One More Swipe

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You wake up with one eye open Thumb already on the run Thirty minutes turned to nothing And the day just started, son You say, “I’ll do it after breakfast” Then you call that lunch a plan Now the bill man send a reminder And you still in your pajamas, man You scroll past joy like it owe you Scroll past pain like it don’t Every post got somebody “winning” While your to-do list sulk and moan You got twenty tabs of “maybe” And a fear that dress up neat But the rent don’t take excuses And the fridge don’t eat regret for meat [Pre-Chorus] Better move, better move, better move Yeah, the clock don’t wait for you Small step beat no step That’s the rude little truth [Chorus] One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by One more swipe, one more lie Now tell me, why, why, why? Get up, baby Go face that thing Little by little You still can win One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by [Verse 2] You been acting like a weather man Forecasting doom for fun “If I try and fail, that’s ugly” So you never tried one You got that job post saved in secret Got that dream with dust on top Got that one friend changing cities And your courage like, “Wait—stop” But listen, fear is a bad landlord It takes space and calls it home Keeps you paying with your nervous system Till your brave self feels alone And bills? Bills got bad manners They show up uninvited, straight Still, the kettle can boil water Even when the pot is late [Pre-Chorus] Better move, better move, better move Yeah, the clock don’t wait for you Small step beat no step That’s the rude little truth [Chorus] One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by One more swipe, one more lie Now tell me, why, why, why? Get up, baby Go face that thing Little by little You still can win One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by [Verse 3] I knew a man named Danny Had a plan in every shoe New notebook, new pen, new promise But no follow-through He said, “Tomorrow I start serious” While he bought another snack Then his baby cousin outworked him And that joke came looking back So he laughed, then he got honest Said, “I think I’m scared to begin” I told him, “Boy, you not a statue You just stuck in your own spin” He took one call, sent one email Packed one box, cleaned one shelf Nothing magic, nothing pretty Just a way back to himself And when the first pay come in handy He laughed loud, shook his head Said, “I thought change was a monster Turns out change just wanted bread” [Bridge] If you fail, fail moving If you bend, don’t break If you wait for perfect You’ll be waiting on fake Take the awkward little first step Take the rude little start A brick by brick kind of living Builds a door for your heart [Final Chorus] One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by One more swipe, one more lie Now tell me, why, why, why? Get up, baby Go face that thing Little by little You still can win One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by One more swipe, one more lie Now tell me, why, why, why? Get up, baby Go face that thing Little by little You still can win One more swipe, one more lie One more day gone by Comment MICROPHONE ECONOMY. Check your DMs. One keyword. One page. One inbox.
