So what's a young man to do Had a million in the bank when I turned 22 Alright Am I the same me Doing impressions of myself So people say it hasn't changed me If only that were true now But ain't an artist in the game That can do what I do out I ain't your little secret no more But listen real close and I give you one more See all of these American dreams That I find myself living out Mixed with all of these man-made women That I find myself digging out They tell me all day long To get a bodyguard to help myself get around But I ain't ever been afraid of other people getting inside I'm more afraid of what I got on the inside getting out And what was left A perfect mess And if we forget A perfect mess And what was left A perfect mess That we forget Been a while since '09 'member when I told you it was A matter of time that you Believed me Did it take this long I told Sean if I ever got on That I'd never ever buy a chain with ice And I didn't Before this all changed my life from dreams In the dorm room to doing big things In the boardroom See all of these non-American bottles That I find myself sipping on Mixed with all of the things I'mma have to relearn how to One day live without Mixed with all of the things inside my head That I can't figure out But I ain't ever been afraid of people seeing inside I'm more afraid of what I got on the inside getting out And what was left A perfect mess And if we forget A perfect mess And what was left A perfect mess That we forget
