The one


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

Head for the gate, art in the Tate
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

When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep finding
Tryna find the one
What you seeking ain't hiding
Tryna find the one
It's me you keep finding

Why you looking for the one one one
When your search is done done done?
Why you looking for the one one one
When your search is done done done?

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
Tuned 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

Head for the gate, art in the Tate
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

When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep finding
Tryna find the one
What you seeking ain't hiding
Tryna find the one
It's me you keep finding

Why you looking for the one one one
When your search is done done done?
Why you looking for the one one one
When your search is done done done?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
