Sleeping At Last - One Lyrics






Hold on for a minute, 'cause I believe that we can fix this over time
That every imperfection is a lie
Or at least an interruption

Now hold on, let me finish
No, I'm not saying perfect exists in this life
But we'll only know for certain if we try

I... I wanna sing a song worth singing
I... Write an anthem worth repeating
I... I wanna feel the transformation
A melody of reformation

The list goes on forever of all the ways I could be better in my mind
As if I could earn God's favor given time
Or at least congratulations

Now I have learned my lesson
The price of this so-called perfection is everything
I spend my whole life searching desperately
To find out grace requires nothing of me

I... I wanna sing a song worth singing
I... Write an anthem worth repeating
I... I wanna feel the transformation
A melody of reformation

I hold it all more loosely, and yet somehow much more dearly
'Cause I spend my whole life searching desperately
To find out that grace requires nothing
Grace requires nothing of me

Sleeping At Last One Comments
  1. S.... D....

    I can’t stop crying now.

  2. s.... ....

    no one:
    my gay ass trying to get through all the songs from enneagram

  3. M.... Y....

    I just wanna remind anyone who comes across this comment that whether you’re a one, two, three, etc., your personalities do not absolutely define you. Your personality is absolutely unique. Don’t put a number on it.

  4. L.... D....

    It’s crazy how spot on this is 😮

  5. M.... E....

    Who is here from spotify

  6. M.... P....

    I always try to do my best. I know I have a lot of wrong characteristics, I try to be better, but I still feel I will never be good enough. How many people I have tried to please and yet, how could I please myself???

  7. M.... I....

    Stunning.

  8. T.... I....

    I sprang my whole life searching desperately
    To find out grace required nothing of me


    That had me crying

  9. P.... S....

    I’m a one... and I’m seriously struggling... I want to change so much I want to fix the problems I see and when I fail I beat myself up endlessly... I try to fix all these problems but I step in so many toes I just don’t know how to juggle all the moving parts...

  10. e.... ....

    I'm a 3 but I think the 1 and 3 are close I relate to the lyrics of 3 1 and 6 so maybe they're similar




    Edit: I'm a 3w1 btw

  11. I.... S....

    I'm a little bit of everything but mostly a 5 but I love this song all of them make me cry

  12. D.... B....

    i’m a 5w6, but One is definitely my favourite enneagram song in terms of the music itself. it’s breathtaking.

  13. I.... D....

    we are number one

  14. M.... E....

    Ok I think that the test was wrong because this isn’t my kind of song lol

  15. S.... T....

    When all nine songs make you cry...

  16. C.... G....

    The beat of the song matched my heartbeat that’s the bit that choked me up

  17. h.... w....

    who was from tiktok and done the test i got type 1

  18. C.... A....

    I'm in love with this song!

  19. J.... Y....

    This song isnt even good

  20. M.... ....

    omg this song really got to me , it’s exactly what I’m going through and I cried 🥺❤️

  21. G.... J....

    I’m sitting here it’s my birthday it’s taken me 10 minutes to listen to this song this song describes me

  22. G.... J....

    I don’t cry over songs. This is the first time. I’m sobbing.

  23. E.... G....

    Holy shit this hurts

  24. O.... G....

    I'm a 1 and a 3 so I'm listening but I haven't cried 😕

  25. N.... ....

    This is so good

  26. A.... h....

    Im a one and Wow...
    This hit

  27. E.... F....

    Am I the only one that's kinda scared that there's not alot of 1's in the world

  28. w.... z....

    Beautiful as always

  29. N.... B....

    Well shit

  30. U.... T....

    I'm a four, but all of his songs hit so close to home.

  31. L.... B....

    who came here from dat one sappy tik tok?? show it!

  32. A.... B....

    my best friend sent me here because she told me that this is exactly what describes how I feel right now and now I’m in tears bc of how correct she is

  33. R.... M....

    I’m a 9w1, and it’s so so easy for me to love others, but I never feel good enough in other’s eyes. I feel like I measure my self by comparing the amount of love that I give others to the amount of love that I feel, which makes me feel so alone and notice the things I need to change about myself. I see all the good in others and none in myself.

    R.... M....

    I'm so glad I've discovered your comment! I'm exactly the same and it feels so good to know that I'm not alone! <3

  34. k.... l....

    Who’s here from tik tok?

