I Tried Loving
Trippie Redd Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can try, I guarantee the shit won't work
You can die, I guarantee the shit won't hurt
I can't deny, I was fuckin' with you at first
Pain killer in disguise, I can't feel a thing off the Percs

I can't feel, tryna figure out if this shit is real
I can't feel, tryna figure out if this shit real
Rocket got them pints, nah for real

Tryna pop me a motherfucking seal
Big dripping, pussy nigga, real spill
Keep a chopper by my side, a big Galil
With your bitch, tryna Netflix and chill
She don't want you, lil' nigga, what's your deal?
Feel like Bob, pussy nigga, tryna build
Third eye open just like the hills
Try to test me and my niggas gonna kill

Yeah, nah for real, nah for real
No cap, pussy-nigga, nah for real
Nah for real, nah for real
No cap, pussy-nigga, nah for real
Nah for real, nah for real

You can try, I guarantee the shit won't work
You can die, I guarantee the shit won't hurt
I can't deny, I was fuckin' with you at first
Pain killer in disguise, I can't feel a thing off the Percs

Feel the breeze like your ass in a skirt
I'm a chemic in the kitchen like a nerd
Go with killers, they gorillas, go berserk
You a pussy-nigga, better stay in church
Whip it up, Mrs. Butterworth
Tryna get my niggas to go to work
I'ma hit you where it hurts
Leave your pussy-ass right up in the dirt
Bad foreign bitch and she like to flirt
Working good like a clerk
Big ass chopper make you twerk
Put a nigga in a hearse
Put a pussy-nigga on a shirt

Yeah, nah for real, nah for real
No cap, pussy-nigga, nah for real
Nah for real, nah for real
No cap, pussy-nigga, nah for real
Nah for real, nah for real

You can try, I guarantee the shit won't work
You can die, I guarantee the shit won't hurt

I can't deny, I was fuckin' with you at first
Pain killer in disguise, I can't feel a thing off the Percs
