1U

I lowered my standards to accommodate others
Even sacrificed more than their own mothers
For them I would fight, like we are blood brothers
When everything is hard on me, nobody else bothers

The story of my life, I fail to play lead
People only know me, in the time of their need
Cos of other people's problems there are nights I can't sleep
Then I beat myself up, but with them I can't speak

I taught many people how to wrongly treat me
By forgiving everything that is done against me
Everybody gets away with what they do against me
I get mad at myself cos it really hurts me

But I don't fight them, it's me against me
Cos everybody wins, when they put against me
I'm gentle towards other but I'm hard against me
And I don't know how to deal with it, it's robbing my peace

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

You're life is a movie and you're playing lead
There's gona come a time every character every character gon leave
You're the trunk of tree, everybody is a leaf
And instead of being stressed be relieved when they leave

Why you fighting every battle that was never yours
For other people you are ready to go against the odds
And it takes away your happiness and it messes with your thoughts
You're kind to everybody with yourself you're not

If said write a list of everything you love.
Would your name be at the bottom of the list or above
I know my name wouldn't even make it to the list
Even if I wrote it twice, I would never make the list

I see a lot of people who are nodding to agree
Cos they know that it's a fact, it's the way it's gona be
But everything I give has to really start with me
Cos I can't give anything I don't have in me

A lot of us are hurting and we bleeding deep inside
Cos we looking for this happiness we cannot even find
Happiness is something you should look for inside
Then you open it like coke, start pouring it outside

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One for the rest of us
Don't regret being generous
Even when things fall apart

There is one you
One you
There is one you
One you
There is one you
One you
There is one you
One you
