Michael Franti & Spearhead - Once A Day Lyrics






Yeah,
Uh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah,
Uh huh! Yo! Yo! Yo!
Here we are!
We come number one, number one worldwide!
Number one worldwide!
Ha ha ha ha
This one's dedicated to all the Soulrockers out there
Number one, number one worldwide!

Yo
No no no no, you never know what the world is gonna show you,
It ain't up to you
You always think it's gonna happen to another person
And it's never ever gonna happen to you
You got your friends, you got your money
Got your family, got your honey
You think you got a million days
But then life comes along and it knocks you right down to the ground
And that's why I say that

Everybody ought to hug somebody at least once a day
And everybody ought to kiss somebody at least once a day
Everybody's gonna miss somebody at least once a day
And everybody gotta love somebody everyday

And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up!

I heard the purpose of life's to live a life full of purpose
And so don't ever take for granted what the spirit has given you
In the first verse
You might never get a second verse
This ain't rehearsal, you can't put it in reverse
So just believe in yourself
Don't let nobody bein' negative, tell you what to do
Cause I know (cause I know)
In this sweet sweet life
That just this much is true
Ay ay ay

Everybody ought to hug somebody at least once a day
And everybody ought to kiss somebody at least once a day
Everybody's gonna miss somebody at least once a day
And everybody gotta love somebody everyday

And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Spread your wings and fly)
And we all will rise up!

[Sonna Rele:]
So don't you worry bout what people say
Raise your head up and be on your way
And it don't matter if you fall today
Just get up, get up, get up, get up

We rise up! (Hey)
We rise up! (Hey)
We ri-i-i-i-ise! (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
We rise up! (Hey)
We rise up! (Hey)
We ri-i-i-i-ise!

Everybody ought to hug somebody at least once a day
And everybody ought to kiss somebody at least once a day
Everybody's gonna miss somebody at least once a day
And everybody gotta love somebody everyday

And we all will rise up! (Rise up)
And we all will rise up! (Yeah)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up! (Come on, fly)
And we all will rise up! (Rise up)
And we all will rise up! (We gonna rise)
And we all will rise up!
And we all will rise up!

This is for all the Soulrockers
Number one, number one worldwide!
All around the world
Number one, number one worldwide!
Number one, number one worldwide!

Spread your wings and fly!
Peace in the Middle East, y'all
Michael Franti!
Spread your wings and fly!
Peace North and South, y'all
Sonna!
East and West peace is the best, y'all
Spread your wings and fly!
Yo, yo!
Number one, number one worldwide!
Number one!
Ay!

    My principle knows Michael Franti

  47. B.... ....

    Great tune. Super message! So when will the tour bring y'all to Buffalo/Niagara Falls?

  48. B.... T....

    I have heard his music over the years and liked it. Over the past couple years been through some tough family times and really been doing some soul searching. Lump on top of that everything that is going on right now in our country and in the world and it is easy to be down and cynical. But I had the opportunity to see him live at Red Rocks a week ago. I can honestly say that I have never been more personally impacted by a show in my life. I left that show with a true desire to be a better person. A better husband, a better father and generally a better human. Since that show I have striven every day to figure out what little thing I can do each day to make the world a better place. He said at the start of the show that he got into music because he thought that it could change the world... I think he is doing it. Thank you Michael and your whole organization for doing what you do.

  49. K.... F....

    I am so happy that this song exists. It makes me feel happy. The video is full of happiness 💕 nothing but dancing and hugging and doing fun things. That's what this world needs.

  50. j.... ....

  51. C.... W....

    my class loves thess songs

  52. J.... ....

    They need this back on the west koast of Hawaii!!!

  53. C.... L....

    Heard this today on Hawaii Five-0 (season 8).What a great song!! Greetings from sunny Durban, South Africa. Another beach city loving this song, rollerblading on the beachfront. Thanks for sharing and your message, Michael.

  54. n.... c....

    this all's  so nothing but happy !!!thx

  55. P.... K....

    Yes sir, Señor Franti, SIR!! www.guesthouseofmilwaukee.org Please come to Milwaukee SOON!!!

  56. m.... k....

    I love this song now I heard this song from value village

  57. a.... s....

    I love it! People, just be. and be yourself

  58. S.... D....

    I LOVED BEING IN THIS VIDEO!! Such a fun shoot! Such a great message ;)

  59. D.... l....

    After reaading about his background, I must say I admire the fact that he kept his adopting father's last name as his stage name. His parents can be nothing but proud of him.

  60. J.... M....

    I’m sure I could’ve possibly liked this song but they always over play it at my work

  61. M.... R....

    Never gets old...<3 <3 <3

  62. C.... N....

    I love it and such a true message!!

  63. W.... w....

    Thanks for your music Michael. When I'm down all I need is to hear you to raise my spirits.

  64. B.... c....

    best song,tq M.franti

  65. T.... ....

    I agree with this song. I would add: turn away from evil, turn 100% to Jesus individually and as a nation and we will be able to have EVERYTHING this song is talking about. There will be no stopping Heaven raining down to Earth.

  66. Y.... A....

    💜💜💜💜💜

  67. K.... ....

    beautiful. I won't give up thanks to this and how it makes me feel :)

  68. M.... W....

    Stop the suicide of single people. Every day single people commit suicide because they are deprived of love. Love one another before another soul leaves the earth.

  69. B.... ....

    Love..Love this song!!

  70. l.... ....

    I think I'm in love with the centered, dancing Indian girl. Her smile and enthusiasm is just so alluring.

  71. M.... R....

    ya gotta wonder,  who are those who do not like this???

  72. K.... S....

    I love this song !!! I love them all your great!!! thanks for making me dance !!

  73. R.... W....

    I've got to meet Michael Franti in person ! I went to a concert for the cure back in October of 2015 . I had My picture taken with him he is really down to earth one of the nicest person you'd ever want to meet !

  74. R.... W....

    I like this song . This is what's needed more then ever today . I like all the lyrics in the song & they hold very true I get what he said you think you got a. Million days . No one is guaranteed nothing there comes a time in life when you have to lay your differences a side . I've lost a lot of family members My grandparents on dad, s side of the family is gone my dad & his brother are gone & My mom side of the family she lost a sister & two brothers. Before that her dad was a alcoholic . That's what killed him . Was the alcohol . At least I'm glad that I at least had two grandparents on dad,s side that really made a difference in
    My life! I'm glad I knew them . I enjoyed every minute of being together. . My grandma passed away on Sept11 of 2015. She would have been 97 yrs old on July 1 . I say live life to fullest you just never really know when your time is up . We think we all got a million days .

  75. l.... ....

    love this song. everyone should listen to this first thing in the morning!

  76. s.... ....

    That guitar is getting a Monte Montgomery makeover.

  77. O.... ....

    Jeepers, how does this have more likes than dislikes?! The world is seriously killing music with this safe,pseudo- happy,junkfood pop music...

  78. D.... D....

    Rise by lifting others, love the positive vibes. The world needs more of this.

  79. S.... L....

    Cmon!!!!!! this is too good!!!!!

  80. L.... M....

    This is so wonderful! I am such a huge fan Michael Franti! Thank you!!!!

  81. C.... L....

    see you in Colorado with my 90 year old dad love you. He is love

  82. N.... S....

    Michael,Do you know my Aunty Tina from Melbourne

  83. j.... ....
