Lyrics One Time - Horseshoe Gang

I had never met Granny on my fathers side
Met the one on my mommas side
By the time I was probably 5 I realized that her and momma would never see eye to eye
But yo time and time again my momma tried
To the point where I figured that I should try
Then grand momma died
I'm raising my voice to the sky to God
Really I'm trying to find out why

She never hugged me just one time
Never told me she loved me just one time
I mean one time would have been just fine
Man people can be so unkind

Maybe you never understood what I would do for
A little bit of your attention shined a few floors
Look every other day I would find a new chore
Hoping you'd like [?] do more
Your dining room floor looked nice and new or I'd find a broom
I'd sweep your entire room till I was too sore
Maybe you didn't like me cause I was too poor
Misguided views sure
Maybe you didn't like me cause my skin, didn't have light skin
My skin wasn't bright but I was a bright kid

Sorry I didn't make you proud
I was waiting for you to love something but you didn't know how
Didn't know what I was thinking about
But I wanted your love just one time when I was a child

She never hugged me just one time
Never told me she loved me just one time
I mean one time would have been just fine
Man people can be so unkind

But she passed away so God rest her soul
How she really felt about me I will never know
I'm trying to get points across in this song I'm finna be out of breathe and I'm now even a little bit concerned with breathe control
I remember those cold nights in Oklahoma
We we're broke and homeless
But before we could be strolling over to your home
And hope you'd open you were on your phone telling us don't come over
I know that most my folks in Tulsa won't like this song but
I don't want to hold a grudge I wrote this in hopes to console
My broken soul to stop this emotional roller coaster

No love no love what the hell was I thinking of?
Now it's too late to hold you you've gone way up above

Hook]
Sorry I didn't make you proud
I was waiting for you to love something but you didn't know how
Didn't know what I was thinking about
But I wanted your love just one time when I was a child
