Mistakes
H.E.R.O Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the perfect mistake to make
To wait for waiting's sake
It's the perfect mistake to make
But maybe I aint really waiting for waiting's sake
I said yeah maybe I be waiting to make my fate
Maybe it's already too late yeah yeah
Might not make 6 six figures in an office
Break it bigger than a promise
Might stay honest
Might not
Might stay on it like you want it
Working 9 till 5
But I won't rectify
I'll be the first to defy
Might fight might flight
My right
Might die young too
Might live long through
In the name of the father I say
Just like Sinatra this shits done my way
But even the father I do not obey
Living my life yeah a little bit grey
Cos nothings black and white like the way that they want it
There's no wrong or right this shit true yeah I'm honest
Don't bow to no bishop
Don't bow to no monarch
Just be you yeah the tonic
The number one
Número uno
Like you know
Outta that ring like sumo
But outta space like a pluto
Spray ya up make u cuto
Making plays like casino no Valentino
I don't kill just make bill like Tarantino
Or al Pacino but u ain't my little friend
Don't pretend just ascend
Cos now I've had my fun
I'm done no need to run
Just sit back and watch the sun
Fade to the moon
To the moon
It's lunar gloom
Still Got me dreaming of a novice time
All the time
Im not Keanu
Nine to five for the office time
I'm a humble guy
Would rather maybe be some other place right now
I'm lost, I can't see life now
Though i used to be relevant, elegant
I don't like talking about elegance
In my ivory tower, whilst Im coasting on my elephant of excellence
Your name could be Ang
Traditionally sung ye
Master of the elements
Sang, was my fame
When I lived in my dream town
I signed off my name
To a corporate big crown
The gown of fate got me trippin as of late
My feet,bare weight, the prince is late
and my slippers of glass left nothing but shards
So I turn to the path of divinity
Riddled with lies was my fucking altercation with the trinity
Carrie-anne moss better sit on my face
I'll call Jeri Hogarth when I pick up a case
Oh what?
Purie thc mix it with some cbd
Tokin with posers man these people really are not for me
Incredible stories man i'll believe it when I see it G
Apparently flawless but im hearing it when you go off key
Dirty ash for masquerade that's not for me
Making beats and getting paid dont work free
Imperfect I make mistakes but still gonn' eat
Gold plated cutlery muching on my huckleberry
Mm food
The Rap snitches never know they queue
You Under pressure so you over do
I need Fame money think it's over due
Sellin' out i play it like the who
Yeh
Beats home grown in london I ship 'em to La
Network the industry so my wiki just my twitter page
Handle the enemies like im thanos on his wedding day
Im Diamond in the rough
You like needle in the fucking hay
It's the perfect mistake to make
To wait for waiting's sake
It's the perfect mistake to make
But maybe I aint really waiting for waiting's sake
You see
Mistaking perfection
In the form of affection
Will not quite lead to the wanted direction
You were born to thrive
So don't mourn just strive
Live out your dreams
Living is pleasant




A mistake is more than what it seems
So let it perfect your present

Overall Meaning

The song "Mistakes" by H.E.R.O is a composition that delves into the uncertainties of life and the mistakes that arise from such situations. The lyrics are a contemplation of the consequences of waiting for something for too long and the impact of making mistakes in the quest to attain one's dreams. The repetition of the line "It's the perfect mistake to make" offers an insight into the acknowledgement that every mistake made leads to a lesson that perfects one's future decisions.


The artist is conflicted about whether he is waiting for the right time to make his mark on the world or if he is indeed procrastinating. He acknowledges that he may not achieve success in the traditional way, by having a high paying job in an office, but that he would pursue his version of success that aligns with his values. The idea of living life in "grey," and being true to oneself regardless of societal expectations is highlighted.


The song's chorus repeats the phrase "It's the perfect mistake to make," which may suggest that the act of making mistakes is inevitable and necessary for growth. The lyrics urge the listeners to accept their imperfections and use them to perfect their present reality.

@Puddle Slime pharah is always a good pocket target because being in the air is preferable for mercy. just make sure you don't hold jump the entire time on descent. it's good to make your movement in the air unpredictable by falling normally, holding jump, and holding crouch (this makes your descent speed up, opposite of holding jump) with a varying pattern. hold damage boost by default, and flick to heals when needed (you can press both at the same time, at least on pc). if you and the enemy team have widow, make sure you boost her (if she's in a safe position) because she will need less charge on her scope to kill the other widow.

a good frame of reference for who to boost is damage break points. for example, pharah without boost takes 3 indirect rockets to kill a 200 hp target but with damage boost it only takes 2. numbers are subject to change in ow2 so i won't give more examples, just know that mercy damage boost is currently at 30%.

spam heroes (like junkrat, symmetra, and to some extent mei) are never a bad boost target, and a cassidy that stays with the team is a great one.

situationally, it's good to check your team's ult statuses frequently. anyone who is close (75% or so) to ult should take priority over others. obvious exceptions being flankers unless you have a way to get back to the team safely.

one final tip: make sure you boost rein's fire strikes! he doesn't have opportunity to build ult otherwise, until the enemy engages.

RaidenRi

@nars_bars nah man thats not the only annoying thing they also don’t heal you after seeing you die over and over again even after getting a triple kill 💀 (like 38% of Mercy players do that)

@Alexx Overwatch 1.5 not even top 15 in Twitch viewers, lagging behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Dead by Daylight and FIFA 22 OMEGALUL. cope harder with your dead game, not even a true sequel more of an expansion to an already shit game. OW Devs are clueless.
