Hell-raising, wheel-chasing, new worldy possessions
D Bm7 B7
Flesh-making, spirit-breaking, which one would you lessen?
C
The better part, the human heart

You love 'em or dissect 'em

Happiness or flashiness? How do you serve the question?

See, in the perfect world, I would be perfect, world

I don't trust people enough beyond they surface, world

I probably won't come around

This time, I might put you down
Bm7 B7 C
Last time, I ain't give a fuck, I still feel the same now
Am9 D
My feelings might go numb, you're dealing with cold thumb
Bm7 B7 C
I'm willing to give up a leg and arm and show empathy from

Pity parties and functions and you and yours

A perfect world, you probably live another 24

Now, in a perfect world, I probably won't be insensitive
D Bm7 B7
Cold as December, but never remember what Winter did
C Am9
I wouldn't blame you for mistakes I made or the bed I laid
D Bm7 B7
Seems like I point the finger just to make a point nowadays
C Am9
Smiles and cold stares, the temperature goes there
D D#dim
Indigenous disposition, feel like we belong here
Em7 C#dim
I know the walls, they can listen, I wish they could talk back
F#m7 Bm7(2) B7(2)
The hurt becomes repetition, the love almost lost that
C Am
Sick venom in men and women overcome with pride
D Bm7 B7
A perfect world is never perfect, only filled with lies
C Am
Promises are broken and more resentment come alive
D Bm7 B7
Race barriers make inferior of you and I
C Am9
See, in a perfect world, I'll choose faith over riches
D D#dim
I'll choose work over bitches, I'll make schools out of prison
Em7 C#dim
I'll take all the religions and put 'em all in one service

Just to tell 'em we ain't shit, but He's been perfect, world
