lyrics

You already know
I am insecure
Could never believe that
I could be the one. look at
all the girls around you.
You say that you won't
Look at what they got and
Look at what I don't

You look like a god
Sitting on your thrown
You compose a thunder
Beating on your drums
she say baby can't you see it
you could be the one
Baby you can have me
Everything you want
everything you want

you are the one
why won't you be it
you are the one
why can't you see it?
you are the one
why can't you feel it
why can't you feel it?

fuckin up my posture
always trying to fold
trying to be smaller
be invisible
don't wanna be the center
dead and burning star
i wanna be the flower
watching from the wall

sit up on a stage
look out at the crowd
some are sitting quiet
some are talking loud
all i see is me
falling to the ground
all i see is demons
try to tear me down
tryn to tear me down

you are the one
why won't you be it?
you are the one
why can't you see it?
you are the one
why can't you feel it
why can't you feel it
why can't you feel it?

i have been a goddess
in the mirror's gaze
i have been a beggar
starving for your praise

Stare into a darkness
deep and black as coal
call to the orisha
heal this broken soul.

you already know
i am insecure
i could never believe that
i could be the one
say it myself
hear the words from you
praying for the moment
i know it is true

you are the one
why can't you be it
you are the one
why can't you see it
you are the one
why can't you feel it?
why can't you feel it
why can't you feel it?

I am the one
when will i know it?
i am the one
why can't i show it?
i am the one when will i own it?
when will i own it
when will i own it?
