Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Back to the basics
Feelin' like I can't get out of my own goddamn way
Feelin' like I'ma be alright if I just take things one day a time
Feelin' like I'm wastin' all of mines and fallin' out my prime
Feel like the people just don't feel me no more
Feel like I done lost more than I can gain
And thangs just don't feel the same
I play the game, I been losin'
I'm on the edge, holdin' loosely like a leaf
That flew and landed in the rain
Inner peace just ain't enough, I need the whole thang
Most days I ain't even got in my conscience
'Bout figured out how to cope without havin' hope for tomorrow
Can't even look in the mirror when I'm swimmin' in sorrow
Livin' hollow, can't even tell you who the hell I am
When I follow these feelin's they got me feelin' so alone
That I done cut off my ****, don't wanna deal with the fam
I can't talk to my girl, that shit kill me
To watch her tears just fill as I say don't worry
Shit, you could feel the pain through the horns
Summin' like the seasons it be here and it be gone
Sister told me she listened to that, I told the storm
When she goin' through her days and pops told me that's just the norm
I ain't makin' excuses, I know I gotta do this shit
Life is a reminder that we all be goin' through some shit
Told my brother Phoniks that I need some help
To get through the shit
So in conclusion, I gotta keep movin'
[Verse 2]
'Cause we all works in progress, nobody's perfect
Hey, I tell you I'm a work in progress 'cause I ain't perfect
Ain't nobody got the answers so I question so much shit everyday
I was taught right from wrong but still it's hard to obey
'Cause I ain't perfect, nobody's perfect
[Verse 3]
I don't hold no hatred for anybody who played me
I ain't got no feelin's for women I made mistakes with
One of my exes and old friends done had a baby
Crazy how life can put people in different places
It's never how you think, it's all about how you embrace it
Back in the day, knew was the one I'd spend my days with
Back in the day, knew you was my ****, defended you
Thought it was till infinity, but it all had a limit
Everything considered, I hope the best of y'all for the rest of your days
Hope that y'all know more sweet than bitter
Hope y'all teach lil' man to make his life so bigger
Than ours ever was
True shit, it don't get any realer
Me, I'm just a sinner with newer problems
The ones in the past done passed me up
So I dropped 'em, regret done fell out my pocket
It ain't all good, but it's all good
Ask me how i am, I just say I'm a work in progress
[Verse 4]
'Cause we all works in progress, nobody's perfect
I tell you I'm a work in progress
'Cause I ain't perfect
Ain't nobody got the answers so I question so much shit everyday
I was taught right from wrong but still it's hard to obey
'Cause I ain't perfect, nobody's perfect
Nobody's perfect, nobody's perfect
Nobody perfect
Never been perfect
