The One

Uh-uh, well
The one, the one, oh, yeah
Uh-uh, well
The one, the one

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

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, well

That was the first time I opened my eyes, baby
(The first time I just opened my eyes)
(I've seemed to falling)
I know (I know)

(Ooh) 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 (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 (is so hard, yeah, yeah)

They expect for you (they expect for you) to make their dreams come true
Just keep doin' what you do
Don't let them change you (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 (yeah, yeah)

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' (oh)
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 (they expect for you) to make their dreams come true
Just keep doin' what you do (make their dreams come true)
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 (is so hard)
Oh-oh-oh-oh

They expect for you (they expect for you) to make their dreams come true
Just keep doin' what you do (don't 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

Yeah-yeah, oh, yeah, well
Say, yeah
Say, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, yeah

They expect for you to make their dreams come true
Just keep doin' what you do
Don't let them change you (oh, yeah)
Just stay honest and true (change you)
'Cause if they knew what you knew
It's so hard to be the one, the one, the one, the one
(Hard to, hard to, hard to, hard to, hard to, yeah)

They expect for you to make their (oh, yeah) dreams come true
Just keep doin' what you do (oh, yeah)
Don't let them change you (do what you do)
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

Yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Say, yeah, well
