One Message Lyrics


[Verse 1]

I fight for hope, I fight for change
I fight so much you'd think I like the pain
I got the torch, light the flame
And with the fire I spew, I'll ignite your name

Hate where I'm headed in this life of fame
The spotlight and the sun feel quite the same
Keep me out of reach of the sniper's aim
I'm a survivor, look what I became

I guess what I'm sayin' is up in my own lane
Everybody fly but I want my own plane
Runaway thoughts can you feel my train?
All aboard all aboard, no ball and chain
Freedom in the eyes of a young black man

Tellin' my story wherever I can
As real as the blood flows rivers in my vein
I'm feelin' like the realest in the game
Go

[Hook]
Hopefully one day I reach, high enough to find you
You see every day I'mma pray, until I find you
You look down at me and say
That I designed you
With this one message time's running out
So I just need you to go
Go, go, go, go
[Hook]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Yonas' The Proven Theory is a fantastic blend of backpacker consciousness and more commercial beats and sounds. This song is on that album and addresses issues related to religion and success.
