One Time Weekend
Well, have you heard about the one time weekend?
Inner-city girl just drowning in the deep end
Couldn't see the light, now she's tryna to make it right
But the days not over 'till the sun falls down
Oh oh oh
You don't have to go but you can't stay home now
Oh oh oh yeah
If you wanna play the game then you got to know how
Oh she's a rebel, but her father is the devil
So she knows to be careful when he comes home late
Crying in the dark she's exposed to his remark
Theres a swift hand cutting through the cold night air
Why just the other day they were claiming MIA
But a copper caught the daughter, and she came home quick
Now she's locked in her room, starving in her tomb
And when the nightfall comes she's got one last trick
Well, have you heard about the one time weekend?
Proud family mother, she made it in the free land
Put up your fists and fight, she'd say to them at night
And the days not over 'till the sun falls down
There's a world out there
Full of life and love and care
Can you break the endless cycle?
Or do you catch the downward spiral?
And when you do is it for good?
Or will you curse this brotherhood
But you shouldn't even run
Cause daddy's got a gun
Inner-city girl just drowning in the deep end
Couldn't see the light, now she's tryna to make it right
But the days not over 'till the sun falls down
Oh oh oh
You don't have to go but you can't stay home now
Oh oh oh yeah
If you wanna play the game then you got to know how
Oh she's a rebel, but her father is the devil
So she knows to be careful when he comes home late
Crying in the dark she's exposed to his remark
Theres a swift hand cutting through the cold night air
Why just the other day they were claiming MIA
But a copper caught the daughter, and she came home quick
Now she's locked in her room, starving in her tomb
And when the nightfall comes she's got one last trick
Well, have you heard about the one time weekend?
Proud family mother, she made it in the free land
Put up your fists and fight, she'd say to them at night
And the days not over 'till the sun falls down
There's a world out there
Full of life and love and care
Can you break the endless cycle?
Or do you catch the downward spiral?
And when you do is it for good?
Or will you curse this brotherhood
But you shouldn't even run
Cause daddy's got a gun
