One of One

[Intro]
All these boring rappers
Haha
Uh

[Verse 1]
All these boring rappers, I would think y'all wouldn't need rest
Still, they're sleeping on me
Only they ain't see my dream yet
Telling me I'll be next
Cut it out like a c-sec'
Staring at the screen of my Apple 2-GS
Room, off to Squaria we going that would be my room
Kill them with the flow, the studio becomes a tomb
Stay in tune, hit every note
But I refuse to be convinced 'til I'm getting every vote
Want to know the price of fame, I can't even get a quote
Tell them hoes I want to hang, I can't even get some rope
But I got them in control once they pick up their remote
And I don't gloat, it's funny, though, cause you'll never know
I was the seventh grade's wordiest child
They heard my style was a flow that led to courteous bows
But deep inside, I tried to hide behind my permanent smile
Hope that perfection's somewhere lurking around, but now...

[Chorus]
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep

[Verse 2]
Soon everything you do
You do for yellow meets with blue
I do for him, her, me, and you
'til I'm the three subtract from two
Never was a project dude (Nah)
I was that dude making science projects in that Ivy school, wondering why I can't be cool
Mama hope for Ivy Leagues
Instead, I was rapping tracks
Get at poison ivy green
Even though I'm Batman Black
Told me I was gifted, so I thought: I have to rap
Bachelor pad
Full of bad bitches cause now I mastered that
Man they're here from space, G
But Kansas might have changed me
It only made me stranger
Like a person you can't name, see
I wrote scripts to make the girls like me
I promised an actress, I would have that broad casted like a live stream
So one time for them Squarians who riding
They held son down, now the dark night's rising
At times I didn't fit in
And went into hiding
Until someone came to remind me

[Chorus]
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep

[Verse 3]
How could a nigga be so fly that the sky was below him
Man, it shines so bright that his eyes couldn't show 'em
Vizzy Vizzy Vizzy, you know him
The turtle that breeze in my hair like a comb
A click in my heels still couldn't take me home
And wishing on a star couldn't do nothing for 'em
Crabs in the bucket, but lucky I wasn't worried 'bout no beaches
So all I gotta do is make them see this, believe it

[Bridge]
She's trying to draw me with a paintbrush
You say you want me, but you hate us
You say you want me, but it ain't love

She said she doesn't want to see me
I'll let your heart break freely
I guess you'll never know the real me
She should meet me

[Chorus]
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me
They could never make me
I'm a one of one
Go and try to replace me
They'll say it can't be done
Uh, because
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
Everybody's nobody
But nobody is me, yep
