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
