One Mary J. Blige

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



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 for me to enter but then you make me crawl

And I can't keep holding on to what you've got

'Cause all you got is hurt



One love, one blood

One life, you've 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

One love, one love
