Текст песни

I know one day I won't have to wait in line
I know one day I'ma get keys to that new ride
I know one day I'll be fine
And I know one day I'll get mine
And I know one day, hell it might be Monday

Uh, I remember thinking man I need a decent ride
And I would have to ask my momma for the keys to drive
With my brother riding in an old Cutlass
Black and mild lit, whole roof busted
Well who knows maybe one day we'll have a little more
We'll finally shop somewhere else besides the corner store
My little sister say she gotta have a pair of Dior's

But right now they'll probably stop us before we hit the door
My Uncle say that's how it is where we come from
And if it weren't for bad luck, we wouldn't have none
Hard to tell the good days from the bad ones
If I could catch a shooting star then I would grab one
I'd grab one for real

I know one day I won't have to wait in line
I know one day I'ma get keys to that new ride
I know one day I'll be fine
And I know one day I'll get mine
And I know one day, hell it might be Monday

Yeah, yeah, I remember feelin' trapped and no I couldn't get out
And when they laid my momma of no it just didn't amount
I still remember how she looked when she walked into the house
But still she tried her best to show what was Christmas about
And if we wanted hot water we had to microwave it
And every day the power cut off, but we tolerate it
The thoughts of all the beats I lost because I forgot to save 'em
I'm screaming at me in the mirror like "I gotta make it!"

My teacher tryin' to get through to me because of my behavior
I said, "I got big dreams and I gotta chase 'em"
I never cared a damn thing about a college major
I only had one need, that was a lot of paper
But see I never had a thing but a lot of prayers
After school, open mic night, rockin' stages
It all started from a demo to a limo from a limo to a Lambo
And all of this came up outta Decatur

I know one day I won't have to wait in line
I know one day I'ma get keys to that new ride
I know one day I'll be fine
And I know one day I'll get mine
And I know one day, hell it might be Monday

I used to dream about these days and the thing that I'd do
Had to get a new life, 'cause the old just won't do
I used to dream shades of gray, now the sky's shinin' blue
And everyday it feels like there's a way I can't lose

'Cause I knew one day I wouldn't have to wait in line
I knew one day I would get keys to that new ride
I knew one day I'd be fine
And I knew one day I'd get mine
Yeah, I knew one day, and not just Monday
Yeah

What motivates B.o.B?
Like, initially where you young and you trying to be heard
And you know, you broke tryna get money, then that shit motivation
You been able to have commercial success
You know what I'm saying? You doing shows, you eating and shit
So then people look like what-what he, you know, what's his struggle?

You know wh-, since I was a kid, man, like you know
I grew up in the house, you know I tell the story a lot of time but
You know I grew up in a house where, there really wasn't a house
You know, we literally grow up on a construction site, you know
We ain't have no doors and windows, no heat, AC (damn!), No refrigeration
You know, we used to put our food in a cooler at night
You know when the sun went down we had to go to sleep
'Cause we ain't have a light (damn! That's crazy)

So, mind you at-at the same time as I'm growing up
I'm thinking about the fact that these people in Third World countries is so way worse
That I've actually seen now traveling the world, performing and be like, yeah, you see me
They had way worse that this (exactly!)
And so it's like, I never really, I never really took my, my situation that much to heart
To the point where it was like a sad story for me, but it was more of a motivational thing
It was like a'ight, nothing would ever be this bad again
