The One Lyrics


M.I.A. The One

[Verse 1]
Got a ticket for the city, that's fire
Tech 9 for the side that'll fight ya
At a protest like “Come on and try it!”
Put your picket down, come on and riot
Done roughed it over in the east side
Got a plane like I'ma let the trouble slide
Done stepped it over to the west side
Paper work, yeah, I'ma get it certified

[Pre-Chorus]
Head for the gate, art imitate
I'm the thing that sons imitate
You can't stop the fate
Stop the weight, lock away
Deny the debate relevant to the day
[Chorus]
When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding?
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep findin'
Tryna find the one, what you're seekin', ain't hidin'
Tryna find the one, it's me you keep findin'

[Hook]
Why you lookin' for the one, one, one
When your search is done, done, done?
Why you lookin' for the one, one, one
When your search is done, done, done?

[Verse 2]
Head to head, toe to toe, showing up to go
They be sleeping on the heat, yeah, so I let em know
Zoned in, dialed in, tune in to the core
Tryin' to get the message out, so I help you grow
Spread my wings to the walk, I'ma put a swing
This time I'm gonna flip the whole thing
New era, I'm gonna bring it in to the basics
Get the club bubbling

[Pre-Chorus]
Head for the gate, art imitate
I'm the thing that sons imitate
You can't stop the fate
Stop the weight, lock away
Deny the debate relevant to the day
[Chorus]
When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding?
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep findin'
Tryna find the one, what you're seekin', ain't hidin'
Tryna find the one, it's me you keep findin'

[Hook]
Why you lookin' for the one, one, one
When your search is done, done, done?
Why you lookin' for the one, one, one
When your search is done, done, done?
