Lyrics
[Intro]
Anybody ever been here?
I just want to take a little time and speak my piece
[Verse 1]
Every day is a mad race movin' at a fast pace, ya'll
Never seem to get a break, never seem to get away, no
If it ain't working hard it's being a dad or mom
I'll be the first to admit of neglecting the relationship (With God)
[PreChorus]
Not talking to you (With God)
Or spending time with you (With God)
Like I should
Forgive me, I'll get better
[Chorus]
(I'm not perfect, but I'm trying)
When you needed me there's a few times I did not come running
(I'm not perfect, but I'm working)
When you wanted more, I would give you less, and Lord I'm sorry
(I'm not perfect, but I'm getting closer the more that I know you)
Please give me another chance
(I'm not perfect, but I'm better than I was on yesterday)
[Verse 2]
Every time I think about the times you bailed me out, God
You've been so good to me
I just want to scream and shout
If it ain't a conference call or playing basketball
I may forget to pray, and spend part of my day (With God)
[PreChorus]
Without talking to you (With God)
Never saying "Thank You" (With God)
Like I should
Forgive me, I'll get better
[Chorus]
(I'm not perfect, but I'm trying)
When you needed me there's a few times I did not come running
(I'm not perfect, but I'm working)
When you wanted more, I would give you less, and Lord I'm sorry
(I'm not perfect, but I'm getting closer the more that I know you)
Please give me another chance
(I'm not perfect, but I'm better than I was on yesterday)
[Bridge]
I'm a different man
Doing the best I can
When you needed me there's a few times I did not come running
When you wanted more, I would give you less, and Lord I'm sorry
You're the one I love the most
(So how can) I forget to say I love You? (Always)
Ooh, how You looked beyond my pride inside and blessed me (Anyway)
And loved me
(I'm not perfect)
You gave Your life for me
(So how can I) act like I don't hear You? (Always)
Lord, let me come back to You (Anyway)
Forgive me
Forgive me
Lord, I'll never never turn my back on You again
[Chorus]
(I'm not perfect, but I'm trying)
When you needed me there's a few times I did not come running
(I'm not perfect, but I'm working)
When you wanted more, I would give you less, and Lord I'm sorry
(I'm not perfect, but I'm getting closer the more that I know you)
Please give me another chance
(I'm not perfect, but I'm better than I was on yesterday
[Outro]
I'm not perfect, but I'm trying
I'm not perfect, but I'm working
I'm not perfect, but I'm getting closer the more that I know you
I'm not perfect, but I'm better than I was on yesterday)
