I was given to the world as a zero One man Seven billion people hell bent on being heroes Nowadays Were anything but equal If you give a man a break Then he blend in with greedy people But if you throw a man a bone Help him fend on his own Theres no point in being stubborn You can't do this alone An when your life is getting cushy Don't forget about your roots You wanna step inside my shoes Bring boots I been caught up in this twister of emotion Out my comfort zone There's more to life then wasting all your money on patron Cuz when its gone , there's nothing but the bottle And the things that you were saying when your drunk are hard to swallow Growing up I guess I never really had a role model sh**.... Yes I did I just never listened when he spoke Keep control of situations you provoke You wanna be the funny guy then people think that your a joke Keep your circle small An put your ego in check Give your elders some respect Nobody likes a co*ky prick Don't lose sight of what you have While you search for extraordinary Happy ever afters often end up being short and scary Hook: I know I can't Be Perfect But tell me What the f** is perfect anyway I used to wish for money every single day But all the paper in the world Couldn't save me An I know That no matter where I go I'll remember everything I learned along the road N I know I know You told me that I gotta grow up But imagine if I blow up My life's a story Often asked of what I'm thinking I'm open to open this book Be careful if you listen My perspective got you feeling like your life is pa**ing rapidly The air it must be fresher on the 32nd balcony Its wicked being weird so make the most of abnormality N don't think for a second were alone in side our galaxy Happiness ain't found in living lavishly Sorry to take the gravity that's holding your reality N smash it Find something worth holding love it savagely Its simple really eat - sleep and f** that's our anatomy Yea We all the same damn people whether we live in the streets In a refrigerator box or a penthouse suite
If your a bum pick your feet up Are you happy as a piece of sh**? There's more to life then bumming cigarettes You don't have to be a hobo to be ignorant Your options are infinite dammit, your potential is jus limitless But you been gamin for a while now And success is just a figment Your still sitting on your moms couch Don't get it twisted I ain't starving for the riches If i found a genies lamp cash wouldn't be one of my wishes Hook I know I can't Be Perfect But tell me What the f** is perfect anyway I used to wish for money every single day But all the paper in the world Couldn't save me An I know That no matter where I go I'll remember everything I learned along the road N I know I know You told me that I gotta grow up But imagine if I blow up Lately, I'm happy to be living I love doing crazy sh** but dam man I hate getting stitches I been wasting time don't know what the hell I'm thinking Cuz it pa**es in a split don't waste a millisecond blinking Yea I manage, dammit I know I take alot for granted My roots are running deep here you could even say I'm planted But other days its like I'm from a completely different planet You ask explanations but I don't even understand it I'm just being me Twenty threes exactly where I need to be Getting moneys easy Id just rather do it legally Spark up a career n maybe I can change my scenery Believe me it ain't easy yea the better life ain't free to me Until i cease to be .. try my best to never sleep Big bucket list I gotta check off People I gotta meet N if it don't then its fine *being positive is key I'm doing everything I can Before I flat line Hook: I know I can't Be Perfect But tell me What the f** is perfect anyway I used to wish for money every single day But all the paper in the world Couldn't save me An I know That no matter where I go I'll remember everything I learned along the road N I know I know You told me that I gotta grow up But imagine if I blow up Youtube : http://youtu.be/I0JwZcv6nW4
