[Intro] Ain't nobody perfect Ain't nobody perfect Ain't nobody perfect Ain't nobody perfect [Verse] See, in a perfect world it would all be so simple Sometimes simple isn't worth it Cause all the hard times I've been through Made me the man I am today And I ain't nowhere close to perfect But I'm perfectly fine with that, I'm still breathing So many scars and wounds that'll never heal I'm still bleeding, I know you see 'em All those imperfections in yourself You're just stressing it too much, but life's a lesson in itself One day we'll learn what it means One day we'll learn to be free Baby, I've been trying to separate my wants and my needs But what does perfect mean? Lately I've been asking myself If I paint you this picture maybe you'll answer yourself You see, a perfect world to me is no more violence No more gunshots at night, homie and no more Sirens No more kids losing their life too soon and no drunk driving I seen it a lot happen way too many times and we ain't trying We ain't trying hard enough to change it, broken hearts and hatred A perfect world to me is a world free of this racists So who are you to judge a person by the color of skin How hard is it just to smile and treat each other as kin I wish, there was a world where our children could play outside Without a drive-by, curving and watching straight bullets fly But why, why does it feel like we're not ready? When I talk about change, man Why I feel like they don't get me? Well, I guess I ain't perfect enough One day the money and j**els gon' be worthless to us We gonna value ourselves based of the love in our hearts Not the cash in our pockets I'm thinking what if we start a perfect world Where the music ain't downgrading our women And they stop degrading themselves
They lost faith in our women Trust me, I'm the one to judge, can't stand the way that I'm livin' We all dream of that perfect place and man, I'm way beyond vision See, I can hear it, taste it and feel it The scent of it is so potent Perfect like your first love before your heart was broken Perfect like the sound of crashing waves in the ocean It's perfect like the sound of music when you play it while smoking So many, perfect imperfections in this world, still I love it here Only 21 and I hope to make it another year But if not, my soul will be perfectly free She might not be perfect to you, but man she's perfect to me Yours Truly [Outro] Ain't nobody perfect But we're all worth this life Don't matter where we're going As long as we're living right Ain't nobody perfect But we're all worth this life Don't matter where we're going As long as we're living right We only got this one time, one time Before we're living in time We only got this one time, one time Before we're living in time We only got this one time, one time Before we're living in time We only got this one time, one time Before we're living in time Ain't nobody perfect You see, the very end of it I didn't know where I was All I know it was peaceful Almost like a place nothing could go wrong A place so perfect I've always imagined a place like this Ever since I was young, I was Never really able to sleep My mom always told me: "Close your eyes, picture the waves crashing Imagine yourself there with no worries" That's the only thing that ever really helps So much going on in this world Sometimes I wonder if we were able to think our Own heaven into existence What would mine be like? Well, I think I finally found it Better yet, I think it's been with me all along
