[Intro]
In case you ain't know, check it
Let me tell you right not and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
[Verse 1]
Uh, I saw them guys you were wit'
I don't flash platinum watches and drop-top whips
But you can rest assure you my perfect fit
Every dollar that we get, we be earning it
Yo, you never have to worry about me taking a trip
Or leaving you at home so I can quickly forget
Yo, with me it's the opposite, you swerve the jeep
You the queen of ya house, you earn your keep
And I rеspect that, in high school we both got left back
Wе both were divorced and had setbacks
But you should never let that depress you
God has blessed you, yo, here's what KRS do
Support your goals, keep you warm when it's cold
It ain't about now, it's about when we get old
[Chorus]
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
In my heart you are that number one girl
You are the one (One, one, one)
Even when your hair ain't done wit' no curl
You are the only one (One, one, one)
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
[Verse 2]
Crazy wild love making, we already did
Shit, that's why we got four kids
Romantic, our parenthood we planned it
On the QE2 to England, cross the Atlantic
Respect, you don't have to demand
It's like you got the perfect husband and your friends can't stand it
Especially when I watch the kids
And when you come home I ain't trying to find out what you did
It flips they lid, 'cause they looking for the player
A little boy trying to pay theirs cell phones and pagers
But wit' me you living with the savior
We be up in the temple of hip-hop, or chilling with the mayor
I thank the creator, we don't need what they handing out
This is what your man is about, it's like
Peace and much love, trust and respect
Your friends may have diamonds but they ain't get that yet
They may have the [?] and cars and private jets
But all they're really good for is sex, uh
[Chorus]
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
In my heart you are that number one girl
You are the one (One, one, one)
Even when your hair ain't done wit' no curl
You are the only one (One, one, one)
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
[Verse 3]
Yo, we be hanging out late night at Denny's
Having conversations about every and any
Many people want what we got
A relationship that just keeps getting hot like hip-hop
You know I'm not the regular guy, you know I can't be compared
You know when the drama comes I ain't scared
My name rings bells in the street
You can say my name in any hood your protection is complete
Thugs be right on their feet, saying "What
Your man is Kris? You don't worry, Miss"
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
But most of the time you're with me and the kids
Mind at ease, chilling out at Chucky Cheese's
These are my kids, I know what their need is
I know what the doctor bill in school tuition fee is
My daughter, I know who she is
And all my sons know exactly what being free is
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
No, you might not get the drop-top three
But all your kids wanna be like me
They father, and even when times are getting harder
There's only one name you could trust, Kris Parker
[Outro]
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
Uh, uh, uh, yeah
Uh
Uh, send this out to you
You and yours, word
Uh
It's that time y'all
That's word
Lemme ring it
Let me tell you right now and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
In case you ain't know, check it
Let me tell you right not and the whole world
You are the only one (One, one)
