One step up and then two steps back Might slip up but I'm still on track How I'm feelin', I'll let you lead As we proceed I'm not perfect But I'm gonna give you all I've got Hope that you're ready 'cause I'm not Don't wanna be, it ain't what you need Lucky me I'm not perfect But that don't mean I won't shoot my shot Don't like to work against the clock I shouldn't wait, if I hesitate it might be too late Oh, I'm not perfect Even with all my scars, even if all is lost, I'm here Tryna be the man you deserve, tryna be a man of my word, it's clear We may lose sight of it all, we may lose signal But baby, in spite of it all, I'm better when I'm with you I'm not perfect One step up and then two steps back Might slip up, but I'm still on track How I'm feelin', I'll let you lead I'll keep healin' as we proceed Ayy, man Made, made in God image, that's intelligent designin' All started with a cell, then that cell was divided Before it fully split, witness the vesica piscis You can see it's an eye sideways, I think of Isis Even father is the symbol of Jesus or a vagina Ironically, that's what she be screamin', when I'm inside her (Jesus Christ) It's all solved in diagrams, used by the scholars To separate the pros and the cons, to find the balance I'm two fishes tied at the tail, how I'ma manage?
