M.I.A. delivers a powerful message about self-identity and confidence in this track 🌟. Through her lyrics, she emphasizes the idea of being 'The One'—a force that cannot be overlooked or underestimated. She challenges listeners to recognize their own value and potential, suggesting that the search for external validation ends when one truly understands and embraces their unique strengths. The repeated lines "Why you looking for the one-one-one / When your search is done-done-done?" serve as a reminder that often, what we seek is already within us 🔍. M.I.A. calls on us to stop doubting and start owning our power, making it clear that she sees herself as a leader and innovator who sets trends rather than follows them.
The One
Lyrics
Got a ticket for the city, that's fire
TEC-9 for the side that'll fight ya
At a protest like, "come on and try it"
Put your picket down, come on and riot
Done roughed it over in the east side
Got a plane like I'ma let the trouble slide
Done stepped it over to the west side
Paperwork, yeah, I'ma get it certified
Head for the gate, art in the Tate
I'm the thing that sons imitate
You can't stop the fate
Stop the weight, lock away
Deny the debate relevant to the day
When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding?
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep finding
Tryna find the one
What you seeking ain't hiding
Tryna find the one
It's me you keep finding
Why you looking for the one-one-one
When your search is done-done-done?
Why you looking for the one-one-one
When your search is done-done-done?
Head to head, toe to toe
Showing up to go
They be sleeping on the heat
Yeah, so I let 'em know
Zoned in, dialed in
Tuned in to the core
Tryin' to get the message out
So I help you grow
Spread my wings to the walk, I'ma put a swing
This time I'm gonna flip the whole thing
New era, I'm gonna bring it in
To the basics, get the club bubbling
Head for the gate, art in the Tate
I'm the thing that sons imitate
You can't stop the fate
Stop the weight, lock away
Deny the debate relevant to the day
When you're tryna find the one
Why do you need reminding?
No matter how you look at it
It's me you keep finding
Tryna find the one
What you seeking ain't hiding
Tryna find the one
It's me you keep finding
Why you looking for the one-one-one
When your search is done-done-done?
Why you looking for the one-one-one
When your search is done-done-done?
