You are the only one, the only one, the only one for me You are the only one, the only one, the only one I am the chosen one, the chosen one, the chosen one for you I am the chosen one, I froze your lungs, your breath tells me the truth I know that you know, I know that you know, and he knew it too When I walked in the room, what I could have done I should've left, yeah I should've went, but I couldn't go He is your plan, but I am your lie
[Chorus x2] I am a slave to these, make believe, things you say to me And I've built this hate machine of broken dreams and the wall did crumble
[Verse 2: Danny Brown] Can't think, can't sleep, can't eat, can't speak Game so strong, thought I had a cheat sheet But you got my heart beat like run around sheep Lil' Bo Peep can't kill my team Still run around beats so I slap them sheets Late night freak, queen black, who he? Cause when we together it's like he don't exist, cause it's all about you, not all about me So baby girl who you chosin'? Foolish how you got my mind in ruins Can’t think straight and I’m in mistake Looking in your eyes and lying in your face Rather lay in bed with your head on my chest Strokin' yo hair when I’m holdin' deep breath Feel so right I ain’t got nothin' left Heart skipping beats like a bad DJ set Head so gone and I can’t think straight Close my eyes all I see is your face Hear your voice bring chills to my spine Lose my mind until you’re mine Bitch I’m the chosen one, I’m the chosen one All I can focus on smoke and wine Know I ain’t sober, text you to come over Can’t make it to that bed room, mommy on the sofa
