I Envy Your Shade of Perfection


I envy your shade of perfection Whatever it is about you that gives you the right to criticize my flaws no matter how recurring they may be and you never address the problems that deep never do we see you must be perfect Only god can judge me that quote so untrue because he's the only one who has a right to judge me yet so many others do Shadowed in advice as they sprinkle in opinion you may hear all of my problems but if you judge you never listen I'm black think about it I envy your perfection because I could never do what you do talk directly to my face and single me out for some of the same stuff that you do I want that perfection for one reason and only that because I'm nice enough to hear bout your struggles and never judge you I can hear about all of your problems and never hurt you I'll joke with you about heartache and pain until you're over it but I need your type of perfection to just defend myself
