Lyrics

Ain't Perfect

[Chorus: Skeme]

I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gon feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gonna feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

[Verse 1: Skeme]

It goes real niggas ain’t perfect, perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gon feel

Cause man I was born real and gonna die real

You gotta stay down, that’s how I feel

Can’t be worried about another nigga

No, I just worry bout my bills

And I’m livin life to the fullest

Trigger finger itchin bitch then I pull it

Got me a 4-5, 19-11

With 4 metal jackets for these bullets

I done did everything that you couldn’t

You might sail out but I wouldn’t

And if the rap fall out then it’s traps all out

Bring the pots back cause I’m cooking

[Chorus: Skeme]

I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gon feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gonna feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

[Verse 2: Skeme]

And it go real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

Man ain’t one rapper in the game right now got a half a ticket with no deal

See I don’t fuck with niggas cause that shit weak

Besides dirty drank ain’t shit sweet

Snake niggas wanna go behind your back

Just like the pass from pistol pete

And these little niggas that be dissin me

Let nina sing to your new symphony

To keep it 100 I got old money

Now put it on yo head and you’re history

You can’t fuck with I, not physically

Not mentally, you ain’t shit to me

Money talks and bullshit walks

So you broke niggas just don’t mention me and I

[Chorus: Skeme]

I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gon feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gonna feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

[Verse 3: Wale]

They say trill niggas just working

I’m supposed to bitch

Real niggas ain’t perfect

But I’m close to it

Coast to coast, where your focus at?

Big up the coach and niggas stole from that

Where yo soldiers at? Where yo hoes is at?

All my niggas in tracks but all my hoes in check uh

Thought I told you that

DMV, you know we on the map

P.I.M.P they callin me cause all the H.O.E.S is calling back uh

Now we like em, love em and leave em man

You heard big brother’s CD

Now we both stay skeming

I’m out

[Chorus: Skeme]

I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gon feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Perfect niggas ain’t real

So I just keep my cash right and say fuck how haters gonna feel

Cause I know real niggas ain’t perfect

Said you know real niggas ain’t perfect
