Day At A Time Lyrics by DSTRCT

Installation 002

2023

[Intro]
(Take it day by day, I take it day by, oh-oh)
Certain shit, I just (Take it day by day, I take it day by)
(Take it day by day, I take it day by, oh-oh)
Can't really explained why it happened or how it happened, it just happened
(Take it day by day, I take it day by)
It's just how I be feelin' lately, you know?
Yeah

[Verse 1]
You know how this life shit get
One minute loose and the next one stiff (Right)
I gotta move where they can't get a glimpse
I been off for a minute, tryna handle the shit
Gotta pray for a bit, get away from this shit
Hard to cut another rap when you can't get a grip, yeah (Nah)
I been feelin' a little anxious (Why?)
Give me a minute to explain the shit I'm just sayin'

[Chorus]
I been in a bind (Word)
Shit runnin' through a nigga mind (Goin' through it)
Prayin', tryna get a sign (God send it)
I do, I do
I just been takin' it a day at a time (Tryna do this shit the right way, you know?)
I just been takin' a day at a time (Do it all over, it's all good)

[Verse 2]
I been studyin' my energy (Yeah)
Ain't tryna let it get ahead of me (Right)
You know this shit escape you, I'm tryna slow it down steadily (Why?)
Shit, I'm tryna become a better me
My niggas tell me it's time to celebrate, I gotta disagree (No)
Yeah, gotta be kiddin' me
I probably would've did it before and look what it did to me
I'm seein' that an opportunity isn't a guarantee (Not a guarantee)
I gotta show 'em I did it before they bury me (Before they bury me)
And I gotta be on the right track (Right)
I done came up short three times and got it right back (Right back)
Probably why I can't sit back (Nah)
Gotta hear it from my pops to tell me, "Damn, you did that" (You did that)
I'm scared to embrace it (Right)
I thank God but I'm scared He'll take it (Why is that?)
And that probably wouldn't make sense to you 'cause
I prayed for it and He gave it to me, I'm just new to it (Why?)
I been tellin' myself, don't get used to it (Don't do it)
Even though I deserve to just splurge it
Stunt with niggas, do it on purpose (What? What?)
I earned it, showin' my ex shorty I'm flourishin but, I can't shake it, yeah (I can't shake it)
Don't wanna feel like I'm bein' complacent, just patient
Nothin' to lose, I'm just sayin' (I'm just sayin')
I ain't tryna be goin' through it again, you know?

[Chorus]
I been in a bind (Why is that?)
Shit runnin' through a nigga mind (What you doin'?)
Prayin', tryna get a sign (Real shit)
I do, I do
I just been takin' it a day at a time (Tryna take it one day at a time, you know?)
I just been takin' a day at a time ([?] myself with this shit, you know?)
I been in a bind (Real shit)
Shit runnin' through a nigga mind (You know?)
Prayin', tryna get a sign (I do)
I do, I do
I just been takin' it a day at a time (One day at a time)
I just been takin' a day at a time (All I have to do is figure that shit out, you know?)

[Outro]
Right, yeah
Keep it movin'
Just how we like it, you know?
Blessings on blessings on blessings
Before I ever even made one
Real shit
You see me gettin' to it
Nah?
I mean you see how we play it, right?
What?
Nah
On God
Just gettin' to it, you know?
I can't let you niggas do that to me
