I’m the One Lyrics – Victoria Monét

[Chorus]
The chorus reiterates the speaker's conviction that they are the one who could make the person truly happy and fulfilled. The repetition of the phrase "I'm the one" reinforces their belief in their suitability as a partner. The line "You would've already won if you knew I was the one" suggests that the person is missing out on something great by not recognizing the speaker's value.

[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the speaker reflects on the possibility that even if the person made a list of desired qualities in a partner, they still wouldn't realize that the speaker fulfills those criteria. The speaker metaphorically introduces divine intervention, with God and angels involved, to emphasize the extraordinary nature of their connection. Despite the strong imagery, the person continues to elude the speaker's affections, and the question arises whether fear is preventing them from seeing what's in front of them.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus is repeated, underscoring the speaker's frustration and the theme of being overlooked despite their strong feelings and belief in their compatibility.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats again, emphasizing the speaker's conviction that they are the missing piece in the person's life, and their potential to bring happiness and fulfillment.

[Outro]
The outro reinforces the theme of longing for love and validation. The repetition of "Love me, love me, love me, don't you love me?" captures the essence of the speaker's emotional plea and desire for reciprocated affection.
