I'm Only Human

I'm only human

It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made

I'm only human

Don't have the power to save the day, I can't

I'm only human

Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done

I need improvement, I need to work it

So many things for change to come

I'm only human

We all breathe the same air, share the same living space

Breath the same from the day that we came up out our mom's womb

Character traits from our parents, we behave how we've been taught to

Identify by a country, and a state

And a race, and a faith we belong to

From our face, what we're labeled and named we respond to

All too innocent until we get imprinted from the images we witness

And eventually resemble what we gone through

Some people say the shape of your fate is beyond you

Other say that fate is what you make it

I try to do right 'cause they glue you up

To State when they see you make a wrong move

But I ain't superhuman, I don't got a cape or a costume

Homie on the dog food, thought he got clean

Talkin' to him, all he doin' is nodding out sleep

Who am I to judge him?

Hard for me to drink and not fiend

Scared they gon' find my dead body on the box-spring

Know a lot of cool chicks, some with daddy issues

Hard to tell how many men have been up in her mouth piece

Men fuck a ton of women, they a certified pimp

When the shoe was on the other foot, they holler out freak

Like she isn't wife material

Both got venereal diseases, burnin' while they piss

Friends in long-term relationships, lying to each other

Never told them about the dirt they went and did

Kids acting out, searching for a dad

Young adults feel at fault to their

Parents 'cause they want a college grad

I can background check you, do research about your past

But I never know that person in the flesh 'cause

I'm only human

It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made

I'm only human

Don't have the power to save the day, I can't

I'm only human

Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done

I need improvement, I need to work it

So many things for change to come

I'm only human

Like the girl on Instagram tryna show her body off to get more likes

Had a dude who got in trouble

'Cause his girl saw him hit the heart sign

Waking up, embarrassed

My manager pissed at me 'cause I was drunk on live

Last night on my phone doing blow

Like it's cool when I know it ruins lives

Several times it almost ruined mine, what a waste

Wanna lie like I'm doin' fine, but I ain't

Wanna quit before it's too late, pump the brakes

Insecure, I wanna lose weight, but I can't 'cause I drink socially

The only way that I can function

Dissing people in the public based off an assumption

When I should have called and had a one-on-one discussion

Disgusted, I'm cussing out someone I trusted

Guilty and the glove fit

Stuck in a rut, hit ignore the minute that my friends called

Last Christmas I was dissed, feeling pissed and I went off

Fuck I wish I didn't involve my in-laws

Fist's all swollen, giant hole inside a thin wall in my living room

And ever since it's been a pitfall

Really need my family

I don't never call them ask them how

They kids are, tell them I miss y'all

Can't ignore the insults, thought I had a thick skin

You could just unfollow me, don't gotta leave the ten cents

Caught up in this business and I don't really fit in

Call on my prescription to calm me down like Prince did

I don't got a spotter when I bench press all the pressure on my chest

Lost another friendship hopin' they forgive me, I forgive them

This wasn't my intention

I'm only human

It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made

I'm only human

Don't have the power to save the day, I can't

I'm only human

Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done

I need improvement, I need to work it

So many things for change to come

I'm only human
