One Second - Stormzy, H.E.R.

I get this daunting feeling on the days I’m on my best

When all these demons that I carry get to messin' with my head

So could you give me just a second just to get 'em off my chest, please?

If you give me just one second of your time

I could tell you stories 'bout my life

I’ve seen hope and I’ve seen struggle through these eyes

So give me just one second of your time (Yeah, like, like)

One second to recollect

Just a second, a second is all I get

I can’t tell where I’m heading, I’m outta breath

All these early premonitions of my death (Ooh)

But I knew He had plan (Uh-huh)

Lord knows I’ma do it if I can (Lord knows)

When I take a stand, they say I’m ruining my brand

But I could never give a fuck, that’s just my duty as a man

So if I go on stage at BRITS and tell the PM she’s a bitch

Then that’s exactly what it is and I don’t want no bloody stripes for it

Mummy always said if there’s a cause then I should fight for it

So, yeah, I understand, but I don’t think that I’m alright with it

Like yeah, cool, I get it

Yeah, I know I said it

But there’s people fighting every day and they don’t get the credit

But it’s cool, man, that’s just one of the stresses on my mind

To get this out my chest I need a second of your time, please

If you give me just one second of your time

I could tell you stories 'bout my life

I’ve seen hope and I’ve seen struggle through these eyes

Oh, give me just one second of your time

Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, just one second, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-oh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ohh

If you give me just one second of your time

I could tell you stories 'bout my life

I’ve seen hope and I’ve seen struggle through these eyes

So give me just one second of your time

So give me just one—

Just one second

So give me just one—

Just one second
