Joell Ortiz - One Day lyrics
Was In my room turning up my radio, turning up my radio I was staying up real late, early a.m. flow Tissue paper top of cassette, just tryna tape the show Hope they play some new freestyles, I need some crazy flows Last dude they played just su*ked, straight felacccio How they even play that song, he had to pay them yo... One day they gon' play my song, watch how cray it go I been writing rhymes so long, I can't wait to blow I don't wanna sell this sh*t, it's getting wack to me Tired of having panic attacks, when they in back of me Praying they don't pull me over, throw the Gat to me Right after they pop that trunk and find a factory The other night my man got knocked, he said they asked for me Yesterday Leroy got shot, these ni**as after me Gotta make this rap sh*t pop, or it's a wrap for me I'm Meeting this producer tomorrow, he got some tracks for me I hope his beats good I hope his studio ain't in the wrong hood Cause One Day I hope his beats good I hope his studio ain't in the wrong hood Cause One Day I Dedicate this verse to Stretch Armstrong, a disc jockey that Let me on his radio show, just cause I could rap A teenager on Hot 97, wit the stocking cap And only carfare in my jeans, but my pockets fat Due to folded notebook paper, I would write a lot Document my life on them lines let the pilot jot Down whatever came to my mind, like that time I got Out that House Party in time, before they fired shots Put my man inside of that box or the night I dropped Kemiya off in front of her crib, they killed Kemiya pops A hour later right on that block, in front the tire shop The first time I told that story, was right now I got So much more to tell to my pen, I think it's wild that I Been through so much and all that I fear... A case of writers block I came a mighty long way... Rhyming in the hallway... Feels like just yesterday, I would say... I hope his beats good I hope his studio ain't in the wrong hood Cause One Day I hope his beats good I hope his studio ain't in the wrong hood Cause One Day
