Lyrics
Yeah
Wish I could be perfect
Always in tune
Never be uptight
And never lose
Wish I could be perfect
For me and you
The idea of perfection, antonym dysfunctionality
And it's got me here stressin, rewritin' my personality
But you know when I close my eyes, you know I always see
The version of myself I wanna be (uh)
Trynna find my way out, I'm done making my way back down
Lost, in a faceless crowd
Lovin' everyone but myself that comes around (ah)
Trynna dot my I's and cross my t's
But you see, that doesn't mean nothin' to me
Cuz I'm learnin' nothin's wrong with dysfunctionality, and it's okay sometimes for life to get crazy (ah)
To be honest witcha, perfectly honest, perfection isn't a life worth livin' (isn't a life worth livin)
You gotta know that sometimes, you're gonna fall down
But it's okay as long as you get back up
Brush it off your shoulder, go and talk your stuff
I know that you'll come around
But for now I'm trynna find my (trynna make my way down) trynna find my way
Trynna find my way down (down)
Trynna find my way down (down)
Back, I'll come back around
When I do the things, you know I make the sound (oh)
Trynna find my way out
(Wish I could be perfect, always in tune)
I'm done making my way back down
(Never be uptight, and never lose)
Lost in a faceless crowd, lovin' everyone but myself that comes around
(Wish I could be perfect, for me and you)
Trynna find my way out, goin up, don't want make my way back down
(Wish I could be perfect, always in tune, never be uptight, and never lose)
I was lost, but now I'm found
(Wish I could be perfect, for me and you)
Better then I was, the last time around (ah)
You don't gotta be anybody but yourself
You don't gotta be anybody but yourself (ah)
Yeah
In my mind
Take some time, time
In my mind, take some time, time
It'll be fine (mhmm)
