1by1 Lyrics

[Verse 1: RAYE]
I wake again
You got me up to my old ways again
You know I be saving first place for him
You give me the feeling I want, uh
So safe with him
Baby got me feeling so safe again
Baby I can never feel the same again
When you do the thing that I want

[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
I have got to be honest
See you there and I want it
Hold my body boy, pull me close
One by one
You have taken me higher
We got no Bic or no lighter
Think I'm ready, I'm letting go

[Chorus: RAYE]
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
One by one, two by two
Was lost and now I'm found
Wasn't looking, wasn't searching
You came without a sound
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
Let 'em fall, let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall down
[Verse 2: Maleek Berry]
Oh, whoa, yeah yeah, uh
Girl, you came again
You're feelin' some type of way again
And I don't know what to say again
I feel like my love can draw you in
Now you're falling down
You want to know if I'm all in now
If I'm out in the night time crawlin' now
You're the only one I'm lovin' now

[Bridge: RAYE & Maleek Berry]
Pickin' up when I call you
You're bailing off the line right now
Talk to me when I'm feelin' low
Feel like I can take you higher right now, now
Tell me now if you're all in
Me runnin' through your mind right now, now
'Cause if you think then I need to know
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na

[Chorus: RAYE]
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
One by one, two by two
Was lost and now I'm found
Wasn't looking, wasn't searching
You came without a sound
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
Let 'em fall, let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall down
[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
I have got to be honest
See you there and I want it
Hold my body boy, pull me close
You have taken me higher (Higher)
We got no weed or no lighter for ya
Think I'm ready, I'm letting go

[Chorus: RAYE]
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
One by one, two by two
Was lost and now I'm found
Wasn't looking, wasn't searching
You came without a sound
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
Let 'em fall, let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall down
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall
Let 'em fall, let 'em fall
One by one, two by two
My walls come falling down
So let 'em fall down

What did Rudimental say about "1by1"?
Genius Answer

Rudimental told Clash Music,

This track came out of a session we did with Raye in London – we actually wrote it super quickly. We then got Maleek Berry to come down and lend his vocals on a verse. It just has a really cool vibe.
