| One day, one day | 
| One day, one day | 
| One day, one day | 
| One day, one day | 
| I’ve been searching for change a lot | 
| My brain is shocked, looking for another way | 
| And I’ve been searching for light in the dark | 
| As light as a spark to spark for me a brighter day | 
| And I’m looking for people to hang with | 
| People to sing with, people to do a melody with | 
| What they say should take a lifetime | 
| Took a couple of seconds to awaken my life | 
| And my whole world changed in one day | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day | 
| And now I’m all in the streets | 
| And I’m marching for peace | 
| 'Cause I know that it’s coming to me someday | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day | 
| And now I’m all in the streets | 
| And I’m marching for peace | 
| 'Cause I know that it’s coming to me someday | 
| Ah, a dopey dude in a dope boy world | 
| A tattered book with the pages unfurled | 
| A branded car with a vintage shell | 
| My treasures are all in heaven so I’m poor as hell | 
| I guess it’s just a juxtaposition and I’m playing my position | 
| And I feel no competition 'cause there’s none | 
| 'Cause I’m like Bobby Brown from New Edition | 
| My prerogative and mission is to use surgical precision like guns (Bam!) | 
| 'Cause my whole world changed in one day | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day | 
| And now I’m all in the streets | 
| And I’m marching for peace | 
| 'Cause I know that it’s coming to me someday | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day | 
| I said, my whole world changed in one day |

| 'Cause I know that it’s coming to me someday | 
| The rap game is flighty like Sara Pallin is | 
| And it’s ignorant like republicans | 
| And sorta shiesty like our government | 
| So they’re about to get chewed out like double mint | 
| So labels come on, slow down | 
| Labels come on, slow down | 
| When you’re already sucked | 
| There ain’t nowhere to go now | 
| So and this gonna be a Twitter line | 
| And I typed these words | 
| And I shed it like a sister wife | 
| With music that closes your mind | 
| With Black Thought, it’s only a Roots not rhymes | 
| With a guy worth a penny but he still gets dimes | 
| When it’s time to sprint forward but we’re still behind | 
| (I feel like I got something to offer) | 
| Let me give you something new to get into | 
| (I feel like I got something to offer) | 
| Like Michael Brown man, every hand in the building | 
| (Hands up!) | 
| I’ve been searching for change a lot |

| 'Cause I know that it’s coming to me someday | 
| And my race caused racist to come stop and frisk me, man | 
| I have as Mississipi, man | 
| And my Jimmy had led the way like with the gypsy band | 
| And the girls was getting back like some whiskey, man | 
| And after all that went down, and I mean all that went down | 
| Life was there was no more going down | 
| I said, this gonna be a Twitter line |
