Sometimes I lay under the moon
And thank God I’m breathin’
Then I pray don’t take me soon
‘Cause I am here for a reason
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 been waitin’ for
I been prayin’ for, for the people to say
That we don’t want to fight no more
They’ll be no more wars and our children will play
One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day
It’s not about win or lose
‘Cause we all lose when they feed
On the souls of the innocent, blood-drenched pavement
Keep on movin’ though the waters stay ragin’
And in this maze you can lose your way
It might drive you crazy, but don’t let it phase you, no way
No way
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 been waitin’ for
I been prayin’ for, for the people to say
That we don’t want to fight no more
They’ll be no more wars and our children will play
One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day
One day this all will change, treat people the same
Stop with the violence, down with the hate
One day we’ll all be free and proud to be
Under the same sun singing songs of freedom like
One day, one day, oh
One day, one day
All my life I been waitin’ for I been prayin’ for, for the people to say
That we don’t want to fight no more
They’ll be no more wars and our children will play
One day, one day, one day
One day, one day, one day
