The One Lyrics

Yeah, listen to me

Let me be the one to

The one to make this easy

I don't need you like you need me

No more begging, please don't please me

No more wishes, no more genies

No more lying, no more crying

When you see me on the tv

That's the old me, I was cheesy

I was drippin', drippin' greasy

Giving love like it's a freebie

But you threw it like a freezebe

Girl, I let you disrespect me

There's no seeing you in 3D

No more "what you up to now?"

No more love for you from ground

No more frowns turned upside down

It's just that when I hold this crown

I keep asking "who needs a king who's queen never came around?"

It even sounds worse out loud

I'm about to tell you something profound

Yeah, this that, this that "make my mama proud"

I carry pride like my sound

Let me be the one to

The one to make this easy

I don't need you like you need me

No more begging, please don't please me

No more wishes, no more genies

No more lying, no more crying

When you see me on the tv

That's the old me, that's the old me, that's that

(Let me be the one to)

The one to make this easy

I don't need you like you need me

No more begging, please don't please me

(Let me be the one to)

No more wishes, no more genies

No more lying, no more crying

When you see me on the tv

That's the old me, that's the old me, that's that

Pardon my speech

Even the old me, 'till this day wouldn't pardon this beat

Man, I'm glad I'm off seat

Back in high school I used to be young and naïve

I always had voice for the one that I seek

Trust me, my intentions were to get you off feet

But see? My intention's running deep

Until she asked me "Am I the only one you see ?"

I mean is it always and forever you see in me ?

Can you please obliterate my insecurities ?

Can you please show me what it's like to be with me ?

Man, I hate receipts, when they tax you it's "made belief" ai

Maybe we could be like ABC or 123, ai

But it's unfortunate you met the younger me, ai

As I hold this crown I keep asking

"Who needs a king who's queen never came around?"

It even sounds worse out loud

I'm about to tell you something profound

This that, this that "make my mama proud"

I carry pride like it's my sound

Let me be the one to

The one to make this easy

I don't need you like you need me

No more begging, no more pleasing

No more wishes, no more genies

No lying, no more crying

When you see me on the tv

That's the old me, that's the old me, that's that

Let me be the one to

The one to make this easy

I don't need you like you need me

No more begging, please don't please me

No more wishes, no more genies

No more lying, no more crying

When you see me on the tv

That's the old me, that's the old me, that's that
