Cracks in Mr. Perfect

Ne-Yo

So after this song 
You gon' love me for my honesty 
Or you gon' hate me for being me 
Yeah, I'm sayin' 
One of the two is gonna happen 
With all that I can be 
Is what I am and who I am 

Chasing women when I should be recording 
Invite a couple then I invite some more 
Next thing you know it's 3 in the morning 
And I've only done one song 
20k on champagne in the club 
Then 20k more just because 
That's 40k in 3 hours 
But everybody watching my section 
So it's alright babe, 
I know it may sound silly to you 
Truthfully it's silly to me too 
But that's what makes this song so true 
I'm a little irresponsible most of the time 
I'm a man of my word but only when I ain't lying 
I say I'm not a hater but I hate to see you shine 
Especially if your shine is outshining mine 
I wanna be faithful but I keep running in the dimes 
And they make it so easy so it's hard to do right 
The image I portray making people judge a book 
But if they really took the time to look 

Then they will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 
They will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah yeah 
So they will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 
They will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 

I ain't got a condom here 
(Oh no) 
Too lazy to run to the store 
(And it's cold outside) 
But you just met her 3 hours ago 
Says the angel on my shoulder 
See but the devil he could talk real loud 
And on my decision I'm not proud 
But by the grace of God I'm here right now 
Help being good and older 
So it's alright 
I know it may sound reckless to you 
Truthfully it's reckless to me too 
But that's what makes this song so true 
I'm a little irresponsible most of the time 
I'm a man of my word but only when I ain't lying 
I say I'm not a hater but I hate to see you shine 
Especially if your shine is outshining mine 
I wanna be thankful but I keep running into dimes 
And they make it so easy so it's hard to do right 
The image I portray making people judge a book 
But if they really took the time to look 

Then they will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 
They will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah yeah 

Oh I do a lot of stupid shit 
Hoping I never have to pay for rent 
It's like I become rather an idiot 
Every extra million I get 
I thank God for my family and my crew 
'Cause I can be a lot to put up with 
Much love to my people that don't mind 
The cracks in Mr. Perfect 

So they will see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 
You can see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah yeah 
You can see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah 
Said you can see the cracks in mr. perfect 
Yeah
