The One
Navigating Love's Shadows: Ziyaad Luceō's Reflections on Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Why do I hold this shame?
Expressing a feeling of shame and questioning its presence.
When I don′t feel like I did you wrong
Denying wrongdoing but acknowledging a sense of guilt or shame.
Kept it honest from the go
Claiming honesty and openness from the beginning.
Just because we f*ck, don't mean we belong
Highlighting that physical intimacy doesn't necessarily imply a meaningful connection.
Can′t deny how you're feeling (Oh yeah)
Acknowledging the undeniable nature of emotions.
Pain of hitting a ceiling (Baby)
Describing the pain of reaching a limit or a relationship plateau.
You can have anyone, everyone
Recognizing the person's attractiveness and desirability.
So please don't call me the one
Requesting not to be labeled as "the one" despite the attractiveness.
One
Repetition of the idea that the singer is not "the one."
One
-One
-Thought I was the one
Expressing a belief that the singer was initially considered "the one."
Wish I was thinking like you
Expressing a desire to share the same thoughts and feelings as the other person.
Wish I was feeling like you
-One
Repetition of the desire to think and feel like the other person.
One
-One
-Thought I was the one
-Wish I was thinking like you
-Wish I was feeling like you
-I′m sorry
Apologizing for a perceived mistake or shortcoming.
Baby girl, I′m sorry
-Don't know what′s wrong with me
Admitting uncertainty about the singer's own issues.
But I know you're not right for me
Acknowledging that the other person is not the right fit.
Oh no no no
Emphasizing the disagreement with the idea of the other person being suitable.
It′s more about me than you
Stating that the singer's issues are more internal than related to the other person.
It's more about me than you, baby
-I′ve been picking pride over love lately
Choosing pride over love in recent times.
'Cause I ain't feeling how you feeling, baby
Explaining the lack of alignment in feelings with the other person.
Why do I hold this shame?
-When I don′t feel like I did you wrong
Reiterating the lack of wrongdoing and maintaining honesty.
Kept it honest from the go
-All the feelings you found, you found on your own
Noting that the other person discovered their own feelings independently.
Can′t deny how you're feeling (Oh yeah)
Acknowledging the undeniable nature of emotions and the pain of limitations.
Pain of hitting a ceiling (Baby)
-You can have anyone, everyone
Repeating the request not to be considered "the one."
So please don′t call me the one
-One
Reiteration of the idea that the singer is not "the one."

-Thought I was the one (you thought)
