day
