So with us, we must be beneficial to those who have befriended
Us or those we have allowed to befriend. If they are making
A mistake, it is our duty to tell them that you are going
Wrong here. And if we don't tell them, we are going to be
Making an even bigger mistake. We are going to be responsible
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
My life's been a series of tough lessons
Mistakes, misfortunes, victories, successes
A couple of masterpieces, a couple of rough sketches
Eye-opening moments that altered my perspective
Cause when the music ends, I discover what a true friend is
It's not your fans, record labels or your crew members
It's the friends with no agendas or minor plots
Who still keep in contact whether you rhyme or not
Whether you're signed or not
Whether your last album kindly flopped
Or it's still on Billboard climbing spots
Yes, indeed it hurts when you see people in spurts
Homies disappear then reappear when they need a verse
When my daughter was hospitalized for a month
Do you think a member of my old crew called once?
But when they heard I was returning with some new music
They sent so many messages, I'm through with you losers
That's the way a brother's treated by his own fam?
I'm through with trying to work it out, I'm through with phone rants
I'm reprogrammed, a different Kam
I applaud you as a rapper, but fuck you as a grown man
You're reconciled, then wanna reconcile and do tours
I got a family, what the hell I need a crew for?
To me it doesn't hold much significance
Maybe we can just discuss our differences in a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
There's a lot of things I got to accept to be in this business
Weighing pros and cons like a soldier re-enlisting
While I was gone, so-called friends treated me different
Maybe for me to see it I truly needed the distance
I left the game fed up
I couldn't tell you the whereabouts of
Names that I shouted out on chain letters
That small-scale fame was more than I bargained for
Seeing industry friends walk through revolving doors
Seeing some producers that you helped build a buzz
Treat you like a peasant the second they start feeling love
I guess it's just a reminder to me how real it was
Fame will make a humble man feel godly
When I was on the rise they was with me, beside me
But stopped speaking when they reached the 50s and Kwelies
I'm still standing even when they abandoned the lesser knowns
But personally I just felt like a stepping stone
And they won't give a damn about it 'til the wealth is gone
I humble myself and tell them "Thanks for helping, holmes"
Cause regardless I'm an artist with a platform
When former friends see success I still clap for 'em
I speak freely with no fear of being blackballed
Cause if it ain't God, then whose permission do I ask for?
The truth hurts when the words are thorough
You take offense, we can make amends
Maybe in a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
If I could change anything in life
I would try to make things right
No drama, no war, no fight
I would make it a perfect world
Just a perfect world
Just a perfect world
Just a perfect world

A mistake, it is our duty to tell them that you are going
