[Intro]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo (Ease)
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo (Him)
I don't have the answers (Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth)
Yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo

[Chorus]
I failed and failed, I failed and failed
I jumped and fell and had to brace myself (Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth)
I cross my heart and hope to God
It's getting harder tryna face myself
I'm not perfect, oh no
I got urges, oh no
But I've been practicing (Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth)
I've been practicing (Kemba, yeah)

[Verse 1]
I am what I am
Although I try to be more than I can be
I place my right hand above the Bible, I swore that I would be
More a man than my father was
More aware when I fall in love
Who'd've thought that I would be the same?
No one does, no one does
[Chorus]
I failed and failed, I failed and failed
I jumped and fell and had to brace myself (Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth)
I cross my heart and hope to God
It's getting harder tryna face myself
I'm not perfect, oh no
I got urges, oh no
But I've been practicing (Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo)
I've been practicing (Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo)
Yo

[Verse 2]
Heartbeat quickening, tension thickening
You keep talking, but I stop listening
I start walking, but I start trip-ining
You move closer, but I start distancing
Who do I call when life gets sickening?
Thoughts get crippling, thoughts inhibiting
You keep talking, but I stop listening
You move closer, but I start distancing

[Bridge]
Save me from myself, I got dreams and hopes
Loot my needs and goals, who's gon' ease my soul?
Friends that come and go, fall like leaves in fall
Cannot right these wrongs
Heaven only knows I got some flaws I can expose, doors I can't keep closed
Decisions I chose, I can't change, I know
Don't want decent clothes, work to feed kid soul
Loot my needs and goals, who's gon' ease my soul?
[Chorus]
I failed and failed, I failed and failed
I jumped and fell and had to brace myself (Truth, truth, truth, truth, truth, truth)
I cross my heart and hope to God
It's getting harder tryna face myself
I'm not perfect, oh no
I got urges, oh no
But I've been practicing (Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo)
I've been practicing (Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo)
Him
