| i know that i’m not close to perfect
|
| that’s the way it’s got to be
|
| if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
|
| how am i gonna see
|
| everything that i have dreamed of
|
| everything i plan to do
|
| im gonna take it day by day, and know it all starts with you
|
| and it starts with you, and it’s not a lie,
|
| but it’s far from true
|
| it don’t make sense, like i’m missing something
|
| like close friend turned distant cousin
|
| i can relate to most of what they’ve been through
|
| matter of fact, i’m right there with you
|
| i been there when it didn’t really work out
|
| felt that pain the second you get turned out
|
| i got lifted, on my feet again
|
| it’s a cold world till you feel the heat again
|
| it’s deep within the chambers of my heart
|
| it was born with the thought that we made it from the start
|
| i’m here to the finish line we just diminish
|
| time ticks on and it don’t get replenished
|
| no breaks, high stakes and sacrifices
|
| we all keep carving the ____
|
| i know that i’m not close to perfect
|
| that’s the way it’s got to be
|
| if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
|
| how am i gonna see
|
| everything that i have dreamed of
|
| everything i plan to do
|
| im gonna take it day by day, and know it all starts with you
|
| the world keeps trying to take from me
|
| the scared money don’t make money
|
| life is sweet, but death takes the cake
|
| 'cause you can’t learn shit if you don’t make mistakes
|
| so we bounce back, every single time
|
| speak the truth to crush any little lie
|
| so strange how we all walk paths
|
| that be far from this game but they still seem to intertwine
|
| some days kinda feel real tense, confused, and all stressed
|
| care less if you live or die
|
| one thing that for sure i could never hide
|
| is the thunderstorm in my belly when it’s dinner time
|
| so we just push past it
|
| every day i’m reborn from the ashes
|
| my passion dictates my actions
|
| this right here is the risk, take ____
|
| i know that i’m not close to perfect
|
| that’s the way it’s got to be
|
| if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
|
| how am i gonna see
|
| everything that i have dreamed of
|
| everything i plan to do
|
| im gonna take it day by day, and know it all starts with you
|
| and it ends with me, doing me, seeing things i was meant to be
|
| like following dreams, never borrowing things
|
| on track while the rest stay swallowing schemes
|
| i ain’t perfect, actually far from it
|
| i’d rather stay strong on my own than to start learning
|
| it’s bugged though, i know we all want something
|
| some of us won’t stop until it all starts crumbling (?)
|
| of who we will never know, they never did try
|
| in a dog eat dog world it’s live or let die
|
| i’d rather fail than to never have tried
|
| cause truth stands the test, every time
|
| i won’t forget though, my memory’s fine
|
| and i turn a deaf ear when they telling me lies
|
| it’s unconditional, i gotta move fast
|
| ain’t nothing gonna stop me, i promise you that |
