For the last couple of weeks I have been hearing these interesting lyrics in a song that is being used to promote the upcoming season of "Being Mary Jane" on the BET Network. Finally, I located the song and lyrics and decided to share it with our readers.

Flawed Beautiful Creatures by Stacy Barthe

Sometimes we're insecure, we're fragile
Sometimes we laugh at each other to make ourselves feel better
Sometimes we lie, sometimes we say things
That we really don't mean
But in the moment, seem like the thing to do

[Chorus:]
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures

Is it a crime if a man kills to protect his own from harm's way?
Who will be the judge anyway?
What would you have done if the gun was in your hands
Feet were in his shoes?
Guess you'll never know what you won't do
'Cause in the moment might seem like the thing to do

[Chorus:]
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures

Sometimes we gotta lose it to find it
We gotta lose
Sometimes we win, we live a while then gotta die
Why? Why?

[Chorus:]
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures
We're all flawed beautiful people
We're all flawed beautiful creatures.
