I WAS THE ONE
Lyrics by Anthony Antoine - Produced by Jimmy George, Co-produced by Anthony Antoine
Verse 1
I was the one who loved you like no other love was
true
I was the one who showed the way when you didn’t
know how to
I was the one when you were sick I bought you soup
and things
I was the one who bust my ass for your four carat
diamond ring
Bridge
Now you take you love away from me
And you get your kicks by giving to the tricks out on
the street
How could you do this to me
Chorus
Loving that stands next to none
Outstanding and next to none
Props you’ve got to give me some
More than enough of the love you need
But one man will never keep you pleased
Now you “f”in with them when it should be me
Baby
Verse 2
I was the one who treated you with nothing but
respect
I was the one who paid your bills and bought you
home my checks
I was the one who did romantic things the finest wine
C l o s e t s O n F i r e
lyrics
and dine
I was the one who ate the – all night long from the
behind
Bridge
Now you take your love away from me
And you get your kicks by giving to the tricks out one
the street
Denied my own self before I’d see you without what
you need
How could you do this to me
When I laid my loving down on the line
May not come when you want but like Jesus I was
always on time
And it makes no sense to me
Chorus
Break
Not Reggie, Dewayne, not Charles and not Sean
Not Freddy or Gary, not Sam or Lewan
Not Chris or Christian, not James or Jim not Burrel or
Jamal
Not Marcus, Kenneth, Ron or Don, not Scott and not
Paul
Not Tyrese, not Taye Diggs, Shemar or Jon B.
Not Denzel, or Maxwell, Ginuwine or J.D.
Not Tyson Beckford or one DeBarge or DeAngelo
I was the one, the only one
And this you already know
Chorus Out
