Hit me!
(Hey) if you don't mind, can I be far from perfect?
Just can I be me?
Do you have time to see?
What a work in progress reeled in me
Spent many nights on my knees
'Cause that's the key for me to be free
A thousand tears, a million rose
Just some ingredients that helped me to grow
Got to pay, added some sun and rain
Blended it together with craze
I still I have to wait
'Cause I want and need to be strong, yeah
For the days I know I grow
And all my superpowers, well they're gone
You said I made something better, I'm putting it together
Trust me
If you don't mind
See I know where I'm going
If you don't mind, yeah, wow
If you don't mind, can I be
Honest, it was so hard to see
Every hot day (every hot day), every closed door (every closed door)
Every ingredients that helped me to grow
Got to pay
Add some sun and rain
Bring it together with grace (grace)
Still I had to wait (I had to wait)
'Cause I want and need to be strong
For the days I know I grow
And all my superpowers, well they're gone
You said I made something better, I'm putting it together
Trust me
If you don't mind
Ooh, see I'm now where I'm going
If you don't mind
Hey, if you don't mind
If you don't mind (I'll set you free)
Don't mind (I'll give you fee)
Don't mind (I'll be your source)
Nobody can love you more
If you don't mind (I'll have a fling)
Don't mind (tomorrow isn't my end)
Don't mind (taste and see)
There'll never be another like me
If you don't mind
If you don't mind
Come on, oh
Got to pay
Add some sun and rain
Bring it together with grace (grace)
Still I had to wait (oh yeah)
'Cause I want and need to be strong
For the days I know I grow
And all my superpowers, well they're gone
You said I made something better, I'm putting it together
Trust me
If you don't mind (if you don't mind)
See I know where I'm going
If you don't mind (oh, yeah, yeah)
See I know what I'm doing
If you don't mind (yeah, yeah)
Get out of my way
If you don't mind (yeah)
Thank you, oh, ooh, thank you for everything you've done for me, oh, ooh
