Tupac- One Day At A Time (ft.Eminem)

by.pLuMeS

2pac:

Sometimes its hard to wake up in the morning

Mind full of demons, I don't wanna hear them anymore

Got me heartbroken,fine, so many babies screaming

Cause they seeing destruction before they a see human being

So they start smoking ****, we'll never get our day

Until we learn to pray, keep our families in shape

Cause they all broke. and why do ghetto birds die

Before we learn to fly, some bodies else's child caught in guns

Smoking ****, can all make a change

So I'm told, but I haven't seen the change unfold,

I keep hoping please, if you prefer to breathe,

Communities in need of people that will lead

Keep your eyes open now, can only say I'll try

Until the day I die, I promise to be wise

With my heart open free, brings only misery

A way to tragedy, so I stay sucker free

Only a few chosen, rise (rise)

My ghetto queen, rise (rise)

Don't be afraid to try (try)

Too many of us died to the door to open wide

My brother be wise, stay focused on the prize

Though everybody dies

We can...

Eminem:

Only learn to take, our anger and our hate

Control our mental state, settle down, and just set it straight

Maybe we can learn to take a second to pump the brakes

For we said it, regret it later, and let it escalate

Cause by then its too just late, theres so much we can take

Theres only so much someone can swallow and tolerate

To the point that he just breaks, snaps and thats all it takes

You'd think that we was learning from other rappers mistakes

But we aint

Its plain to go against, with every artists, comes the image he portrays

And a picture that he paints

But in the midst of all this anger and this angst

Never once did you hear me say I'm a gangster and I aint hear no complaints

But I know, that I will always continue to grow,

As long as I lead and never follow no one else's shadow

There will never be another me

And that I can guarantee

Thats why the **** I remain sucker free to this day

The game will never be the same

No matter how much fame or success they attain

There will never be another me

And no matter what they do

There will never be another you

You can search but you'll never find

You can try to rewind time

But in your hearts and your minds

We will never die

We are forever alive

And we continue growing....

One day at a time

Don't be caught in the publicity and caught in the hype

Rappers are regular people minus money and light

Searching for fortune and fame, and super stardom

All the jewelry, all the cars, whose crew is the hardest.

Now the hip-hop police, the villains is watching

And kids think beef is the only option

Outlaws born filthy, guilty as charged

My memories of him die, but makaveli lives on

You think the industry is fun

And no pity with guns

And when your money is up

Thats when your enemies come

So if he died and came back

Would he try to save rap?

We needing a change, the drama remains

I spent my whole life, fighting myself

That I cant win so I'm inviting some help

and every now and then I take rights from left

Im still just like a kid, looking for stripes on my belt

And that there is a fight in itself

So I just pray and hope god

Take a like to myself

No matter how much I try (stay alive)

I'm gunna die mad, still standing there in love with my pride

Heard frivolous beats, we past that

I'm trying to keep some income coming in

And collect on my ass cap

The rappers in the game aint changed

And I finally realized that we not in the same game

The hating will never end, so I guess I'll deal wit it

Them 4-5 with cop killers, just some steel wit it

The streets is military, you gotta be a soldier

Gotta stay leery and keep your eyes on the rollers

As they do what they gotta do to shackle and hold us

So we gotta do what we gotta do to keep rolling

One way at a time, keep the faith in your mind

and we continue growin...

2Pac:

...One day at a time. Damn!
