Play it back
Play it back
I'm Trying
Aye
Baby we could take things slow
You act like that's a bad thing
Maybe it's because I'm broke
I got a few things bottled up inside
Trying to write my wrongs
While I'm choking on my pride
My momma taught me better
So we'll be alright
Yea
But watch me go and smooth up
Just the two of us
Stick together like a glue gun
We could do some
Take you on another vacay
Have a great day
In the middle of the rain staying
Warm inside
I see you singing every song
Like you're supposed to be
You're my number one fan
So say a prayer for me
Said I'm a superstar
Baby that's a bit of a reach
Who'd ever thought I'd live this life
Lying through their teeth
Give me a chance
I gotta get to the bag today
Go cancel your plans
This is a moment you have to take
You better believe me
Nobody said it was easy
Changing it up like the seasons
Barely could breathe
Had to go tell me relax
Cause I had to
Baby we could take things slow
You act like that's a bad thing
Maybe it's because I'm broke
And always end in last place
I got a few things bottled up inside
Trying to write my wrongs
While I'm choking on my pride
My momma taught me better
So we'll be alright
Said we'll be alright

This one goes crazy bro
This song is intense and out of the ordinary
Play it back
Listen to it again
I'm Trying
I'm making an effort
Aye
Hey
Baby we could take things slow
We can move at a relaxed pace
You act like that's a bad thing
You perceive it negatively
Maybe it's because I'm broke
Perhaps because I don't have much money
And always end in last place
And consistently come in last
I got a few things bottled up inside
I have suppressed emotions
Trying to write my wrongs
Attempting to correct my mistakes
While I'm choking on my pride
While my ego is suffocating me
My momma taught me better
My mother raised me with good values
So we'll be alright
So everything will turn out fine
But watch me go and smooth up
But observe how I become more polished
Just the two of us
Only the two of us
Stick together like a glue gun
Stay united like glue sticks things together
We could do some
We can accomplish great things
Take you on another vacay
Go on another vacation with you
Have a great day
Enjoy a wonderful day
In the middle of the rain staying
In the midst of rain, staying dry
Warm inside
Feeling comforted
I see you singing every song
I notice you singing along with every song
Like you're supposed to be
As if it's your role or destiny
You're my number one fan
You are my most devoted supporter
So say a prayer for me
Ask for blessings or guidance on my behalf
Said I'm a superstar
Claimed that I am a famous and successful person
Baby that's a bit of a reach
But that is somewhat exaggerated
Who'd ever thought I'd live this life
Who could have imagined I would lead this existence
Lying through their teeth
Dishonestly proclaiming
Give me a chance
Allow me an opportunity
I gotta get to the bag today
I need to earn money today
Go cancel your plans
Abandon your scheduled activities
This is a moment you have to take
This is a crucial opportunity
You better believe me
You should trust what I say
Nobody said it was easy
No one claimed it would be simple
Changing it up like the seasons
Adapting and evolving like the changing seasons
Barely could breathe
Struggling to catch my breath
Had to go tell me relax
Someone had to remind me to calm down
Cause I had to
Because it was necessary
So we'll be alright
So everything will turn out fine
Said we'll be alright
Stated that we will be fine
