Why does Earth only have oxygen?

It doesn't; Earth has many other gasses. Our atmosphere is mostly nitrogen; only about 21% is oxygen.

It may be that you intended to ask, why does only Earth have free oxygen in its atmosphere, while other planets in the solar system don't. Free oxygen is produced by green plants (by a process called photosynthesis) and green plants grow only on Earth.
