The Day Lyrics by Pete Philly

One

2011

[Verse 1]
If there’s anything to learn from watching a city burn
It’s that we yearn as we await our turn
But who’s to say that when that day will come
That we ain't the ones that they’re gon' run from?
Every time we hear, exhaling all the fear
As they cheer over meaningless victories
Ignoring all the needs, never standing still
I'm a redefine some things so I can keep on building

[Chorus]
I know we gon' see the day, it's gonna be okay
So I'll let go of all my woes and troubles for the day
I know we gon' see the day
I am not the only one
I know we gon' see the day, it's gonna be okay
So I'll let go of all my woes and troubles for the day
I know we gon' see the day
I am not the only one

[Verse 2]
There are many times when I sit back and contemplate
Twisting, switching till that introverted state
We knew my view on things, time won't stand still
Mix it all to find some time to kill
If it's really all that easy to deceive you or me
Then tell me why can't we
See there's a better way?
I still travel in my mind and I can see the day

[Chorus]
I know we gon' see the day, it's gonna be okay
So I'll let go of all my woes and troubles for the day
I know we gon' see the day
I am not the only one

[Bridge]
Yeah
Put my name on it
I'ma put my soul on it
I'ma put my heart in it
I'ma put my life on it
I'ma put my heart in it
I'ma put my name on it
I'ma put my soul in it

[Chorus]
I know we gon' see the day, it's gonna be okay
So I'll let go
Yes, I know we gon' see the day
We gon' see the day
We gon' see the day
We gon' see the day
We gon' see the day
