Cracks In Mr. Perfect |
| After this song you gon love me for my honesty |
| Or you gon' hate me for being me |
| One of the two is gon' happen, but all that I can be is what I am and who I am |
| Chasing women when I should be recording |
| Invite a couple then I invite some more in |
| Next thing you know it’s three in the morning and I’ve only done one song |
| 20k on champagne in the club, then 20k more just because |
| That’s 40k in three hours but everybody watching my section |
| So it’s alright, I know it may sound silly to you |
| Truthfully it silly to me too, but that’s what makes this song so true |
| (here's the truth) |
| I’m a little irresponsible most of the time |
| I’m a man of my word but only when I ain’t lying |
| I say I’m not a hater but I hate to see you shine |
| Especially if your shine is outshining mine |
| I wanna be faithful but I keep running into dimes |
| And they make it so easy so it’s hard to do right |
| The image I portray you making people judge a book |
| But if they really took the time to look |
| Then they would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| They would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| So they would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| Ooh they would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| I ain’t got a condom here, oh no |
| And too lazy to run to the store |
| But you just met her three hours ago, says the angel on my shoulder |
| But the devil he can talk real loud |
| And of my decision I’m not proud |
| But by the grace of god I’m here right now healthy and getting older |
| So it’s alright, I know it may sound reckless to you |
| Truthfully it’s reckless to me too, but that’s what makes this song so true |
| (here's the truth) |
| I’m a little irresponsible most of the time |
| I’m a man of my word but only when I ain’t lying |
| I say I’m not a hater but I hate to see you shine |
| Especially if your shine is outshining mine |
| I wanna be faithful but I keep running into dimes |
| And they make it so easy so it’s hard to do right |
| The image I portray you making people judge a book |
| But if they really took the time to look |
| Then they would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| They would see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| I do a lot of stupid shit |
| Hoping I never have to pay for it |
| It’s like I’ve become more of an idiot |
| With every extra million I get |
| I thank god for my family and my crew cause I can be a lot to put up with |
| Much love to the people that don’t mind the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| (now let it marinate) |
| They could see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| Ooh you can see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| You could see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| Said you could see the cracks in Mr. Perfect |
| And in the end they all learned a valuable lesson |
| Perfection, it’s just glorified opinion |
| When in the grand scheme of things it’s our imperfections that truly make us |
| perfect |
| So do yourself a favour, find the beauty in your cracks |
| Enjoy the album |
