Earth Wind And Fire - The One lyrics

rate me

They expect for you to make their dreams come true

Just keep doin' what you do

Don't let them change you

Just stay honest and true

Cause if they knew what you knew

It's so hard to be the one, the one, the one, the one

Many have tried it

But you are that walking testimony

That makes me believe

To trust not in what I hear

And re-think all I've seen

That was the first time I opened my eyes, baby

(The first time I just opened my eyes)

I've seen to fallen

(I've seen to fallen)

I know cause I give so much more than what they expect of me

Is it fear that your opponent

Could very well be me

And you will be second now

Ain't it hard to stay on top

They expect for you to make their dreams come true

Just keep doin' what you do

Don't let them change you

Just stay honest and true

Cause if they knew what you knew

It's so hard to be the one, the one, the one, the one

Searchin', you found it, you climbed it

But was that mountain everything you thought it would be

No matter how far you go girl

You'll come right back to me

Ain't life funny, baby

Well, believe it (just keep believin' it)

And achieve it (just keep achievin' it)

Keep on dreamin'

Look at everything with innocence just like a child

Keep your head up, don't let no one make you frown

Gotta keep smiling baby (keep on risin' to the top)

They expect for you to make their dreams come true

Just keep doin' what you do

Don't let them change you

Just stay honest and true

Cause if they knew what you knew

It's so hard to be the one, the one, the one, the one
