Try Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ask me about me again
You know it hurts to feel it
You should read between these-
Ask me about me again
Even when my heart declines
Nothing works when I don't
Go 'head try me
'Cause I'm safe behind these walls
Think you can take me through the fog where I'm no challenge
Childish, childish
Yeah, you, you can try me
[Chorus]
I've changed?
There's only been one thing that I've changed
Nothin' is ever enough
I don't have to tell you what I've changed, oh-oh, no
'Cause I couldn't tell you that I've changed (Changed)
There's only been one thing that has changed (Changed, changed)
Nothin' is ever enough (Changed)
I don't have to tell you what I've changed, no-oh, no
'Cause I couldn't tell you that-
[Verse 2]
I, I think too fast at times
I try to keep it out
But it don't work even though I try to forget that
Even though I try to forget that
I know that it's hard to ignore it
I know that it's heartless to play me
Go 'head try me
[Chorus]
I've changed?
There's only been one thing that I've changed
Nothin' is ever enough
I don't have to tell you what I've changed, oh-oh, no
'Cause I couldn't tell you that I've changed (Changed)
There's only been one thing that has changed
Nothin' is ever enough (Changed)
I don't have to tell you what I've changed, no-oh
'Cause I couldn't tell you that
[Verse 3]
Hoping I've learnt
Take back your word
Might hurt, but I won't hide
I know myself, I know I wasn't
The only one that has been through what I have today
Can you wait for this second?
To please somebody else other than your needs
You've got a lot left on these sleeves
But your heart's not on your sleeve
Try to believe me though
Gotta listen, gotta learn, gotta live, gotta fight, gotta earn
And your mind's made up on me
I say your mind's made up on me
Gotta live, gotta learn

new fave song 🤭🌷🩷🌸🎀

Jorja's voice is just incredible. It feels strong, vulnerable, and seductive all at the same time. I also love the use of echo for the chorus, her ambient ad-libs in the backing vocals give me goosebumps. And the music video is awesome, it's got creative symbolism but doesn't feel pretentious or anything. Like its minimalistic but still epic. She is an artistic powerhouse. Im so excited for the new album!

The song and visuals are so top notch. There’s nothing like having the visuals bring every bit of a record to life ❤️

Everyone’s talking about the song and Jorja, which are both phenomenal, but I have never been more enamoured with a video before. The whole concept of the “bull and bull fighter” - him charging her in the start 1:44, his raw animalistic movements 2:13, circling each other in the centre of the ring 3:15, her finally conquering him in the end 3:26 - unbelievably beautiful. Even the violin scene comes from so much imagination 2:36. The artistry and irony of her being played like a violin in the relationship, always asking to change but it’s never enough, to her literally playing him in the end because he thought he had all the power to change her but instead she changed herself for better in spite of him. And to top everything off, what an ingenious way to end a video of a male and female, humans, visually expressing their emotions through their natural animalistic selves by showing the creatures they’re mimicking with the praying mantis 3:36. Just as in the video, in nature, the female has all the power, conquering the male after taking what she needs from him. This is what true art is.

You get it!!!!! EVERYTHING YOU SAID! I literally cried at this video esp because how the song makes me feel! He was “jumping thru all of these hoops” trying to show “strength and dominance” while she was standing tall and looking gorgeous af ! He did all of that just to get conquered in the end by a queen who knows her worth!!!!
