One Moment Lyrics - Monifah

Verse 1 

Sometimes I swear I need a moment just (For Me) 

All to myself without a cause or reason (For Me) 

Sometimes a girl can get upset from 

Dealing with all life's pressures 

If you're supposed to be my friend then just understand it 

Now name the last time you did something just (For Me) 

Without it benefiting you in the process? (For Me) 

I feel I owe it to myself if I don't, nobody else will 

So into my room I go... 

Chorus 

Alone for a second, Alone for a minute 

Without you always up in my head I can think 

With one moment to bring, perspective, clarity 

Understand it or not, now I'm taking One moment for me, me, me, me (For Me) 

Verse 2 

I'm there for everybody else except (For Me) 

Miss Solve All Of Your Problems, call and ask (For Me) 

But now I've wasting all my tissues on other people's issues 

Difficult to dry my own tears now 

Try not to take it personal, this ain't for you (For Me) 

I gotta find a hiding place, sanctuary for me (For Me) 

If I don't set aside some time, I'll lose my entire mental 

So into my room I go.... 

Chorus 

Alone for a second, alone for a minute 

Without you always up in my head I can think 

With one moment to bring, perspective, clarity 

Understand it or not, now I'm taking 

One Moment for me, me, me, me (For me) 

Bridge 

I think it's time I take a little bit for me (Ah ha, Ah ha) 

A little bit can mean (Ah ha, Ah ha) 

A little more complete (Ah ha, Ah ha) 

And I'm ready to say today's my day 

But now I'm solo so into my room I go... 

Chorus 

Alone for a second, Alone for a minute 

Without you always up in my head so I can think 

With One Moment to bring, perspective, clarity 

Understand it or not, now I'm taking 

One Moment for me, me, me, me (For me) 

Adlibs 

Just for me (3x) 

Don't for you for me 

Don't take it personal 

Don't take it personal 

For me...For me
