Supastition - Perfect World lyrics

So with us, we must be beneficial to those
Who have befriended us
Or those whom we have allowed to befriend
If they are making a mistake
It is our duty to tell them that you are
Going wrong here and if we don’t tell
Them we are going to be making an even
Bigger mistake we are going to be responsible

If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world

My life’s been a series of tough lessons
Mistakes, misfortunes, victories, successes
Couple of masterpieces
Couple of rough sketches
Eye opening moments that
Altered my perspective
Cause when the music ends
I discovered what a true friend is
It’s not your fans, record label
Or your crew members
It’s the friends with no
Agendas or minor plots
Who still keep in contact whether
You rhyme or not
Whether you’re signed or not
Whether your last album kindly flopped or
It’s still on Billboard climbing spots
Yes indeed it hurts when you
See people in spurts
Homies disappear then reappear when
You need a verse
When my daughter was hospitalized for a month
Do you think a member of
My old crew called once?
But when they heard I was
Returning with some new music
They sent so many messages
I’m through with you losers
That’s the way a brothers treated
By his own fam?
I’m through with trying to work it out
I’m through with phone rants
I’m reprogrammed, a different Kam
I applaud you as a rapper but
Fuck you as a grown man your records out
They wanna reconcile and do tours
I got a family
What the hell I need a crew for?
To me it doesn’t hold much significance
Maybe we can just discuss our
Differences in perfect world

If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world

There’s a lot of things I gotta
Accept to be in this business
Weighing pros and cons like
A soldier re-enlisting while I was gone
So called friends treated me different
Maybe for me to see it
I truly needed the distance
I left the game fed up
I couldn’t tell you the whereabouts of names
That I shouted out on Chain Letters
That small scale frame was more
Than I had bargained for
Seeing industry friends walk
Through revolving doors
Seeing some producers that you
Helped build a buzz
Treat you like a peasant the
Second they start feeling loved
I guess it’s just a reminder to
Me how real it was
Fame will make a humble man feel godly
When I was on the rise, they was with me
Beside me
But stopped speaking when they reached
The 50’s and Kweli’s
I’m still standing even when they
Abandoned the lesser known
But personally I just felt
Like a stepping stone
And they won’t give a damn about
It ‘til the wealth is gone
I humble myself and tell
‘em "thanks for helping, homes"
Cause regardless I’m an artist
With a platform
When former friends see success I
Still clap for ‘em i speak freely with no
Fear of being blackballed
Cause if it ain’t God then whose
Permission do I ask for?
Truth hurts when the words are thorough
You take offense? We can make amends
Maybe in a perfect world

If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fights
I would make it a perfect world
