I try to give all of myself to you
But before I can get there
I've got parts of me I'm trying to lose

Yeah, I got my own imperfections
I got my own set of scars to hide
I got my own imperfections
I can't hold your heart when I'm fixing mine

So give it up, give it up
I ain't gonna save you
Give it up, give it up now
Give it up, give it up
I ain't gonna save you
Give it up, give it up now

'Cause I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
Yeah, I got my own, I got my own

Hold on
Not tryna put you on the shelf
But before I could love you
I need to learn to love myself

'Cause I got my own imperfections
I got my own set of scars to hide
I got my own imperfections
I can't hold your heart when I'm fixing mine

So give it up, give it up
I ain't gonna save you
Give it up, give it up now
Give it up, give it up
I ain't gonna save you
Give it up, give it up now

'Cause I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
Yeah, I got my own, I got my own

They're part of me and you are, too
And I don't really want to choose
Can you love them the way that I love you?
They make me who I am today
And they won't ever go away
Can you love them the way that I love you?

'Cause I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
I got my own imperfections
Yeah, I got my own, I got my own (I got)

Before I can love you (before I can love you)
I need to learn to love myself (I got my own)
Before I can trust you (before I can trust you)
I need to learn to trust myself (I need, I need)
(Before I can love you)
(I got my)
(Before I can trust you)
