Lyrics to One More Time
Down
Down, down, down, down
I won't let you down, down, down, down, down, down
I wish I could hear your voice one more time
Grandma Daisy, what you did for us
I won't let you down, down
Will always be on our minds (Down)
You see, you was not just an eductor
Let you down
You taught us how to live and reach for our goals without the pressure
Of being without hope
Oh
Wish I could hear your voice one more time
(Wish I could hear you, yeah)
Wish I could hug on you one more time
(One more time)
I wish God could open Heaven gates so I could see your face one more time
'Cause I'm lost without you, can you give me a sign?
Miss them old days in East Atlanta
When I used to see my grandma
Comin' home to soul food and Price is Right on up on the channel
Miss the wisdom you was givin', miss the kisses you would give me
And for all them times I didn't answer your calls, forgive me
Prayed for me every single night, I wasn't in the city
'Cause you know I got demons 'round me and people out to get me
All the late nights I cried, knowin' I won't see your smile
I'm missin' you
Wish I could hear your voice one more time
(One more time)
Wish I could hug on you one more time
(Hug you one more time)
I wish God could open Heaven gates (One more time) so I could see your face one more time (One last time)
'Cause I'm lost without you, can you give me a sign?
Yeah
Man, I miss my dawgs in the pound
And man, I miss my homies they done put up in the ground
Gotta keep the real ones 'round 'cause loyalty hard to find
The streets is crazy, I pray for 'em all the time
Unc' told me, "Mind your business, stack your paper, live your life
And watch out for the ones who movin' iffy, don't be blind
And give the ones you love they flowers now
'Cause tomorrow ain't promised, they won't always be around"
I wish
Wish I could hear your voice one more time (One more time, yeah)
Wish I could hug on you one more time (Shit, I miss you, yeah, one more, one more)
I wish God could open Heaven gates, so I could see your face (I wish, I wish) one more time (One last time)
'Cause I'm lost without you, can you give me a sign?
(Give me a sign)
We miss those days when we didn't have nothing to look forward to
But when your essence would join the room, the room would bloom and
We knew we'd make it through
You see grandma, it was more than just your kiss, your love and your hug
It was that joy you still shower on us from above, we
Could never erase you, we could never replace you
We spend all of our days just wantin' to embrace you
One more time
The pressures of every day are easy because of what you instilled in me, uh
People tried to rob me and steal my essence but
They don't understand what I stand on and believe, see
You taught us how to roll with respect
It was never complicated, you made it plain, uh
Grandma because of who you were and who's you were
We miss you
Nobody can take your place, grandma (You)
You were a real one (Shit, I miss you, grandma)
Nobody can take your place, grandma (Yes, I do)
You were a real one (Uh)
Nobody can take your place, grandma (Nobody, nobody)
You were a real one
Nobody can take your place, grandma (No, no, no, no, no, no, nobody)
You were a real one (Yee, yee)
Nobody can take your place, grandma (Yee, yee)
You were a real one
Down, down, down, down
I won't let you down, down, down, down, down, down
I wish I could hear your voice one more time
Grandma Daisy, what you did for us
I won't let you down, down
Will always be on our minds (Down)
You see, you was not just an eductor
Let you down
You taught us how to live and reach for our goals without the pressure
