I'm only human
It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made
I'm only human
Don't have the power to save the day, I can't
I'm only human
Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done
I need improvement, I need to work it
So many things for change to come
I'm only human
Y'all breathe the same air, share the same living space
Breath the same from the day we came out of mom's womb
Carrot touch trace from my parents talk to
Identify by a country, and a state, and a race, and a faith we belong to
From a face, what we label, and name we respond to
All too innocent until we get imprinted from the images we witness
And eventually resemble what we gone through
Some people say the shape of your fate is beyond you
Other say that fate is what you make it
I try to do right 'cause with a stake when they see you make a wrong move
But I ain't superhuman, I don't got a cape or a costume
Homie on the dog food, thought he got clean
Talkin' to him, all he doin' is nodding out sleep
Who am I to judge him, hard for me to drink and not fiend
Scared they gon' find my dead body on the box spring
Know a lot of cool chicks, some with daddy issues
Hard to tell how many men have been up in her mouth piece
Men f**k a ton of women, they a certified pimp
When the shoe was on the other foot they holler out freak
Unless she isn't wife material
Both got venereal diseases, burnin' while they p**s
Friends in long-term relationships lying to each other
Never told them about the dirt they went and did
Kids that are now searching for a dad
Young adults feel at fault want a college grad
I can background check you, do a searchin' 'bout your past
But I never know that person in the flesh 'cause
I'm only human
It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made
I'm only human
Don't have the power to save the day, I can't
I'm only human
Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done
I need improvement, I need to work it
So many things for change to come
I'm only human
Like the girl on Instagram tryna show her body off to get more likes
But the dude who got in trouble 'cause his girl saw him hit the heart sign
Breaking up my manager p**sed at me 'cause I was drunk on live
Last night on my phone doing blow like it's cool when I know it ruins lives
Several times it almost ruined mine, what a waste
Wanna lie like I'm doin' fine, but I ain't
Wanna quit before it's too late, pump the brakes
It's a cure, I wanna lose weight, but I can't 'cause I drink socially
The only way that I can function
Distancing the people assumption
When I should have called and had a one-on-one discussion
Disgusted I'm cussing out someone I trust
Being guilty and the glove fit
Stuck in a rut then my friends called
Last Christmas I was and p**sed and I went off
F**k I didn't wish I involved my in-laws
Fists all swollen, giant hole inside a thin wall in my living room
And ever since its been a pitfall
Really need my family, I don't never call them ask them how they kids are, tell them I miss y'all
Can't ignore the insults, thought I had a thick skin don't gotta leave the ten cents
Caught up in this business and I don't really fit in
Call on my prescription to calm me down like Prince did
I don't got a spotter when I bench press all the pressure on my chest
Lost another friendship hopin' they forgive me, I forgive them
This wasn't my intention

I'm only human
It's hard to count all of my mistakes I've made
I'm only human
Don't have the power to save the day, I can't
I'm only human
Nobody's perfect, I've been ashamed of things I've done
I need improvement, I need to work it
So many things for change to come
I'm only human
