Nonfiction - Perfecting Imperfections (Remastered)

Ugh
Getting high just to numb the pain
Keep my pen and pad to keep from going insane
Like my nigga Irv-V said this world so crazy
Make me wonder do I need to gon' and have a baby
Settle down with fiance', a bad chick with attitude
Like Beyonce' when she ripping the runway
Ain't never scared to bust back when it's gunplay
But bring me down when I'm at my peak like Dante'
Plant mental seeds so your brain can grow
Nigga shooting for the stars but not famous though
They putting out that bullshit music that's aiming low
Taking over these kids mind so their brain is throwed
Can't blame 'em though, 'cause we all trapped in this matrix
'Til the Lord come and get us then it's back to the basics
Can't rewind time but spend it spitting to bass kicks
8-0-8 snares and hi-hats producing them great ticks

Ugh
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired

Can't stand for nothing you believe don't say shit
Just like that UGK before the CD I taped it
From Riding Dirty to Dirty Money we still hustle
Close to thirty not riding dirty but still struggle
And still scuffle just to make ends meet
But I'll be damned if I ever fall victim to the streets
Mama forever told me never run to a fight
But if the shit hit the fan we gon' ride tonight
Send a word to the heavens to get heavenly armed
Went though a couple tornados but we gon' weather the storm
Receiving signals that they can't even get at Fox 10
Like a pawn on a chess board they got us boxed in
Hoodwinked, bamboozled, run-amuck, led astray
Just some of the things that Malcolm X used to say
A bullet to the chest had to end his life
Because you lose a leader that should never end your fight
That's NonFiction

I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting Imperfections but feeling so tired
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired

Was in the dark but now I'm seeing the light
Now that I know the truth I don't even see 'em as white
Only maniac european devils in action
Called The Media using the deadliest tactics
Desensitizing people to what's really goins on
Like driving with your knee, steady steering us wrong
Fuck a cliff the economy plummeting straight to hell
Fuck a chip in my wrist, I don't have to buy or sell shit
I'ma only use what God gave me
'Cause he the only one who gon' be coming to save me
And whoever else in tune with the spirit of God
Know the lyrics to the song that you're hearing is odd
'Cause I be that NonFiction providing the truth
Super trill never even getting high in the booth
Getting hot in the booth 'cause I be spitting that flame
Higher Infinite power just let it enter your brain
Don't be contained

I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired
I can't explain the way I'm feeling inside
All the way down for the cause so I'm willing to ride
Head to the skies even when they're killing my pride
Perfecting imperfections but feeling so tired