  35. C.... K....

    I’m a perfect mix of One and Five, and it gets really toxic sometimes

  36. M.... B....

    Im the type 1

  37. C.... P....

    This is powerful it’s eye opening the beat is everything it has its powerful to understand the anxiety the flow of power and energy in the song makes you feel like a weight has been lifted off your shoulder i can’t describe it but it’s not a bad feeling i love this so much.

  38. E.... M....

    Dream Big podcast brought me here ☺️

  39. r.... l....

    This hits so deep😢💔

  40. C.... C....

    We are number one

  41. D.... &....

    I didnt cry

  42. D.... B....

    I’m a one. Oh my god

  43. I.... s....

    I listen to this while doing planks, etc. . . I use the tempo to keep count of the seconds and the incredible music to channel my inner One. :) Thanks, Ryan. And thanks to all Ones for inspiring me with your hard work and drive.

  44. E.... B....

    I got 1, 3, and 5 so I'm listening to the songs

  45. A.... ....

    I got type 1 and this song is so close to me

  46. C.... G....

    This song IS perfection!

  47. f.... ....

    I’m a 4 and 6 but I feel like a 1. Can someone help me????

    f.... ....

    Barbie no

    f.... ....

    megan okay well then don’t say shit bitch

  48. O.... E....

    These are the things I want to tell my friends when they need me but the words just won't come out like I want them to. I'm not good with words.
    I can put it into metaphors and pictures but I can't say them out loud and I'm sorry that what I'm trying to bring across is not enough to make my friends understand that I love them and that I'm there for them. Sorry.

  49. H.... ....

    I took the test and this song. It hit me.

  50. K.... F....

    I'm a type 1

  51. r.... g....

    I’m type one.

  52. M.... S....

    ima cry

  53. Y.... Y....

    I took the quiz and got a 75% for number 5 but that song didn't really like relate to me and this type was only 50% but like it's accurate.

  54. A.... A....

    My friend: Take this test.
    Me: Ok!
    * 5 minutes later*
    Me: Done!
    My friend: Type one... ok.
    My friend: listen to this.
    Me:* Crys in the first ten seconds but still listens to it anyways*
    My friend: Are you ok....
    Me: * Still crying like the baby I am* Yep.... don't worry yourself.

    A.... A....

    EXACTLY THE SAME HAHA

  55. C.... C....

    This speaks so deeply to me. Your songs have so much soul and vulnerability. Thank you for being courageous enough to share your work with the world. God bless!

  56. a.... H....

    I'm not even a type one, I just like how "One" and "Two" sound a lot. I'm actually a type five but I like the sound of those songs better. IDK

    a.... H....

    Hannah Wrigg five is my second favorite song after one 💛

  57. A.... H....

    I love the words "grace requires nothing of me". If you are a person of faith im sure you have stumbled upon the thought of "I got to fix my sin" when in reality Christ has already fixed your sin. What a powerful reminder this song is.

  58. L.... P....

    I identify as a one. And this song is basically a description of my whole life. I try to be what people want me to be. It makes me feel like i can never be myself with anyone. Heck i dont even know who i am. I dont know how to be myself anymore. Ive lost myself in this fight trying to be what everyone wants me too. This song reminds me that everything doesnt have to be perfect and i dont have to try and fix that.

  59. C.... C....

    Apparently I’m a one but no matter how many tests I take nobody’s like me , I’m a caring person for my family, if someone says something not nice to me I just take it in and I don’t say anything back and walk away I do have a lot of friends but I don’t like them they are funny sometimes but I like to make fun of them without them knowing, they used to not like me and spread rumors so I like how I’m their best friend now and I get to torture with their feelings but I still love them and would do anything for them their the funniest people but I hate them. I change my personality around certain people so they like me so I get more popular when I go to school in the morning 6 people shout my name and run up to me and that’s the feeling of success but I’m not happy I don’t know what’s wrong with me

  60. A.... ....

    Subscribed man... So glad a friend recommended this channel to me

  61. L.... ....

    I’m a Reformer so this is mine and it hits hard bro

  62. M.... S....

    I want to keep the magic of sleeping at last all to myself but I also want him to go far as an artist. So many people are missing out.

  63. T.... D....

    "I wanna sing a song worth singing" is an amazing lyric, as a one I can relate and I want to put my mark on the world so I can be remembered

  64. l.... l....

    “grace requires nothing of me”

    Wow... The truth in that is beautiful. God’s grace is sufficient... Nothing we can do can earn us His love or mercy. Rather, by His grace and through faith in Jesus, redemption is ours to keep...

