Nobody’s perfect

A lot of us live on the surface

Digging deep requires strength and to acquire it you must have courage
I know you don’t understand right now what to do or what’s your purpose
But you will and until then I won’t let nobody hurt you
I know you feel alone and sometimes you don’t feel deserving
But you are special you are loved, you are gifted, and you are worthy
You gon lose a lot of people and a lot of faith along this journey
But it’s important that you trust yourself and that you still continue learning
Look in the mirror and love yourself even if you hurting
Keep planting seeds and watering your garden promise you gon flourish
Don’t let nobody feed you bullshit only take what keeps you nourished
And if they play with you stand up for yourself don’t do yourself disservice
You got a big heart baby,
and with that comes a lot of pain
You gon have days where you feel insane inside and
you feel drained
But pick yourself up no matter what you lose or what you gain
Don’t ever get your feet tangled in someone else’s roots you can’t maintain

(Hook)
Somewhere along the way I got lost but I found myself
Made it out the dark on my own despite the cards I’m dealt
Can’t nobody take me away from me
I’m just tryina be a better me
I ain’t worried bout what they say
They couldn’t be me anyday

2nd verse

Nobody’s perfect
But I know that you try
I feel you when you hurting, I wipe your tears when you cry
I know that you’ll protect me, even with fear in your eyes
I can feel it in your stomach whenever people tell you lies
Sometimes you don’t listen but I be tryina let you know
I’m really proud of how far you’ve come I’ve really watched you grow
Into the woman I was always tryina be
Even though you forget sometimes I be tryna help you see
You are beautiful, you are strong and you are kind even with the tough exterior you often hide behind
I know you scared to fail and wish that you could press rewind
But I know your intentions and the way you were designed
Even if people hate you, you could never be defined
As fake, a snake, disloyal, lame or even blind
You’ve given yourself to people who don’t care bout what’s inside
They only used you for your body and couldn’t keep up they disguise
Only you and I really know how many times
You could have given up on me but you stuck right by my side
Some people never make it to meet who they needed in time
I’m glad you stuck around to find out you grew up to be mine

(Hook)
Somewhere along the way I got lost but I found myself
Made it out the dark on my own despite the cards I’m dealt
Can’t nobody take me away from me
I’m just tryina be a better me
I ain’t worried bout what they say
They couldn’t be me anyday
