One Time

[Intro]
One time for turning the page to a new chapter
One time for my young Banditos
Why worry about being cool when you could be ice cold?
One time for overthinking just a little too much
And one time for everybody adding their own flavor into it
One time for everyone who isn't perfect
Let these be the letters from my soul

[Verse 1: JZAC]
One time right now
Let me thank God that I'm alive right now
This for anyone who ever died right now
When they fought a good fight and didn't lie right down
One time for the people at they 9-to-5s
Keep grindin', I know you gettin' overlooked
One time for the kid who ain't partyin'
'Cause he in the library with an open book
One time for the girl with the self respect
You ain't livin' through a magazine
You ain't never give it up to no random guy
You real, you ain't feedin' into fantasies
One time for the kids who be fightin' cancer
I don't know if I can fathom that
You too damn young to be seein' the light
God damn, man, I can't even imagine that

[Interlude]
When you wake up in the morning
Instead of thinking 'bout things that are not right
Think about the things that are good
How small a blessin' may seem, it's a blessin'

[Verse 2: JZAC]
One time right now
Doin' everything to be the guy right now
I ain't even gonna go and lie right now
'Cause I'm jealous of the people in the limelight now
One time for the troops that be overseas
Much love to you, God bless
See, we just a bunch of people livin' in an evil
World tryna get up out of God's mess
One time for the man with the helpin' hand
Reachin' out when you need it most
See, we worry so much about our own shit
We forgettin' that we all in the same boat
One time for the pain deep within
Don't ever let it rule your life
See, I learn from mistakes that I made before
Don't ever let 'em fool you twice

[Outro]
Love people, even if they don't love you
Love them, I mean just love them
Don't let 'em use you, don't let 'em abuse you
But just love them
And my bible tells me that love covers a multitude of sins
So I'm sort of countin' on that
