Mary j blige - work in progress (growing pains)
Look in my eyes
Tell me what you see
Do you see perfection in me
To you do i look complete
Now take one more look pass my celebrity
That's where you'll find the real me
To you do i still look complete
I got every material thing i could ever need
I got the love from my fans that adore me
And i'm grateful and i thank you so very much
But my love for myself is lacking a little bit
I can admit that i'm working on me
Staying faithful and what i'm tryna say is
Just like you sometimes i get down
I get down
Sometimes i just wanna cry
Sometimes i get depressed
And just like me tryna be complete
Tryna be complete
Just understand we're all just a work in progress
Life can be difficult
No one promised that it would be
No one promised it would be
Sunshine all the time easy
Some pain is guaranteed
But it ain't impossible
You can find the joy you see
Took me a while but i did finally
Open your eyes and you will see i'm just like you
Sometimes i get down
Sometimes i just wanna cry
Sometimes i get depressed
And just like me tryna be complete
Just understand we're all just a work in progress
Anybody knowing what it is to struggle
Never ever running in the face of trouble
Say "i'm with you" (i'm with you)
"i feel you" (i feel you)
"i'm with you"
Just like you
Sometimes i fall but i feel your pain we're all the same
We're all the same ohhh i am just like you
Just like you sometimes i get down
Sometimes i just wanna cry
Sometimes i get depressed
And just like me tryna be complete
Tryna be complete
Just understand we're all just a work in progress
Just like you sometimes i get down
Sometimes i just wanna cry
(can you feel me can you hear me
And just like me tryna be complete
Just understand we're all just a work in progress
