One By One
T.J. Cases Lyrics

Like sweet morning dew
He found her attractive like the fresh, sweet morning dew

I took one look at you
He was drawn to her from the moment he saw her

And it was plain to see
He could easily tell that she was meant for him

You were my destiny
He believed that they were meant to be together always

You're all (you're all)
She was everything to him

I need (all I need)
She provided him with everything he required

To get by (to get by)
He needed her to get through life's struggles and obstacles

Shorty I'm there for you anytime you need me
He promised to always be there for her when she needs him

For real girl, it's me in your world, believe me
He assured her that he is committed to her and her world.

Nothin' make a man feel better than a woman
Having a good woman by a man's side uplifts him

Queen with a crown that be down for whatever
She was his queen and he knew she could stand by him no matter the situation

Back when I was nothin'
He was nothing before he met her

You made a brother feel like he was somethin'
She brought out the best in him and made him feel important

That's why I'm with you to this day boo
The reason he is still with her is that she makes him feel special

Even when the skies were gray
She stood by him even in difficult times

You would rub me on my back and say, "Baby it'll be okay"
She comforted him during his tough times and encouraged him to face challenges head-on

Now that's real to a brother like me, baby
He valued her love and support because it was real

Never ever give my- away and keep it tight, a'ight
He promised to be loyal and hold their relationship together

And I'ma walk these dogs so we can live
He was committed to making a living so they can have a good life together

In a phat crib with thousands of kids
He envisioned a life with her in a beautiful home with lots of children

Word life you don't need a ring to be my wife
He didn't require a ring for them to be officially married

Just be there for me and I'ma make sure we
He would take care of her as long as she was by his side

Be livin' in the lap of luxury
He imagined that they would live in luxury as they enjoyed life together

I'm realizing that you didn't have to wit' me
He recognized that she chose to be with him despite his shortcomings

But you did, now I'm going all out kid
Her decision made him want to be better and do more for her

And I got mad love to give, you my nigga
He had so much love that he felt the urge to express it to her

I got a love jones for your body and your skin tone
He was captivated by her physical features

Five minutes alone I'm already on the bone
He would become sexually aroused by just being alone with her

Plus I love the fact you got a mind of your own
He valued that she had her own mind and could think for herself

No need to shop around you got the good- at home
He didn't have to search for anyone else, she had everything he needed and wanted in a partner

Even if I'm locked up North you in the world
Even while he was away, she remained in his thoughts

Rockin' three-fourths of cloth
She didn't have to show off her body to be beautiful

Never showin' your stuff off, boo
He loved her for her modesty and her inner beauty

It be true me for you that's how it is
He was true to her, and they were meant for each other

I can be your Knower, you can be my Wiz
He was willing to be her protector and provider, and she could be his support system

Then I can be your sun, you can be my earth
He saw himself as a source of light and she the foundation of their relationship

Resurrect the God through birth
Together they could bring about a beautiful new beginning

Loving your whole steeze, it be in there boo
He loved her entire being, and it was evident in the way she carried herself

On top of that you got the good power-U
In addition to her physical and mental attributes, she had the power to motivate and inspire him

You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
She was everything he needed and he was willing to stand by her side

If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real wit'chu (you're all)
If she continued to be honest with him, he would do the same in return

To get by (to get by)
They needed the honesty in order to work through any issues that may arise and help each other get through life's struggles
