This Perfect Life
Does the richest man enjoy this perfect life?
Does he value the kisses of his beautiful wife?
Is there such a thing?, do we think something's better when it's not ours?
Is there a perfect life?, or do we just wish to live another persons 24 hours
Bill gates could spend 300 milIion today and still be richer than us
Some can drink for fun, some will lose everything from the liquor they touch
Some beautiful girl is getting beaten by her man and she'll go running back
But somehow I'm wrong to talk to her and tell her she deserves better than that
I've got a lot of questions but no one has the answers
If a baby is born rich, but before turning 5, he loses both parents to cancer
Would you still envy him for all the money he will inherit?
Will you be jealous of his wardrobe because you can't wear it?
I miss my ex, but she has a new man now
Should I accept it, or tell him to step back because I'm ready to stand now?
I gave up on love, but I hope my next girl is my last
I need to build a great future with one, but can they accept my past?
Am I wrong for crying about my depression & being bipolar, when kids have cancer and aids?
Should I be ashamed of self-harming, when some mum just lost her kid to a bullet or knife blade?
I've had a lot of sadness, but I've also had good times
Why is it the memories I want to forget, my brain seems to rewind?
There's so many girls out there, but I've found the wrong ones
The issue is, I talk about them like "She's one I wouldn't mind using my tongue on"
I follow it, by I wouldn't mind spending a night with her
But I don't deserve true love, until I look at a girl and say she's the one I want to spend my life with her
Does the richest man enjoy this perfect life?
Does he value the kisses of his beautiful wife?
Is there such a thing?, do we think something's better when it's not ours?
Is there a perfect life?, or do we just wish to live another persons 24 hours
