How often do we dream about the distant future saying how our lives will look like one day when everything falls into place? What if we turn this thinking around and start living our dream lives one day at a time already today? You can find the lyrics below.

Song: One Day – at a Time

Lyrics: One Day – at a Time

They always say, “One day…”
One day I’ll live big.
One day I’ll feel free.
One day I’ll chase that dream.
But what if one day ain’t in the future…
What if it’s today?

⸻

They hit me with the classic: “One day, you’ll shine.”
“One day you’ll get space, one day you’ll get time.”
But I’m tired of that future that keeps movin’ away—
every time I reach out, it’s another delayed day.

See, dreams ain’t promises stamped on a far map,
they’re doses you test daily, micro-step rap.
A five-minute break, a ten-minute stroll,
a moment in the sun that recharges the soul.

Microvacations turn my calendar alive,
tiny pockets of joy that keep my dreams in drive.
Why wait for “one day” when I got right now?
I’m practicin’ my dream life any way I know how.

People plan monuments while their life stays paused,
but real change happens in the tiny applause—
those daily choices that compound like gold,
turnin’ ordinary minutes into stories told.

⸻

One day, at a time—
that’s how I build the dream I hold inside.
Not someday in the distance,
but today with open eyes.

One day, at a time—
I taste my future in these small designs.
Every moment is a brick
in the life I’m meant to find.

One day, at a time—
I hear the hopeful in the climb.
One day used to be a promise…
now it’s how I choose to shine.
One day, at a time.

⸻

I remember that voice echoing deep in history,
“I have a dream”—not a fantasy — a victory.
A call to action now, not a wait-and-see plan,
a spark that lit hearts across every land.

Inspired me heavy—
not to wait for my best day,
but to step into freedom
the very same day.
Not the finish line dream,
but the starting line spark—
finding light in the small moments
that brighten the dark.

So I flipped the script:
“I have a dream, that one day—
at a time—
I live my dream life,”
like change on the dime.

Microvacays stack like rungs on a ladder,
and every rung matters,
turnin’ scattered dreams solid
with each daily pattern.

⸻

One day, at a time—
that’s how I build the dream I hold inside.
Not someday in the distance,
but today with open eyes.

One day, at a time—
I taste my future in these small designs.
Every moment is a brick
in the life I’m meant to find.

One day, at a time—
I hear the hopeful in the climb.
One day used to be a promise…
now it’s how I choose to shine.
One day, at a time.

⸻

Why wait for a moment
when a moment’s right here?
Why chase distant freedom
when today can draw it near?

Every micro choice I make
is a heartbeat toward my prime—
I’m not livin’ “one day…” someday,
I’m livin’ one day at a time.

⸻

Yeah—
I ain’t waitin’ on the stars to align in the sky,
I’m creatin’ constellations with the minutes that fly.
Every lunch break turned into a tiny retreat,
every morning walk making my vibe feel complete.

My dream life ain’t a trophy buried years ahead,
it’s baked into the rhythms of the life I’ve led.
I build it like a mural, one stroke, one line—
microvacay masterpieces redefining my timeline.

I don’t run for a “someday” that keeps turning its back,
I let every single day pick up the slack.
And that’s the real power—
a dream lived slow, by design—
one small win at a time.
One day, at a time… One day, at a time…

⸻

One day, at a time—
that’s how I build the dream I hold inside.
Not someday in the distance,
but today with open eyes.

One day, at a time—
I taste my future in these small designs.
Every moment is a brick
in the life I’m meant to find.

One day, at a time—
I hear the hopeful in the climb.
One day used to be a promise…
now it’s how I choose to shine.

One day—
one day at a time.
