Lyrics: One day ft. Akon

intro:
akon, matisyahu

verse 1 (akon):
see everybody that's existing got a mind of their own
we're all kings and queens with a throne of our own
tryna raise a family in another big home
we gotta learn to stick together
hate to be here alone

hook (akon):
cuz the world is a place that will eat you alive in one day
said the world is a place that you cant survive without faith

chorus (matisyahu):
sometimes in my tears i drown
but i never let it get me down
so when negativity surrounds
i know someday 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 dont wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play

one daaaaaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaaaay x2

verse 2 (matisyahu)
its not about win or lose
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 (your way)
it might drive you crazy but dont let it faze you no way (no way)

hook (akon):
gotta hold on living life day by day
gotta hold on put your focus on that one day

chorus (matisyahu):
all my life ive been waiting for
ive been praying for
for the people to say
that we dont wanna fight no more
theyll be no more wars and our children will play
one daaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaaaay x2

bridge (matisyahu):
one day this all will change
treat people the same
stop with the violence down with the hate
one day well all be free
and proud to be
under the same sun singing songs of freedom

hook (akon):
gotta hold onnn livin life day by day
gotta hold onnn put your focus on that one day

chorus (matisyahu):
all my life ive been waiting for ive been praying for
for the people to say
that we dont wanna fight no more
theyll be no more wars and our children will play
one daaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaaay
one daaaaaaaaaay x2
