The One

I never thought for a million years
That I’d be here talking to you
I guess you gotta make a living
I gotta make one too
Don’t tell me how it went
Just let me know when you’re through
I didn’t agree with it then
And I still don’t now
But it wasn’t my choice to make
We had to make this choice
For our future’s sake
I don’t regret it
I don’t regret anything
Just wish we thought more
About the consequences it would bring
Our relationship is not the same
Because of you
We’re back to square one
I’m conflicted on my point of view
I don’t agree yet it has to be done
I gotta look out for the many
Not just the one

I’m sure lots of people
Visit you on this very same mission
Then there’s the people outside
Opposing their decision
Can’t say I disagree
Just my approach is different
Like I said you gotta job to do
So go out and do your best
Do what’s right for you
And no worries about the rest
I don’t agree yet I know it has to be done
For the sake of the many
Not just the one

Who’s gonna speak for the little one trapped inside
Not knowing the difference
Between his death and his life
I’m not worried about your soul
One day we gonna meet
And you’ll know you were here for good
Your life is not deceit
When I see you again
I’ll try my hardest to explain
That you’re not being sacrificed
For the fortune or the fame
I don’t agree yet I know it has to be done
For the sake of the many
Not just the one