  65. T.... r....

    The list goes on forever for the ways I could be better in my mind .... I related so hard to that

  66. k.... ....

    type 1 appearently.. oh damn

  67. h.... h....

    i got one on the test oops

  68. F.... B....

    Type one gang nigga

  69. A.... I....

    That hit me hard, “Grace requires nothing of me.” I’m not a 1 but I am a 2w1 and as someone who tries to look good in the eyes of everyone, trying to seem perfect, it really makes me want to cry knowing that I don’t need to be perfect to find that grace.

  70. A.... F....

    I come here to see a disturbing lack of "We are number one"

    A.... F....

    My brother is a 1.

    A.... F....

    Like the song right?

    A.... F....

    My friend is a one and I might be a one.

    A.... F....

    hello from 1

  71. e.... ....

    how is this not more popular? it’s beautiful...

  72. C.... A....

    I'm a one and I cried because I realized I wasted my time for a bad song

    C.... A....

    Claudio Araoz what

  73. s.... x....

    underrated.. these lyrics rlly spoke and touched me in a way that no song has done before :)

  74. A.... C....

    who is here from that tiktok

    A.... C....

    Wut the heck this actually made me cry

    A.... C....

    It didn’t work lol

    A.... C....

    Ive lost hope for humanity

    A.... C....

    Lol how U know

  75. A.... C....

  76. M.... O....

    A Cada música eu fico mais apaixonada!

  77. T.... K....

    Um salve pros perfeccionistas q vieram dps da thread do cara lá do twitter

    T.... K....

    Pois é... não curti mt essa msc

  78. P.... C....

    The ascending piano reminds me of another song but I can't think of what it is. Someone help

  79. N.... ....

    Why am I crying at the "grace requires nothing of me" part fading out last wow I'm not even a 1 (maybe a wing of me is though!)

  81. M.... W....

  85. m.... ....

    i’m not crying—you are ;-; as a one, this song says everything about what i am as a person.

  86. J.... D....

    i just learned that these songs 1-9 are based off of the enneagram personality types and now that i've read up on them it just makes these songs so much more interesting. i can see how they included the personalities into the songs. i really love sleeping at last because they think about these things.

  87. G.... X....

    Boom thank you Jesus Christ. Grace requires nothing of me ❤️ thank you Sleeping at last your sound brings waves of refreshing!

  88. A.... C....

    Who came from greys anatomy

  89. C.... D....

    I know I’m being ignorant but I’m new to this artist- why does he have a song for each number? (1-9 I think)

  90. S.... ,....

    this hits me right in the feels.

  91. S.... T....

    I had goosebumps while listening. It’s so beautiful, touching and charming.

  92. j.... i....

    i'm a One and it's the worst thing in the world to always feel like what you're doing will never be good enough. i always tell myself i need to be better for the people around me - for my family, for my friends, for the people i care about. this song describes what i feel PERFECTLY. every failure i encounter discourages me and it's that fact about myself that i hate the most. we always strive for perfection but we seldom fail to realize that sometimes it's not what we need.

    i love this song so much :(

    j.... i....

    jay illon your making me cry 😭

  93. C.... ....

    I first want to say that this whole series is so amazing. My best friend is a 9 so we have been anxiously awaiting the release of the song and podcast this month! I decided to relisten to all the songs going from 9 to 1 and watching the lyric videos to better understand each one. And of course, as a 1 myself, my first thought was "why are the one and two videos different than all the others?!" hahah In all seriousness though, I appreciate you taking so much time and thought into each song. I find it hard enough to understand myself - I can't imagine the effort that went into writing each of these songs from the perspective of each number, and capturing them so well!


    Thank you!

  94. C.... P....

    Where is Nine?????

  95. S.... B....

    Where can i take a enneagram test.

    S.... B....

    I'd recommend this test: https://enneagramtest.net/ ... Three numbers will be sent to your email and you'll likely relate to one more than the others. Don't stop there - do plenty of research and eventually you'll know your type.

  96. g.... o....

    Its just so hard sometimes
    Keep going

  97. a.... m....

    I'm having a hard time understanding the lyric "I want to feel the transformation, the melody of reformation". Please share your thoughts on this.

  98. p.... m....

    grace requires nothing of me"

  99. A.... ....

    Really needed to hear this song at this point in my life. Thank you and God bless, brother.
