Imperfect





"My hair's a wreck, mascara runs
My feet get dirty and my skin burns in the sun
My lips they bleed, but I still sing my song
Takes me a minute to admit it when I'm wrong
Pretty is as pretty does but pretty is not my thing

This is what you get, this is who I am
Take me now or leave me anyway you can
Sometimes I trip and fall, but I know where I stand
&If you're thinking about changing my direction
Don't mess with imperfection

My back is weak, but my will is true
Got good intentions but I never follow through
I say too much, don't know when to leave
In case you're looking, that's my heart there on my sleeve
Ego trips and stupid slip-ups, I'm a mess but

This is what you get, this is who I am
Take me nor or leave me anyway you can
Sometimes I trip and fall, but I know where I stand
&If you're thinking about changing my direction
Don't mess with imperfection

Scratched and bruised, a little used, but baby I work fine
You might call me damaged goods, but I'm one of a kind





I'm really no longer afraid to walk away, you can keep your drugs, and I'll keep my strength. I finally see it clearly. I'm finally free. No more dwelling, no more tears, just happiness. And if you would like to get in my way of my happiness, then so be it, but I'll kick you out of my way and out of my life. 
Love the life you live, its a beautiful thing. Don't try to mess with other peoples lives. Just be happy with your own.
