One Lyrics

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame

You say one love, one life (One life)
It's one need in the night
One love (one love), get to share it
Leaves you darling, if you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it's too late, tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other

One, one
One, one
One, one
One, one

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head
Well, did I ask too much, more than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one, but we're not the same
See we hurt each other, then we do it again
You say love is a temple, love is a higher law
Love is a temple, love is a higher law
You ask me of me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on to what you got, 'cause all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters and my brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other

One, one
One, one

One
One love, one life

What is the Meaning of One?

The lyrics paint a picture of two individuals attempting to navigate their differences, with recurring emphasis on the concept of 'one'. It underscores the idea that while people are inherently diverse and unique, there's a fundamental interconnectedness that binds us all. It calls for understanding, forgiveness, and mutual support amidst these differences. The song also touches on themes of love and pain, suggesting that love can be both a sanctuary and a source of hurt. Ultimately, it emphasizes the necessity of shared responsibility in fostering unity - we must 'carry each other' despite our differences.
