Day After Day
The Millennium Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been chasing hundreds since day 1
Ain't nobody with me but my day one's
Haters gon' say that I'm faking that I changed up
But they don't even know what I came from
If big bank take little bank I'm winning
Can't nobody see me through the fog
And they won't even hear me if I call
But they say big bank take little bank
Got many messages I've yet to hit reply too
You say you surprised at my distance well I'm surprised too
Thinking it's karma from all the women that I've lied too
Was never scared of confronting even if I might lose
Been gliding down these streets but now my tires loose
My glass house is on fire and I'm not fire proof
The stress I'm feeling been thinking I might retire soon
The path I'm heading I'm dreading hearing that choir's tune
People I loved growing up is not the same people
It's kinda hard when you realize that you ain't equal
A lot of people be evil claiming they ain't evil
That's why I've come with the terms that I just hate people
People I grew up with is graduating college
Some got they babies already, congratulations awesome
I wish the best for the people that fascinate me often
And if you take that as negative go replay this song then
I've been chasing hundreds since day 1
Ain't nobody with me but my day one's
Haters gon' say that I'm faking that I changed up
But they don't even know what I came from
If big bank take little bank I'm winning
Can't nobody see me through the fog
And they won't even hear me if I call
But they say big bank take little bank
My life's been filled with those who come and go and
I hate decisions that I made but I was young and hopeless
But those decisions got some people lost within the ocean
Maybe it's me who they should blame for my lack of devotion
I could count the people I trust with half a hand
And me admitting that doesn't make me feel half as grand
Was under the impression love for me ain't have a chance
To get women to look in my direction even half a glance
I felt I was desperate and I started feeling depressed quick
And I guess God got the message and gave me breath I was breathless
I love the man I've become
But I hate the men that I see
The things that I've overcome
The mountains and the debris
They would tell me I'm not the one
They were doubting all of my dreams
So I took control of the gun
And I made everyone believe
That I'm a be number one
That I'm a have all the cheese
I'm still here with my day ones
From Q down all the way to D believe
I've been chasing hundreds since day 1
Ain't nobody with me but my day one's
Haters gon' say that I'm faking that I changed up
But they don't even know what I came from
If big bank take little bank I'm winning
Can't nobody see me through the fog




And they won't even hear me if I call
But they say big bank take little bank

I am, the one, who can't see myself
Tonight, it's cold, it's raining outside there
I know, the truth, that you can't free yourself
Of all the cheats and sadness
And turn it into love

Day after day
Night by to night
I've been waiting to love again
Day after day
Night by to night
Love is waiting inside your heart
Day after day
Night by to night
I've been waiting to love again
Day after day
Night by to night
Love is waiting inside your heart

Someday, somehow, we'll have to say good bye
To you, and me, to fates we align
You are, the one, yes all because of you
All the things you feel well,they turn into love
Day after day
Night by to night
I've been waiting to love again
Day after day
Night by to night
Love is waiting inside your heart
Day after day
Night by to night
I've been waiting to love again
Day after day
Night by to night
Love is waiting inside your heart
