prolyphic and reanimator - one day at a time lyrics

we got one love
we got one day
one time
one time

[verse 1]
out from under this rock that you stone me with
it don’t mean sh-t
whatever stone you skip another home is hit
to close to call it something i love
it’s something i’m not quite sure of
i learned to deal and keep the ace inside my sleeve and shrug my shoulders
playing dumb making it fun the game’s already won
i’m just trying to hold onto what’s left before it’s done
i’ve got no god to take it out on, i’m out on my own
no watch or cellphone, my hoodies reek of weed smoke and not cologne
i’m looking like a skeleton, i’ve shed so many skins
and now i rock t-shirts from places i’ve never been
this one way’s a dead end, i’m to far to turn back the hands of time that pantomime
i’ve learned to adapt
jacks thinking outside the box now
with all these rocks i’ve found
there in my pockets
to keep me grounded and outta the clouds from pipe dreamers who just get smoked like john lenin and dr. king
chased the tails and dream coats and half way i stopped to think
and stopped believing
hidden reasons to keep breathing then get out
i p-ssed a day without saying hi
just keep my head down
it’s the same sob story over coffee starts to bore me
life’s not short, you’re too busy talking about whats wrong with me
or the system, or the world, or your parents i keep my distance
taking out my days one by one like they was victims
and i’ll never win this battle, but i’ll always dress for the war
and i’ll throw down my weapon whenever i question my cause

[hook]

i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, one more, one more

[verse 2]
better late than never set to wake i wait for one
these days are getting old maybe because the night is young
i bite my tongue and breath this dead air exhale to cold stares
a walkman and headphones, forget home
where do i go from here
yellow brick roads are blocked
becoming walls we stick up
and in between’s the dreams we go tired of and get rid off
but i’m a man of few words
and plenty of change from penny’s saved
my two cents break your dollars
i’ll p-ss the buck anyway
we spend money and waste time
expecting something back
but what i saved for wishing wells
slipped through cracks and fell through sewer caps
it’s nothing new, i’ve gotten used to it
and choose to laugh
it’s either too good to be true
with setbacks, it’ll never last
i settle for less than what it’s worth, you always sell for more
so fear my cold hands that never rub lamps or sell doors
i’ve felt loss but i find my way around
used to show my hands now i keep the cards i play with face down
a grey cloud nine follows behind my footsteps
what you see is as good as it gets
i keep this hood over my head
working for rain checks and paying dues and debts
and a who slept
count my blessings in disguise but can’t recognized them yet but
subtle change i run in place and come to face
met my love at first sight and lost her with the double take
i keep my head above the waist
my soul is hard to sell
most difficult work as an artist is to make something out of yourself

[hook]

i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, one more step and one more breath
i take, i take, one day at a time
word up

(scratching the pharcyde’s runnin’ to fade out)
