One day

so… 2022 has been a CRAZY spiritual year, for me. I’ve documented everything along the way. This specific story was from a dream I had a few months ago. It started with going to one of my favorite artists concerts, matisyahu. Literally 2 nights later.. I had a dream. I had a dream that he was singing one day and I was front row and he handed me the microphone and out of no where, I started freestyle rapping. Then, snoop dog pulled me to the back of the stage and started getting my info for a record label 😂😂😂 I don’t sing professionally.. only in my car, by myself. I don’t rap and I’ve never even posted a video really on social media… not my style. I’m shy, but this dream baffled me! Absolutely baffled. Then, I call my brother, tell him how realistic this dream was. 30 minutes later, I go on Facebook and matisyahu pops up on my Facebook 🤯 saying hey! If you want to sing on you with me… upload a video of you singing one day and I’ll choose a winner. What are the odds. I thought to myself how outside of my comfort zone this was, but start writing from my heart ❤️… then I recorded this remix and uploaded it. Although I did not win the contest, I was so fulfilled with the creativity of writing and I totally had fun recording with my daughter. This remix actually became an anthem for my 2022 year. A year.. that I got baptized and my dad died during the process. A year that during his 40 days in the hospital a war broke out… a year that was foreshadowed 7 years ago in a different dream (but that’s a different story for a different entry) for now, I will post my poem… remix… soul poured out on paper for whoever to read and be touched by the words

One day

They say That we are bound

Bound by our own chains

It’s time to break those shackles

And loosen all the reigns

Pull me from this darkness

Help me cope with pain

Im praying to you God,

maybe by a different name

I’m ready for the light

to shine and break on through

Past these clouds of darkness

Stick to me like glue

Cleanse me with this water

Come into my life

Clear these low emotions

Of sadness fear and strife

I’m coming to you God

You’re my Superman,

Time to loose that heavy backpack

That’s drowning me with sand.

Sometimes I lay under the moon

And thank God I'm breathin'

Then I pray, "Don't take me soon

'Cause I am here for a reason."

Sometimes in my tears I drown

But I never let it get me down

So when negativity surrounds

I know some day it'll all turn around because

All my life I've been waitin' for

I've been prayin' for

For the people to say

That we don't wanna fight no more

There'll be no more war

And our children will play

One day, one day one day

One day one day one day

One day, it’s time for a change,

I pray today will be the day

While I stand here on stage

Let’s hype it up y’all

We got nothing to lose

No more trouble,

Safe from rubble,

Resonate with the blues

Now Turn it blue bruh

The Perfect ph

Put out the fire cuz

We’re speakin 7s today

Breathe out my lungs

Ahhhhhhhhhh

That’s how you called him by name

Because today will be the day

That We start livin this way

All my life I've been waitin' for

I've been prayin' for

For the people to say

That we don't wanna fight no more

There'll be no more war

And our children will play

One day one day

One day one day one day

Let’s turn it up (yea)

We can sing and engage

that’s what’s up (yea)

Are you on the same page?

Now Light it up- (ahh)

I’m talking about sage

take a breath,

Now breathe what’s left

Then you’ll call him by name

One day this all will change, treat people the same

Stop with the violence, down with the hate

One day we'll all be free, and proud to be

Under the same sun, singin' songs of freedom like

Why-ohh! (One day, one day) why-oh, oh, oh!

Why-ohh! (One day, one day) why-oh, oh, oh!

I hear that things are looking up,

It’s only getting better,

I’m seeing rainbows in

this cloudy stormy weather

Cause we’re living For a cause,

A way to show more love

A way to keep us high

Keep rising way above

there’s a purpose, y’all

And that’s to keep the peace

Warriors mong’ warriors all

Fighting no enemy

Then watch the problems fall

Drop your ego with me

Turn that mess

InTo a bless

We shout 333
