ONE HIT

Verse 1:

Did I ever think that I would get to this point?
Spit fluid into ears let the lyrics annoint
Not really but brain remains blessed
Fearlessly rolled through obstacles two ways I’m intrepid
Set goals for myself that I had to acknowledge
And one of those goals was that I had to graduate from college
Now I got a piece of paper claiming that I got knowledge
But what does that mean if that’s not what you really wanted
A waste of money or a good plan B
I don’t know but in time we shall see
Now I’m working in the field that I graduated from
But I’d rather a place to place my dedication
End of the day I place my day in a song
Attempt to decompress any type of depression
This is what I think about from dusk ‘til dawn
And if you read between the lines then this is right where I belong

Chorus (2x):

(Female vocalist)

Don’t wanna be a one hit wonder
So I wonder
Because I don’t wanna be a goner
Will I be here next year?

Verse 2:

Damn what a homie gotta do?
He just wanna stick around he don’t wanna bid adieux
So he turns to Facebook and tries to add you
In hopes you’ll follow his words, Book of Matthew
His new Testament that you’re listenin’ to
Two ways unbelievable, Kris Kringle
‘Cause kid you either believe or you don’t
Or you just can’t believe the shit that he wrote
But he still feels neglected
He feels they won’t link because the lack of necklace they on some neck shit
I said some neck shit ‘cause on my next shit
I want them to turn their heads and say you’re next kid
To be live on stage with no edit
Born to a new world of criticism on your exit
Nervous feels the pressure but he ready for it
Enticed by bright lights and night life can’t ignore it

Chorus (2x):

(Female vocalist)

Don’t wanna be a one hit wonder
So I wonder
Because I don’t wanna be a goner
Will I be here next year?

Verse 3:

I’m on stage and people sing my song back at me
Just the thought of that would make my ass happy
But it breeds jealousy and people wanna attack me
The only cuffs I wanna deal with are the ones on my khakis
I hope this feeling never goes away
But the fact of the matter is that it could leave today
Makes you wonder after one hit how someone could plummet
Shit I am just being honest
They did it with consistency
Meaning I gotta do it more consistently
Number one on Billboard maximum exposure
Still their house get taken over by foreclosure
Handle your business bring music to the masses
Spotlight off the tint of your glasses
Follow your dreams is what I have to say
Nothing set in stone so I pray everyday

Chorus (2x):

(Female vocalist)

Don’t wanna be a one hit wonder
So I wonder
Because I don’t wanna be a goner
Will I be here next year?
