Partial Perfection
Partially, everybody is perfect in one way or another
Contradicting the way perfect is told to smother,
Others, the beings who are flawless in every way,
With top grades, wages that actually pay,
Me, I'm just a kid with aspirations and dreams
Typical dreams, to be in the Nba and impact the sport
Like Kareem, or Hakeem, but now my goals are more refined,
They help to define, and now reinforce the fort,
The foundation of dreams that mean something more,
I am perfect, and flawless in absolutely no form,
But in the pursuit of perfection, in terms of physicality,
knowledge, spirit, moral, and even obscurity.
