One Lyrics by Alyssa Marie

No Parades on Easy Street

2014

[Hook]
Just give me one, that's fine
You'll see what I become, tell 'em one last time (Give me one)
I put blood, sweat, tears and focus
I put time in these years unnoticed
All I need is just one and I'll be okay
Look at where I'm coming from, but I'll find my own way
Just give me somewhere to begin and the rest will come
I know that all I ever needed was one
[Verse 1]
Just give me one more song to tell the world that I'm ready make my entrance
Make amends to serve these days in a sentence of labored penance
For the wasted days I've spent placed on vacant bench
On the road to fate and redemption but couldn't fake independence
I paid a debt of attention with two cents and the change that I mentioned
But never made expenses I left unpaid
I was settling, used, confused nerves and adrenaline purpose and meddling
But the difference surfaced while peddling
Up a hill that I rather be coasting down
While the rest of them go around it I found that it's sweeter knowing these grounds
That I'm holding, I've trekked alone that I've earned it
That I deserve what I have that I never road someone's back when my soul was hurting
It's that that molds the person I've become
The reason that I could never hold these verses on my tongue
If you're waiting for the day I say my work in this is done
You can hold your breath until it's bursting out your lungs
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Just give me one more verse, 16 bars to explain the story
From pain to the glory days in the name of who came before me
Carry on the tradition, live for the sake of poorly
Executed visions, pleading my case til I face the jury
And if at the end the judge is screaming guilty
I'll still be fine, I'll do the time for it knowing the people feel me
No appeal and no excuses..innocence is subjective and allusive
Know my place please don't correct me if I lose it
Cause it's never set it stone..
'Til the metronome stops
When that last letters written and my beds a chrome box
(no) it's not over til the record goes quiet
When the stethoscope is silent on my chest so don't watch
If you need the resolution I'm forever refusing
To cross any finish line til I find a better conclusion
But know second I do…set another goal to reach
Cause contentment'll only stunt the growth I seek
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Just give me one more word before my lips are wired shut
If you could put a price on time you still could never buy enough
So I'll settle for a syllable and hope that echo stings
If I was given one word I'd say peace and let it ring
