I'm a perfectionist.

Perfectionist

I know what I am
A perfectionist

I maul over this
I maul over that
Thinking is this perfect
Or is that right
Everything must be in its right place

If a table is crocked
Well to me anyway
Ill straighten up everyday

If my clothes don't match
I walk in horror and shame
Thinking did I really wear that

If I paint on a isle
And people they say
It looks wonderful
No more should you paint

I look at them strange
Are you mad cant you see?
There's an unbalance
That needs to be fixed

Even in poetry
It takes me awhile
To read what I write everyday

If not ok in my eyes
Ill look for the right words
The right rhythms
Embellishing words as we speak

Shaking my head
Blushing just a bit
Yes I am a perfectionist

It is easy to be a moral perfectionist when one is politically unaccountable.

I'm a perfectionist. I need to be needed. I need to do things for a man. But I don't need to do them as much, these days.

Bless + Destroy

[MadChild]
I give you the creeps
My style's sickening
First the awakening
Prepare for the quickening
Battle sole controller
There can only be one
Drink a can of Pepsi-cola
While I'm walking on the sun
I'm ill
Equipped with interchangeable weaponry
Three mystical blades
And multiple personalities
Come crisp with raspiness
Witchcraft to grasp this
Depth of perception
Schizophrenic perfectionist
My direction is out there past the stars
Part beast

What Is It

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
A freaky-dicky yo (all the time baby) -- (4x)
Uh, how you feelin y'all (i'm feelin fine) -- (4x)
A freaky-dicky yo (all the time baby) -- (2x)
Uh, how you feelin y'all (i'm feelin fine) -- (2x)
Yo, this is the way it's goin down
We come in compound releasin double-rounds in hound
Like keith ?senses? you defend techniques and on match
When i begin to draw back, cover up your cardiac
'cause i'ma rush ya, when i penetrate feel the pressure
The critical perfectionist, rhythmic expressionist
We comin deadly y'all ever in
And you'll be scared to pick the mic up again
Lyrically you on the level of "green, eggs and ham"
Your best bet is fold 'cause i gots a bigger hand
Plus i'm steppin like a monster so go-go and scram
You ain't experienced, you lucky if you ride the ambulance
'cause when you dealin with fool will is quite fatal
Shape-shiftin rubbers like play dough
Your rhymes are anal and we ain't got no time to play
No games, put the mic down, boy, try not to say no
More than rhymes 'cause you duplicate like kinkos
You're a carbon copy with the wrinkles
You actin like a nigga that be rhymin in a pringle commercial
But you can wear it in rehearsal
Chorus:
No need to front, that's what it is
I gotta get into you
Oh, i gotta show you what it is
Gotta get into you
Strong communicator called the black eyed peas
Hard illustrator co-coordinate with ease
And duplicator crew, we put em all on freeze
Lock em in the cell, then throw away the keys
Another lost identity in disease
Entity with a so-called mc enemies
Will decrease when i step into your sceneries
Of course now you off course lost up in the source
I'm running out of time, this no time for no scrimmage
Aristorate the diamonds and replace it with the real image
Picture that, i know where i'm at
I know where i'm going and i'll be back
With a stronger impact lyrics be intact
Get you intoxicated when black attack
With the full-force pressure, hard to measure
On a rate, whack mc's won't prevail
On a dream of makin dream braggin about infrared beams
But it seems all they really pullin is pullin them schemes
I take it back to the essense of hip-hop

I'm a perfectionist. I can't help it, I get really upset with myself if I fail in the least.

I don't believe in perfection. I don't think there is such a thing. But the energy of wanting things to be great is a perfectionist energy.

I was made to be a perfectionist at everything I did. Everything was more important than what I wanted.

I've been called many names like perfectionist, difficult and obsessive. I think it takes obsession, takes searching for the details for any artist to be good.

I'm a perfectionist, so I can drive myself mad - and other people, too. At the same time, I think that's one of the reasons I'm successful. Because I really care about what I do.

Midlife Crisis

Go on and wring my neck
Like when a rag gets wet
A little discipline
For my pet genius
My head is like a lettuce
Go on and dig your thumbs in
I cannot stop giving
Im thirty-something
Sense of security
Like pockets jingling
Midlife crisis
Suck ingenuity
Down through the family tree
Youre perfect, yes, its true
But without me youre only you
Your menstruating heart
It aint bleeding enough for two
Its a midlife crisis...
What an inheritance
The salt and the kleenex
Morbid self attention
Bending my pinky back
A little discipline
A donor by habit
A little discipline
Rent an opinion
Sense of security
Holding blunt instrument
Im a perfectionist
And perfect is a skinned knee
Youre perfect, yes, its true
But without me youre only you
Your menstruating heart
It aint bleeding enough for two
Its a midlife crisis...............

I'm a different person off the court than I am on the court, where I'm very competitive, a perfectionist, and I can be hard on myself sometimes. Off the court, nothing really bothers me. I'm easy-going.

But I think Steve's main contribution besides just the pure leadership is his passion for excellence. He's a perfectionist. Good enough isn't good enough. And also his creative spirit. You know he really, really wants to do something great.
