look in my eyes.
tell me what you see
do you see perfection in me?
to you,do i look complete?
now take one more look pass my celebrity.
that's where you'll find the real me.
to you,do i still look complete?
i got every material thing i could ever need.
i got the love from my fans that adore me.
and i'm grateful.and i thank you so very much
but my love for myself is lacking a little bit.
i can admit that i'm working on me.
staying faithful.and what i'm tryna say is...
just like you sometimes i get down.
i get down
sometimes i just wanna cry.
sometimes i get depressed.
and just like me,tryna be complete.
tryna be complete
just understand we're all just a work in progress.
life can be difficult.
no one promised that it would be...

sometimes i get down.
sometimes i just wanna cry.
sometimes i get depressed.
and just like me tryna be complete
just understand we're all just a work in progress.
anybody knowing what it is to struggle .
never ever running in the face of trouble.
