One of One

[Hook]
I been climbin’ through the pain, I ain’t fold, I evolved,
Had to lose my heart to learn what it cost,
Thirteen years gone, but I still stand tall,
I’m from the 401, we don’t run, we resolve.
Yeah, I gave my all, now I’m chosen,
Had to heal scars that was open,
She had a baby, my heart was broken,
But I turned my pain into motion.

[Verse 1]
I was down bad, sleepin’ on hope and regret,
Tryna build a future outta love I won’t forget.
She moved on quick, had a kid, left me sick,
But I prayed to God — said “make me rich in spirit, not quick.”
Used to cry to the mirror, now I stare like a king,
No label on me, I’m a diamond in the ring.
Providence born, I’m the pride of my block,
Every L I took taught me how to never stop.
Now I’m one of one, can’t clone this pain,
Made peace with the past, now I’m stormin’ through rain.
From gang ties to dream chasin’, I made that switch,
Lost love, found truth — that’s a millionaire’s gift.

[Verse 2]
Now I’m talkin’ to my dreams like, “I’m next, don’t blink,”
Took some time off, had to learn how to think.
They ain’t see the nights I was fightin’ my mind,
Now I’m lit in my city, every post, every line.
Ain’t doin’ it for clout, I’m doin’ it for peace,
Every wound from my past turned a beast off the leash.
Lost love, lost trust, but I gained me,
She moved on, but I’m finally free.
Yeah, I’m still childless, but I call that fate,
‘Cause God said, “Son, it ain’t your time to create.”
I’m buildin’ my legacy, one verse at a time,
From Providence nights to eternal shine.

[Outro]
I’m one of one — can’t copy my road,
From the ashes of pain, my purpose showed.
Thirteen years, now I’m built, not broke,
From the 401, where the real ones spoke.
