[00:00.00]
[00:18.46]i know that i’m not close to perfect
[00:20.37]that’s the way it’s got to be
[00:22.83]if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
[00:25.28]how am i gonna see
[00:27.48]everything that i have dreamed of
[00:29.88]everything i plan to do
[00:32.13]i’m gonna take it day by day, and know it all
[00:36.12]starts with you
[00:40.41]
[00:56.55]and it starts with you, and it’s not a lie,
[01:00.26]but it’s far from true
[01:01.91]it don’t make sense,
[01:02.87]like i’m missing something
[01:04.18]like close friend turned distant cousin
[01:06.45]i can relate to most of what they’ve been through
[01:09.14]matter of fact, i’m right there with you
[01:11.47]i been there when it didn’t really work out
[01:14.10]felt that pain the second you get turned out
[01:16.51]i got lifted, on my feet again
[01:18.94]it’s a cold world till you feel the heat again
[01:21.34]it’s deep within the chambers of my heart
[01:23.43]it was born with the thought that we made it from the start
[01:25.86]i’m here to the finish line we just diminish
[01:28.34]time ticks on and it don’t get replenished
[01:30.38]no breaks, high stakes and sacrifices
[01:33.02]we all keep carving the mistake
[01:34.72]i know that i’m not close to perfect
[01:37.20]that’s the way it’s got to be
[01:39.34]if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
[01:42.19]how am i gonna see
[01:44.38]everything that i have dreamed of
[01:46.91]everything i plan to do
[01:49.08]i’m gonna take it day by day, and know
[01:52.27]it all starts with you
[01:55.38]the world keeps trying to take from me
[01:57.94]the scared money don’t make money
[01:59.77]life is sweet, but death takes the cake
[02:01.88]’cause you can’t learn shit
[02:03.21]if you don’t make mistakes
[02:04.34]so we bounce back, every single time
[02:06.79]speak the truth to crush any little lie
[02:09.30]so strange how we all walk paths that be far
[02:11.81]from this game but they still seem to intertwine
[02:13.95]some days kinda feel real tense, confused, and all stressed
[02:17.53]care less if you live or die
[02:18.57]one thing that for sure i could never hide
[02:21.50]is the thunderstorm in my belly when it’s dinner time
[02:23.54]so we just push past it
[02:26.07]every day i’m reborn from the ashes
[02:28.37]my passion dictates my actions
[02:30.88]this right here is the risk takes
[02:33.02]i know that i’m not close to perfect
[02:34.82]that’s the way it’s got to be
[02:37.20]if i ain’t ever tried to make it,
[02:39.79]how am i gonna see
[02:42.27]everything that i have dreamed of
[02:44.51]everything i plan to do
[02:46.94]im gonna take it day by day, and know
[02:49.84]it all starts with you
[02:53.00]and it ends with me, doing me,
[02:55.22]seeing things i was meant to be
[02:57.08]like following dreams, never borrowing things
[02:59.33]on track while the rest stay
[03:00.97]swallowing schemes
[03:01.89]i ain’t perfect, actually far from it
[03:04.29]i’d rather stay strong on my own than to start learning
[03:06.90]it’s bugged though, i know we all want something
[03:09.49]some of us won’t stop until it all starts crumbling of
[03:11.73]who we will never know, they never did try
[03:13.93]in a dog eat dog world it’s live or let die
[03:16.44]i’d rather fail than to never have tried
[03:18.66]cause truth stands the test, every time
[03:20.90]i won’t forget though, my memory’s fine
[03:23.41]and i turn a deaf ear when they telling me lies
[03:25.66]it’s unconditional, i gotta move fast
[03:28.19]ain’t nothing gonna stop me, i promise you that
