One Thing at a Time

[Intro]
You think this shit is easy
When really it's the opposite, yeah
Some people want to be me
They don't know the half of it

[Hook]
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time

[Verse 1]
Don't have much time to know ourselves
And who we want to be
Ain't no rush, but don't know much
We just want to be free
Constantly we look around and say "that could be me"
We all know that things take time
But that don't help us see

[Chorus]
Everybody fighting to get it
Why the richest people in the world always lonely and wicked
I know so many people at Harvard that don't want to be there
Other people in the hood they're trying to get out of there
Everybody got their own struggle
Don't worry 'bout the others, they gon' hate you they gon' love you
I don't want to be nobody else
We keep things to ourselves

[Pre-Hook]
So many times
I wished I was a knight
I know I'm not perfect, yeah
I try to tell them all the time

[Hook]
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time

[Verse 2]
You want a Porsche, Maybach
Baby girl want love, she laid back
Want to stunt on your ex, payback
You trying to get up out the streets but you in max
Trying to keep the kid from crying, spoiled brat
You just trying to be a graduate, throw your hat
You just trying to be an advocate, white or black
You just really trying to live and I get that
Never thinking that

[Chorus]
Everybody fighting to get it
Why the richest people in the world always lonely and wicked
I know so many people at Harvard that don't want to be there
Other people in the hood they're trying to get out of there
Everybody got their own struggle
Don't worry 'bout the others, they gon' hate you they gon' love you
I don't want to be nobody else
We keep things to ourselves

[Pre-Hook]
So many times
I wished I was a knight
I know I'm not perfect, yeah
I try to tell them all the time

[Hook]
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time
I can only do one thing at a time, time, time
I can only do one thing at a time
