[Verse 1: Kaleem] Uh, Look ain't nobody perfect I know you heard it a million times and thats real We all try and earn it But behind curtains we lie and cheat and we steal This ain't on purpose, its just life Things happen we move on We focus on trying to do right Everything left is considered wrong Young man he struggle Fam need to eat so he hustle Mama doing all she can But it won't cut it so he working double Plus dad left and yeah he gone Never really understood that Tring be a man all on his own Huh..
