Huey Mack - Pretending Perfection Lyrics
[Hook]I don't really know what the future gonna holdI just want the things that I dreamed to come trueI don't really know all the things you've been toldJust wanna tell the story of the boy named HueAnd I don't really know what's left in storeBut I ain't pretending perfection no more[Verse 1]They say I'm not a star and they're probably rightBut I didn't work my whole life to take their adviceDon't look like Channing Tatum, can't sing like JTBut one thing I will never do is let it break meOpposite of a winner, cards on the table, I bustBut for once it's time to say enough is enough and fight backThey used to say I was a wanna-be but the thing about me isI can be whoever I wanna be, I've been down, I can make it rich or poorAnd the only time I'm ever selling out is on tourSo if I say I'm a winner, then I'm a mother *****ing winnerTime to give them something they can remember[Hook][Verse 2]Yeah!I'm really just like youNever thought I'd be a rapperJust did it cause it was coolJust a stubborn kid, I was never supposed to be thisAt first they were Lindsay Lohans, everybody was the meanestNow they got high hopes for meI'm the *****ing voiceFor these average ass kids who never had a choiceBut to follow the leader and go to classMake 60k in a year, then get half of that shit taxedSo I dropped out, gave up everything in hopes to get somethingMy mom lost hers, so I get her the crib she wantedAnd from where I stand my fans were the only helpTold the label I'll call them later and did it myself[Hook][Bridge]Always knew who I was gonna beNever been who they want from meAll alone, all by myselfDid my own thing without no helpTried to tell me, tried to sell me shortBut I determined my worthFrom that West Virginia dirtMy gift, my fear, my curse[Hook]
