I Am One Lyrics
Hello my sister, did you make a mistake?
There's life and in your belly and it's too much to take
Hey there, my friend, I heard of your dad
He was a hero when the towers were crashed
(I am one)
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
I'll be your strength and I won't let you fall
And together we'll find one more
Hey little girl, little Indian girl
Can I give you some bread and a piece of my world?
Look to my fingers, there is hope in my hands
Come to my pocket and I'll give what I can
(I am one)
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
I'll be your strength and I won't let you fall
And together we'll find one more
If one can do anything
Then two can change the world
If one can make a difference
Then together we're so much more
There was a flood not long ago
It took my people and it tattered my soul
(I am one)
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
I'll be your strength and I won't let you fall
You may not have much
But alone I am one without you
There's life and in your belly and it's too much to take
Hey there, my friend, I heard of your dad
He was a hero when the towers were crashed
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
And together we'll find one more
Can I give you some bread and a piece of my world?
Look to my fingers, there is hope in my hands
Come to my pocket and I'll give what I can
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
And together we'll find one more
Then two can change the world
If one can make a difference
Then together we're so much more
It took my people and it tattered my soul
And I'm reaching for you
(I am one)
And together we're two
You may not have much
But alone I am one without you

Sorry for being weirdly formal, just wanted to clarify everything. I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!! I am a dancer and a singer and have rarely heard anything more beautiful. A group of my friends did this song for their competition dance and it was honestly incredible. Chrisette Michele is a great singer and she is so cool. LOVE THIS SONG!

Is this a religious song?? I get the impression that the narrator is God, or at least the narrator is speaking to God.
The chorus especially to me seems to be a message from God to the everyone / anyone ... perhaps the verses are those who God is delivering the message to??
The reference to the flood could be Biblical ... or is it simply referring to Hurricane Katrina??
Maybe it is not God but the embodiment of the USA?? (Most countries are referred to as Her) ...
