Eminem - One Day At A Time (Em's Version) lyrics

(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 weed, 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 weed, 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 s**er 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 ain't 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 ain't 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 f** I remain s**er 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.... (Outlawz) 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 j**elry, 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 can't 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 a** cap The rappers in the game ain't 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 k**ers, 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!
