MOS DEF LYRICS - U R The One

"U R The One"



You are the one

You're the ooooone!



Other brothers just don't know

You got to feel me on this one man

So real

I'm so sin-serious about it, you know?

I know, I know more than a few is gonna relate

So much more than a few (fa-really real)

So much more (on the really real!)



When it started I knew it was trouble

But you know me

Them "hard an' e'rythings" can't hold me (you love, hardhead)

I need some shit straight out the movies

DRAMA

Warm to the touch, hot mama

You put me all in like launch jeans and scama

You was Mrs. Mine

So fine

Went from "we gonna conquer it all"

To "nigga I'ma see you in court"

I woulda never thought (damn)

I guess I better think again (you know?)

OK, now the shit is really sinking in

We ain't just divorced

We ain't even fucking friends

Cause in the end it was all about the ends



But fuck that I know it gotta be more to it

Held up with bitter hate with crosses all through it

And when I looked, what did I see?

You on the other end crying like me

Expression on your face like, "how could this be?"

That's what I'm asking, "what the fuck happened?"

How could all the magic and passion just vanish (c'mon)

Went from outsanding, to makin' me shout, "Dammit!"

Can't explain the changes, behavior's is outlandish

Now I'm just stuck in the road feeling stranded

I'm in the dark wishing for the answers

On some ol' "Biggie gimme one more chance" shit



When we met your face so brown

Ya ass so round, of course I'm so down

Wish I knew then what the fuck I know now

Couldn't read the signs in the road: "SLOW DOWN!"

I'm too deep in the road now

Got me pulling over getting smoked out

Fighting tears that I can't hold down

Can't believe it, this fucka's got me weeping

I keep it a secret so my friends won't peep it (live man?)

But late in the evening I'm up, my chest heaving

I'm reaching in the dark and I'm looking for the reason

(WHY!)

Did our love have to die?

You and I were so fucking fly

Can't get it off my mind

The things that made me smile now make me cry



You are the one

You're the one!

FUCK YOU!!



I wish we never met, I wish we never kissed

I wish we never touched (I swear to God)

I wish I didn't love you so much

I wish I could forget how feel, how you f--

(Damn) That's a lie

The shit that made me smile, now make me cry



You are the one

You're the one!

FUCK YOU!!



Sometime I wish we'd come back

Man, I wish we'd come back

(Memories!)--No lie

For real?

Fuck that



No, for real

It's a dangerous necessity, it's a world famous mystery

Love



That's it

Peace!
