Mattisyahu-One Day

So I have heard of Mattisyahu before but I had never really listened to any of his music. I came across this song and it has one of the most beautiful messages. I want to share it with you to pass along a little hope and a little beauty. Share this with your friends, family, enemies, anyone who you think could use a peaceful message.



here are the lyrics too

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank G-d I'm breathin'
Then I pray
Don't take me soon
'Cause I am here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
Because

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day x6

It's not about
Win or lose
'Cause we all lose
When they feed on
The souls of the innocent
Blood drenched pavement

Keep on moving though the waters stay ragin'
In this maze you can lose your way (your way)
Might drive you crazy
But don't let it faze you no way (no way)

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around
Because

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day x6

One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Down with the hate
One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom like...

One day x2

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day x6

Love, love, love this song! It was my ring tone for awhile, think I'll put it back on. :-)
