Flaws In My Character

I got some flaws in my character
Got some holes in my game
But I’m working on them boy
You look at yourself, you say the same?

I am not shying from them
That’s not something I know how
Just had my mind on other things
But I’m working on them now.

I’ve made a few mistakes
Ain’t flourished much in love
But I’d a lot on my plate
Now there’s less and I’m feeling good.

Got some flaws in my character
Got some holes in my game
But I’m working on them man
You look at yourself, can you say the same?

I am not running from them
Shit, I’m running to them now
Probably haven’t spotted some of them
But I’m sure they’ll come popping up somehow.

I’m just looking in the mirror
But I’m not being vain
I’m just looking trying to figure
How I metamorphose my pain.

A lot of stuff has gone wrong
A lot of waves I had to surf
But if you want to really push on
You can’t avoid getting hurt.

You can’t run from it
You be running all your life
You just gotta make something of it
Use your dark to create some light.

Got some flaws in my character
Got some holes in my game
But I’m working on them boy
You look at yourself, you say the same?

I’m all about that hope
But sometimes that hope be coming hard
But if you want to allow real growth
You gotta learn to cope with scars.

Got some flaws in my character
Got some holes in my game
But I’m working on them boy
You look at yourself, you say the same?
