One Day

Can't do this, can't do that, it got me feeling trapped
Smoking grass and chasing ass, some things I can't get past
Roll the dice, they come up craps, but that don't change the facts
Some come up slow, some come up fast, but I was built to last

One day, I'ma be the one that's fucking up
One day, I'ma be the one that's coming up
One day, everybody will know my name
One day, one day, one day

Yo, 15 years and I'm in the same place
Every day's like Groundhog Day
Same rent, same bills, same clothes
Same rain, same bar, same hoes
Same people, tell them, hit it quick
Same people saying I ain't shit
But they can all fade away
'Cause I'ma come up one day
Live big, no question about it
On an island with Jessica Alba
Everybody's gon' know my name
But fuck the fame, I just wanna spit the flame
I'm a little white dude from Humboldt County
I can see why your vision's cloudy
But I'ma do what I want and still be me
Doing this, one day you'll see

My life only bringing me pain
Up all night and I'm going insane
Breaking the chains, sick of living the same
Sick of being sick and tired, so I'm making a change
Get what I need, raps and a weave
Even as a seed, I would dream, remember me?
Remember all of the things I was meant to be
Remember all that I got to be
Mama said I better live life wisely
Till the day I fall in love with a wifey
Why I got a girl fucked up just like me?
Never do the right thing, always wanna fight me
Gotta get it on the grind and I put it in a rhyme
Live a life of crime, I don't know another kind
I gotta get mine and I get it all the time
One day it'll all be fine

One day, I'ma be the one that's fucking up
One day, I'ma be the one that's coming up
One day, everybody will know my name
One day, one day, one day
One day, I'ma be the one that's fucking up
One day, I'ma be the one that's coming up
One day, everybody will know my name
One day, one day, one day

I know we all wanna come up, right?
See the fly cars as they drive by
And we dream of a life like that
Living in a house on a hill right next to Shaq
Not a care in the world, free as a bird
Chilling all day, just smoking the herb
(One day) It won't be as bad as it seems
(One day) I'm gonna meet the girl of my dreams
Live righteous and I might just light this Humboldt County blunt
And pray for the day that I stop fucking up
I gotta find a way to get up out this slump
I'm getting so much older though
Never stop 'til I say that I told you so
Get the dough, I gotta be invincible
Come up fast, doing the unthinkable
And it's all gonna work out nicely
If I do the right thing like Spike Lee
You don't know what it's like in my Nikes
But you wanna be smoking the weed just like me
Learn from my mistakes, catch a couple breaks
We'll have this sewed up
Celebrate, we gonna get our life straight
Get a fat one, roll it up

One day, I'ma be the one that's fucking up
One day, I'ma be the one that's coming up
One day, everybody will know my name
One day, one day, one day

Can't do this, can't do that, it got me feeling trapped
Smoking grass and chasing ass, some things I can't get past
Roll the dice, they come up craps, but that don't change the facts
Some come up slow, some come up fast, but I was built to last
