Phora - In a Perfect World Lyrics


Ain't nobody perfectAin't nobody perfectAin't nobody perfectAin't nobody perfectSee, in a perfect world it would all be so simpleSometimes simple isn't worth itCause all the hard times I've been throughMade me the man I am todayAnd I ain't nowhere close to perfectBut I'm perfectly fine with that, I'm still breathingSo many scars and wounds that'll never healI'm still bleeding, I know you see 'emAll those imperfections in yourselfYou're just stressing it too much, but life's a lesson in itselfOne day we'll learn what it meansOne day we'll learn to be freeBaby, I've been trying to separate my one's and my kneesBut what does perfect mean?Lately I've been asking myselfIf I paint you this picture maybe you'll answer yourselfYou see, a perfect world to me is no more violenceNo more gunshots at night, homie and no more sirensNo more kids losing their life too soon and no drunk drivingI seen it a lot happen way too many times and we ain't tryingWe ain't trying hard enough to change it, broken hearts and hatredA perfect world to me is a world free of this racistsSo who are you to judge a person by the color of skinHow hard is it just to smile and treat each other as kinI wish, there was a world where our children could play outsideWithout a drive-by, curving and watching straight bullets flyBut why, why does it feel like we're not ready?When I talk about change, manWhy I feel like they don't get me?Well, I guess I ain't perfect enoughOne day the money and jewels gon' be worthless to usWe gonna value ourselves based of the love in our heartsNot the cash in our pocketsI'm thinking what if we start a perfect worldWhere the music ain't downgrading our womenAnd they stop degrading themselvesThey lost faith in our womenTrust me, I'm the one to judge, can't stand the way that I'm livin'We all dream of that perfect place and man, I'm way beyond visionSee, I can hear it, taste it and feel itThe scent of it is so potentPerfect like your first love before your heart was brokenPerfect like the sound of crashing waves in the oceanIt's perfect like the sound of music when you play it while smokingSo many, perfect imperfections in this world, still I love it hereOnly 21 and I hope to make it another yearBut if not, my soul will be perfectly freeShe might not be perfect to you, but man she's perfect to meYours TrulyAin't nobody perfectBut we're all worth this lifeDon't matter where we're goingAs long as we're living rightAin't nobody perfectBut we're all worth this lifeDon't matter where we're goingAs long as we're living rightWe only got this one time, one timeBefore we're living in timeWe only got this one time, one timeBefore we're living in timeWe only got this one time, one timeBefore we're living in timeWe only got this one time, one timeBefore we're living in timeAin't nobody perfectYou see, the very end of itI didn't know where I wasAll I know it was peacefulAlmost like a place nothing could go wrongA place so perfectI've always imagined a place like thisEver since I was young, I wasNever really able to sleepMy mom always told me:"Close your eyes, picture the waves crashingImagine yourself there with no worries"That's the only thing that ever really helpsSo much going on in this worldSometimes I wonder if we were able to think ourOwn heaven into existenceWhat would mine be like?Well, I think I finally found itBetter yet, I think it's been with me all along
