Perfecto

(album: Swimming - 2018)

Well, it ain't perfect but I don't mind
Because it's worth it
Who really has the time at all?
It ain't perfect but I don't mind
'Cause on the surface I look so fine
But really I'm bugging, bugging
Making something out of nothing

Yeah, as hard as it gets: cool, calm and collected
Holding my breath, this ain't what I expected
Don't argue to death, pull my heart out my chest
The cards is all on the table, I'm calling it
Don't say it, I swallow it
When living off of borrowed time
Often I'm on the fence, on a line
Adding up what's on my mind
My feet on the clouds, head on the ground
That we going down, bet you know me now

I'm treading water, I swear
That if I drown, I don't care
They're calling for me from the shore, I need more

Well, it ain't perfect but I don't mind
Because it's worth it
(Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it?)
Who really has the time at all?
(Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it? Is it?)
It ain't perfect but I don't mind
'Cause on the surface I look so fine
But really I'm bugging, bugging
Making something out of nothing

Yeah, it feel like the weekend on a Tuesday, I can move dates
"I got something else to do" day, always do hate
If I do say, the D'USSÉ with the homies like it's Kool-Aid
Me? I'm just tryna play it cool, J (Anyways)
Yeah, mind over matter, I'm purer than alkaline
Been stuck on album time, I gotta get out to shine
Fly on the wall, shit, I was bugging
Miss me like you getting withdrawal, I keep that coming, yeah

I'm treading water, I know
If I stop moving, I'll float
They're nothing new, it—
Just play it cool, baby, just play it cool
You know, cool

Well, it ain't perfect but I don't mind
Because it's worth it
Who really has the time at all?
It ain't perfect but I don't mind
'Cause on the surface I look so fine
But really I'm bugging, bugging
Making something out of nothing

Yeah, tell me you love me, spin me around
Pretty please, pick me up in the air and don't put me down
Seen it all unfold, sat back and watched
Knowing time don't give a fuck about clocks until they stop
Bare feet, running late, her car started
Even though the only thing that she driving a hard bargain
More important is I'm kinda sorta out the door but
She put me back together when I'm out of order
Perfect
