Nikki McKnight - One Thing lyrics

One thing i hate for my time to be wasted That’s why i stopped devoting my time without payment Cuz ni**as seem to think you got time to be playing Then you gotta show em you’re not to be played with It’s people i should probably walk away from History i take into consideration But when it’s testing my patience... to a point where i could hardly take it Do i sacrifice my peace to try and save it Thoughts running rampant through my brain and i’m usually perspicacious When i’m dishing out advice but never take it... that’s how it goes This circle of life is making me dizzy And i’m thinking i see clearly when i pour a cup of henny, that’s tricky How much can the mind take Without brakes full speed on life’s highway I told shorty fo’ she pulled up out the driveway If you take me out, my kinda real’s an acquired taste I love hard, but get scared when i’m loved hard Too much attention and that’s when i’m throwing up guards Maybe it’s because we all granted one heart The one who ripped up mine left me just scarred, just a thought I’m always up front with who i be meeting Don’t think it gets any realer than how i’ma keep it You can choose to love it, but if you decide to leave it I’ll just wish you well in what it is in life you’re seeking (and mean it) Spread your wings baby. that's the only way to fly I ain't gon hold you back, never that One thing i love is peace of mind Keeping good vibes and have peaceful times Every time i look at a clock and see the time It be reminding me how it could never ever be rewinded I told myself that i would always make the best of it Cherish it and never think less of it I am such a blessed woman, i know that the best coming I know with every challenge, i’m just prepping myself for it Promise not to dwell on it, i’m looking forward to that there moment where i tell poon I found success because i kept going Kept pouring into him, i will be there for him Kept sowing seeds to make sure that he kept growing If he came to me unsure, then he left knowing Saw him try his hardest, next option was to just show him... thoughts How many obstacles i’ve stepped over Ironically equals the hearts that i done let go of The song says that at your best you are loved But until you love self that’ll never be enough I spent some time reflecting on how i’ve often settled Subconsciously not feeling that i had deserved better Lost a couple good ones all because my nerves set up To not believe in anything that these girls tell ya And i would find any excuse to make it true It was always me and never you I ain't perfect. but until i learn the value of myself I could never know what your worth is You know you're worth it
