I'm Not Perfect

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

We've been through things, feels like

We've been to hell and back

And the ones you've lost, I'd give my life

If I could bring them back

(Bring them back, I'd give my life)

And your self esteem might be low from

What people say (keep holding on)

Hold your head up high, I promise it's gonna be ok (ay, oh hey)

I'm not perfect just like you (I'm not perfect)

So come on let me give you a hug

(Come on let me give you a hug)

I got problems just like you (I got problems)

So don't nobody sit here and judge (just like you)

I'm not perfect just like you (we're gonna stick together)

So come on let me give you a hug (let's stick together)

I got problems just like you (woo, ooh, yeah)

And everybody needs some love

When you're feeling bad, some friends they can't be found

(Look around, look around, be found)

Cause some people love it just to see you

When you're down (down, yeah)

But it's ok, pick yourself up, start over again

(That's what you gotta do)

If you try you will, you will succeed in the end

(The end, I know you will, oh yeah)

I'm not perfect just like you

So come on let me give you a hug (come on and let me give you)

I got problems just like you (I got problems)

So don't nobody sit here and judge (oh, yeah)

I'm not perfect just like you (no, no, no, no)

So come on let me give you a hug

(Come on and let me give you a hug)

I got problems just like you

And everybody needs some love

Shake a hand, shake a hand y'all, come on

(Oh shake somebody's hand)

To every woman, every man y'all, come on

(Oh, to every woman, every man)

Tell a friend, tell a friend y'all

(Ooh, shake a hand with someone)

Cause united we stand y'all

(United we stand, by body we fall)

I'm not perfect just like you

(I'm not perfect, I've been through some things too)

I'm not perfect just like you

I'm not perfect just like you (ohh)

I'm not perfect just like you (ohh)

Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
