Story behind the song
"How dare you give me less than your very best."
- Taylor Mali
Lyrics
There's Always Perfection
I've never wanted to be like me.
i want to be
better, sharper, smoother, smarter
now is not enough
i'm forever in pursuit
of what cannot be
what can only become
what can only be won
Tomorrow.
on the morrow of my finish line
i'll be dreaming of
tomorrow.
but there's always perfection,
Well there's that.
i don't want to be me
I've done that.
i'm ready for the next,
the latest, hottest
off the presses
version of me.
But not me now,
no way,
it's in the past
and tomorrow's frame
will be me-
stronger, nicer, thoughtful & kinder
in a one-of-a-kind-mind sorta way
'cause the day after,
i'll replace him
with the next wave of me.
a Truer, bluer wave
and he'll be
More than ever before.
But there's always perfection
well there's That to aspire for
see, from me
i expect things
that a sunset promises
and sunrises bring
the Potential to be
faster, sleeker, tender, meeker
and Still see;
that nothing costs
like lost Humility.
but there's Always perfection.
well there's that
to aspire
for what we Assume
we can only admire
because, after all,
what's the Point?
what's the point
in aiming
for less
than
the highest
when the world's amazed
that grades
aren't biased?
that the winner
at the end of the day
is pious.
will i be okay
being yesterday's news
when tomorrow's cue
is at sunset today?
no way.
that's why i'll never be me.
i'll take tomorrow's wave,
i'll ride it and say;
improvement of self in
an upward direction
though I may never win
compared to perfection,
you go ahead
and admire away.
i'll aspire My way.
Today.
