Perfect

Yuh, I'm on a mission to another planet
Gonna jump into the network like Lieutenant Stamets
I'm making sure that my flame is ready, I'mma fan it
Cause when I die, my funeral will be secret, I'll plan it
I'm going solo, my tracks here will never vanish
No one will ever forget the time I was a bandit
I ran around spitting everyone told me to can it
But I will never stop, you know I will never ban it
When I look up at the sky, I wonder if I'll stand it
The thought of stopping everything soon as I began it
It's only been half a year, more than a minute
But then I remember why I'm here, I know who ran it
I plant the seeds with my words, like a pomegranate
I choose my words carefully, speaking like a mantis
Sometimes I stutter and I slur, but they still stan it
So no matter what I say, you still love me, dangit
I've said and done a lot of things, caused a lot of damage
I've made my parents mad, I've been mad at my parents
I don't know what to say, man, how will you understand it
Even if I cry, no one gets the message

I'm not perfect, no, I never will be
But one of these days someone will see
I got a lot of flaws, and I don't feel free
People die young, what'll happen with me
I'm not perfect, no, I never will be
But one of these days someone will see
I got a lot of flaws, and I don't feel free
People die young, what'll happen with me

One day, after I performed, I asked my friend I question
"Did you hear the anger in my voice"
That's what I said
"What anger?" He replied
I then felt the aggression
He didn't know that I was mad
Look at my expression
I've always had a bad temper and a lot of depression
If you didn't know, you had the wrong impression
I'm not who you think I am, don't make this a confession
And don't you ever tell me I need therapy, it's not a
Session for oppression, this is not a transgression
I don't want any suggestions, I don't need a lesson
What I need is a friend who will help me with succession
Not some adult who will give me indigestion
I'm just saying all my feelings out loud, it's an obsession
I can't take it anymore! Someone get me the concessions
My brain is going to explode from the compression
And I'm gonna keep yelling if anyone tells me different
I know you think that this is a joke, but it's not
Cause every time I rhyme, out comes another thought
Now, I can play nice, but sometimes I gotta jot
So take this as an example, not a shot
I'm not sending for you, I don't want a response
I don't wanna fight in a war I've already fought
What I want is a spot for all of you lot to leave me alone to connect my dots
When I'm ready, I'll come out and use my slot
My time will be used and I'll use what I've bought
But for now, I think I'm done, so here's what you ought to do
Let the hook play, it'll give you enough time to choose

I'm not perfect, no, I never will be
But one of these days someone will see
I got a lot of flaws, and I don't feel free
People die young, what'll happen with me
