1 Day Songtext
von Playdough

Life is a favor
One, two, and uh

Just saw the doctor, I′ve got one day left
'Til my lungs say goodnight to their breath
But I welcome the death, the Grim Reaper′s finding me
And man, that's fine with me, 'cause I′ma finally be

So freedom came my way, one day
So I got her digits right away
One day to accomplish a lifetime′s checklist
Things I wanna do before breakfast

I wanna max out my credit at the grocery store
And give it all out for nothing to the broke and poor
I wanna be the answered prayer they was hoping for
And let 'em know that they′re the reason God was broken for

I wanna yell out a few choice words to the cops
And throw a-, in them donut shops
And I ain't even put a dent in my list
I set aside a whole two hours for this


Me and my girl gonna spend an hour to kiss
Apologize to every MC that I dissed
′Cause when I'm gone and highly regarded
Dearly departed, my life just started (yo)
When I′m dead and highly regarded
Dearly departed, my life just started (yo)

I'm 'bout to quit my dead-end job
′Cause I just realized I don′t need the money (I don't need)
I don′t need the stress, don't need to be the best
And man, I sure don′t need to worry (I sure don't, I sure don′t)

I'm 'bout to quit my dead-end job
′Cause I just realized I don′t need the money (no more)
When I'm dead and gone, just play this song
Sit back and play this song

Just play this song (yeah), just play this song (just play it now)
Just play this song (yeah), just play this song (play it, play it)
Just play this song (yeah), just play this song
Just play this song, just play this song (turn it up)

Life gets hard, it′s still beautiful
Joy and the pain, it all seems suitable
Nothin' new under the sun, it′s reusable
Bob Marley, Redemption Song at my funeral


No regrets 'cause I′ve run this race
I'm close enough to the end that I can see God's face
Dry your tears, don′t you cry no more
Don′t you know that this is the day that I've been waiting for?

Because I can′t feel hurt, don't remember no pain
To live is Christ, to die is gain
And when you miss me, sit back and press play
Think this is how I changed the world in one day

You′re gon' miss me, sit back and press play
Think this is how I changed the world in one day
One last request before I leave this place
Tell the whole world about God′s good grace

Two last requests before I leave this place
Somebody smack Nelly in his doggone face (yo)

This is how I changed the world in one day (turn it up now)
I could change the whole wide world in one day (c'mon)
I'ma change the whole world in one day (yeah)
One God, one truth, one love, one way

I said, "This is how I change the world in one day," (we can change this)
This is how you change the world in one day (we′re gon′ change this)
We could change the whole wide world in one day (we can change this)
One God, one truth, one love, one way

I'm ′bout to quit my dead-end job
'Cause I just realized I don′t need the money (I don't need)
I don′t need the stress, don't need to be the best
And man, I sure don't need to worry (I sure don′t, I sure don′t)

I'm ′bout to quit my dead-end job
'Cause I just realized I don′t need the money (yeah, I don't need)
When I′m dead and gone, just play this song
Sit back and play this song

Just play this song (turn it up, yeah), just play this song
Just play this song (play it, play it now), just play this song (c'mon)
Just play this song (it's the truth), just play this song (turn it up)
Just play this song (yeah), just play this song (c′mon)

Just play this song, just play this song (ah)
Just play this song (yeah), just play this song
Just play this song (turn it up, y′all), just play this song
Just play this song, just play this song

Play this song, play this song, play it
Play this song, play this song, play it
Play this song, play this song, play it
Play this song, play this song (oh), I'm ′bout to-

I'm ′bout to quit my dead-end job
'Cause I just realized I don′t need the money (yeah)
I don't need the stress, don't need to be the best
And man, I sure don′t need to worry (I sure don′t, I sure don't, yo)

I′m 'bout to quit my nine-to-five
′Cause I just realized I don't need the money (I don′t need)
When I'm dead and gone, just play this song
Sit back and play this song (yeah)

Just play this song (yeah), just play this song (turn it up, yeah)
Just play this song (yeah), just play this song (let it play now)
Just play this song, just play this song
Just play this song (turn it up, yeah), just play this song (with the stereo)
Just play this so-
