    I ain't spotless, neither is you
    For once in my life, I'm gonna see it through
    If you want spotless, I'll always los?
    I don't want love, lover, I want the truth


    Bryan and Schultz want to confront the challenges and imperfections that come with love, rooted in a foundation of truth and honesty.
