Once In A While Lyrics - Konvicted - Akon

I can see it 

It's funny man 

Cause it's like it's not going nowhere 

And you gon' see it wherever there's struggle 

[Once in a while I do look at you] 

I see my pain in your eyes man 

[To see that twinkle in your eyes] 

So I know you're feelin' me 

It's that twinkle man 

That sign of struggle 

I've seen it 

In me

Cause everyday I can't help but see it 

People ain't satisfied 

And you're hatin' your 9 to 5 

and Everybody wanna live another life 

But ain't no length you go or mountain you climb 

Not to better your days 

All That would do is leave room for people to say 

"I guess you're livin' better now 

Share a little bit of that cheddar now" 

Cause I remember days back when 

A brother was hustlin' and robbin' too 

I done tossed the baretta now 

On a whole nother level now 

Still I can't enjoy my fame 

Unless my people doin' the same 

And gettin' money too 

[Once in awhile I couldn't look at you] 

Oh once in awhile 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you don't ever wanna struggle no more 

[Once in awhile I couldn't look at you] 

Once in awhile 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more 

Cause every time you ask me, I'm grindin' 

It shouldn't have to be that way 

You shouldn't have to pay my way 

I shouldn't have to want for a brighter day 

Got a little little problem on the way 

Bounty hunters checkin' state to state 

Child support lady on your case 

Not to mention tickets you ain't never paid 

Oh what must I do 

that's what you'll be askin' 

God please hold it down for me 

Don't let Satan get the hold of me 

I'm tryin' to tell you it can happen to me too 

But it happened a lot worse to my brother 

Muhammad thank God he recovered 

[Once in awhile I choose look at you] 

Once in awhile 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you never wanna struggle no more 

[Once in awhile I choose look at you] 

Look in your eyes 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more 

[Once in awhile I choose look at you] 

'Cause I see your pain now 

'Cause I see your pain now 

I can feel you strain now 

And I can see you cryin' 

And inside you're dyin' 

We're no longer the same now 

But you got to make change now 

[Once in awhile I do look at you] 

Once in awhile 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you don't ever struggle no more 

[Once in awhile I do look at you] 

Once in awhile 

[and see the twinkle in your eyes] 

And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more 

Don't wanna cry no more 

And I can see 

That you don't ever want to struggle no more 

And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry now more
