Overtime - Never Really Know

Perfection isn't gauged on how well you do, naw not to me.
Perfection is gauged on how hard you try.

I hear the rain on the window pane, I hear that fame is an evil thang, see it's all the same.
Sounds good but it's not that hot but what if you never get that shot.
Are you better off?
I don't know bout me I just hate losing.
Keep my head to the clouds and my feet moving.
I ain't got shit else so I don't know better, I ain't got a degree but I'm a go getter.
All my problems in life are all my own fault, so I ain't blaming nobody for my downfalls.
My own momma said I should have a backup plan, I love you mom but you sound an awful lot like dad.
But what would I be if I never tried and if I never had a song to write.
Huh, what if I never took the time to write down what's in my mind. I guess we'll never know.

Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.

I never spit just to see what'll stick, I'd rather not sit and waste that time, I got shit to do.
I never once sat and thought I would rap, in fact I thought writing was whack until I learned to rhyme.
Now it's all I do, if I ain't on the road and if it ever stops, then it's time to go.
I've never spittin' something so sincere and never written something so damn clear that I could really see it.
Ya, it's like I'm painting a track adding white to my pallet in my canvas is black.
Black and white it's as simple as that, I ain't got no other choice and I'm hella good with that.
So as I keep moving I just hope you're proud of me, I'm talking to the people that never often doubted me.
And where I would have been if I ain't never grown from the rain on the window pane, I guess we'll never really know.

Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.

Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know if we're walking through our life and we're scared to open doors and you're walking on a path that was never really yours.
Ya, I guess we'll never really know.
