Not Perfect

[Chorus]

Wish me coulda tell you seh mi perfect, but I’m not (I'm not)

But just true, anyting at all mi nuh fear

And mi doh push drama

Just to make it clear

[Verse 1]

Gotta keep it real

I’m just misunderstanded

Things do happen, it’s not like planned it

People you love, will all see you vanish

You happiness them want you walk weh from it

Strap with mines if I had to

Nah recoil pon me nine dat a knock you
