I'm not perfect, I'm just me

No, I can't pretend to be nobody else, I can only be me

If you don't like me, oh well

The time it takes to judge me, homeboy

Better judge yourself, yourself

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

We ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

And we ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

Talkin' 'bout this, they talk about that

They say that you're ugly, say that you're bad

Smile in your face to stab you in the back

You tryna do good, they say you do crap

They say you gotta be skinny, look so pretty

Image is the key to the goddamn city

I know the radio gon' beat this one

When I say that

'cause I'm not perfect, I'm just me

No, I can't pretend to be nobody else, I can only be me

If you don't like me, oh well

The time it takes to judge me, homeboy

Better judge yourself, yourself

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

We ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

And we ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

Livin' your life, sometimes it ain't fair

Well, fuck what they like and tell them who cares?

The tables are turned like musical chairs

You can't make orange juice from squeezin' a pear

They laugh 'cause you're different, tell them they're corny

Think that you're weak but show them you're strong

So what if I'm right? so what if I'm wrong?

What if I can't finish lyrics to this goddamn song?

I'm not perfect, I'm just me

No, I can't pretend to be nobody else, I can only be me

If you don't like me, oh well

The time it takes to judge me, homeboy

Better judge yourself, yourself

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

We ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

I'm only human, yeah

I'm only human

And we ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

Say you got money, so what if I'm poor?

You only think I work at the store

So, so what, who cares what you got?

I'm still puttin' my food in my pot

So what if I was hungry, sleepin' on the curb?

What if I'm from the ghetto, what if I'm from the suburb?

What if I'm not cool? so what if I'm a nerd?

If I gave you advice, could I still be heard?

I'm not perfect, I'm just me

We ain't perfect, no

No, we ain't perfect, no

I'm only human

I'm only human
