Just Another Day
Vallejo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woke up late, got up outa bed
Tried to wash my face
But i couldn't find my head
Yesterday, i lost my complexion
Looking in the mirror at a similar reflection
Pressure's on, the rhythm has begun
I'm cutting against the grain
And my sanity is gone
But just when i think my head is gonna blow
I tell myself there is always tomorrow

'Cause it's just another day
Ah get up! Hey!

Can't rush a good my only friend
I love you till the end
There's nothing we can do
But let the future begin
All these things they happen for a reason
My intentions are changing like seasons
Some people try to always rush things
Talk about it and won't even confront me
I'm feelin' down push it to the limit
Carrying a heavy load
will drag it if you let it pick it up

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day yeah

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day yeah
Just another day yeah

Back up from another black Sunday
Monday comes around
Gotta make it on to Tuesday
Wednesday's here
hump in on over to Thursday
Weekend's gone and i didn't even get paid
The pressure's on, the rhythm has begun
Cuttin' against the grain
and my sanity is gone
I'm in so deal me like a man
The ace is on the top
And the joker's in my hand and I'm out

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day yeah

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day
Just another day

Rock wants the rhythm
By quarter to four
Piranhas swimming in my head
I cannot open the door
I'm in the kitchen with the recipe
For lovin' the soul
But someone ripped up the page
So I go with the flow
Coming back up from another black Sunday
Monday comes around
Gotta make it on to Tuesday
Wednesday's here
Hump it on over to Thursday
Weekend's gone and I didn't even get paid

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day

Fire up another rhythm
Fly up and get away
I'm never gonna fret it
'Cause it's just another day yeah
It's just another day
Just another day




Just another day
Just another day yeah

Line by Line Meaning

Woke up late, got up outa bed
I overslept and had to rush out of bed


Tried to wash my face
I attempted to freshen up


But i couldn't find my head
I was too overwhelmed to focus


Yesterday, i lost my complexion
I felt off-kilter and out of sorts yesterday


Looking in the mirror at a similar reflection
I saw the same thing staring back at me


Pressure's on, the rhythm has begun
The stress is mounting and the day's challenges are underway


I'm cutting against the grain
I'm going against the norm


And my sanity is gone
I'm feeling overwhelmed and stressed


But just when i think my head is gonna blow
Right when I think I can't take it anymore


I tell myself there is always tomorrow
I remind myself there's another day to make it right


'Cause it's just another day
This is just a typical day, no matter how tough it gets


Can't rush a good my only friend
Don't try to hurry up something that takes time


I love you till the end
I cherish and value this thing deeply


There's nothing we can do
We're helpless in the face of certain realities


But let the future begin
But we can focus our attention on what's ahead


All these things they happen for a reason
Everything happens for a purpose or motivation


My intentions are changing like seasons
My aims are shifting with the passing of time


Some people try to always rush things
Some individuals try to force progress and don't take their time


Talk about it and won't even confront me
People gossip or complain rather than handle conflicts directly with me


I'm feelin' down push it to the limit
Even in tough times, I push myself to keep going


Carrying a heavy load will drag it if you let it pick it up
If you don't address your burdens directly, they'll weigh you down further


Fire up another rhythm
Get motivated and enthusiastic again


Fly up and get away
Move away from stressful situations


Just another day yeah
Every day is just another day, so keep pushing forward


Rock wants the rhythm
I want to get into the groove


By quarter to four
Before it's too late


Piranhas swimming in my head
I'm feeling overwhelmed with troubling thoughts


I cannot open the door
I'm struggling to overcome an obstacle


I'm in the kitchen with the recipe
I have the tools to get this done


For lovin' the soul
To improve my emotional well-being


But someone ripped up the page
My plans have been ruined or disrupted


So I go with the flow
I adjust my approach to align with changing circumstances


Back up from another black Sunday
Recovering from another tough situation


Monday comes around
The start of another week


Gotta make it on to Tuesday
Still have more days to tackle


Weekend's gone and I didn't even get paid
The weekend flew by without any time to earn a paycheck
