Work In Progress Lyrics

Mary J Blige

• 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
• (Just 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
• (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
• (Not 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
• (So depressed)
• Just like me, tryna be complete
• (Just 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 don't we all
• Baby, I feel your pain
• We're all the same, we're all the same
• Oh, I am just like you
• Sometimes I get down
• Sometimes I just wanna cry
• Sometimes I get depressed
• Oh, just like me
• (Just like me)
• Tryna be complete
• (Just tryna be complete)
• Just understand we're all just a work in progress
• (Just understand we're all a work in progress)
• Just like you sometimes I get down
• Sometimes I just wanna cry
• Sometimes I get depressed
• (Can you feel me, can you hear me?)
• Just like me, tryna be complete
• (I am, I am, I'm just like you)
• Just understand we're all just a work in progress
