PRIDE.

Love's gonna get you killed

But pride's gonna be the death of you and you and me

And you and you and you and me

And you and you and you and me

And you and you and you

It wasn't all to share, but there

In another life, I surely was there

It wasn't all to share, but there

I care, I care

Hell-raising, wheel-chasing

New worldy possessions

Flesh-making, spirit-breaking

Which one would you lessen?

The better part, the human heart

You love 'em or dissect 'em

Happiness or fla*******ness

How do you serve the question

See, in the perfect world

I would be perfect, world

I don't trust people enough beyond they surface, world

I don't love people enough to put my faith in men

I put my faith in these lyrics, hoping I make amend

I understand I ain't perfect

I probably won't come around

This time, I might put you down

Last time, I ain't give a ****

I still feel the same now

My feelings might go numb

You're dealing with cold thumb

I'm willing to give up a leg

And arm and show empathy from

Pity parties and functions and you and yours

A perfect world, you probably live another 24

I can't fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure

I can't fake humble just 'cause your ass is insecure

It wasn't all to share, but there

In another life, I surely was there

It wasn't all to share, but there

I care, I care

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there

Now, in a perfect world

I probably won't be insensitive

Cold as December

But never remember what Winter did

I wouldn't blame you for mistakes

I made or the bed I laid

Seems like I point the finger

Just to make a point nowadays

Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there

Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here

I know the walls, they can listen

I wish they could talk back

The hurt becomes repetition

The love almost lost that

Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride

A perfect world is never perfect

Only filled with lies

Promises are broken and more resentment come alive

Race barriers make inferior of you and I

See, in a perfect world

I'll choose faith over riches

I'll choose work over *******

I'll make schools out of prison

I'll take all the religions

And put 'em all in one service

Just to tell 'em we ain't *******t

But He's been perfect, world

It wasn't all to share, but there

In another life, I surely was there

It wasn't all to share, but there

I care, I care

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there

Maybe I wasn't there
