K-Rino - Imperfect lyrics

How can I perfect myself
I just wanna learn the ways
Many chapters in the Book of Life
You gotta turn the page lying and chicanery
No more living dangerously
You ain't with me every day so you
Don't see the change in me
Yeah it's been a long road
Evil got a stronghold
They say I ain't perfect
Tell me something that I don't know
Running tryna make up ground
Ain't no time to play around
Every time I plan my rise
Others plot to take me down
Yeah man it's a dirty game
Got them words from Murder One
Any time I'm 'bout to judge
I think about the dirt I done
I'ma try to find the top
Whether people ride or not


Some say they have no regrets
I can't lie I got a lot
Keep your ignorant opinions
See I don't need none of them
There's only ten or twelve people I trust
And you not one of them
I knew that I'd be criticised
Slandered with opposing talk
So why would I complain about a
Path that I chose to walk?

Made mistakes while tryna build
I'm not perfect, but I still
Keep my focus, keep my pride
Don't allow no hate inside
I took some chances to prevail
Some would work out, some would fail
But in the end though none agree
When y'all are gone I'll still be me

It's getting harder to survive
All you wanna do is hide
Wished that you could make it stop
Contemplated suicide
If you that stupid, try it
There won't be no intervention
Some people need help for real
You just tryna get attention
Put my demons on a page, exorcise 'em vocally
People criticize me daily
Who the hell you supposed to be?
Judge me all the way through
Hateful and ungrateful
Ridiculing me for tryna drop
Knowledge and save you
The damn nerve of you
I did that 'cause I loved you
Always walked among the people
Never stood above you
My brain had no piece of time
Tryna write some decent lines
Every move I made up in this shit
I had the streets in mind
Never changed scenery
Some hate me instinctively
You think I lose sleep worrying about
What people think of me?
Lot of people know the truth
Most of 'em just scared to tell it
Observing my soul
I guess they mad because I didn't sell it

Made mistakes while tryna build
I'm not perfect, but I still
Keep my focus, keep my pride
Don't allow no hate inside
I took some chances to prevail
Some would work out, some would fail
But in the end though none agree
When y'all are gone I'll still be me

You say that my work is worthless, in vain
Not worth a damn
Well I guess there's plenty artist
Doing better than I am
With way more money, way more power
None of them you tryna touch
But, if I'm so irrelevant
Why the hell I'm on your mind so much?
In your eyes
Governments and dirty cops do not apply
Dragon growling at you
Why the hell you tryna swat a fly?
Y'all don't wanna unify, to
You I've done nothing, dude
I ain't poisoning the food
I ain't shooting up no schools
I ain't selling dope and guns
I ain't stealing from the poor
You must be a undercover agent
Who you working for?
Go at me, I'll go at you
Make sure that you tell 'em that
Any time you see success
You'll see where the jealous at

Made mistakes while tryna build
I'm not perfect, but I still
Keep my focus, keep my pride
Don't allow no hate inside
I took some chances to prevail
Some would work out, some would fail
But in the end though none agree
When y'all are gone I'll still be me
