Try Again (feat. Concrete & Stylo)

[Intro: Ryan)

Is it alright that I'm trying?

Is it alright that I'm trying?

I'm just trying to find another way

Out the trap, everything I do I gotta pray

Somebody on the corner talking how they moving weight

But if you moving weight then why the fuck you getting paid?

I'm out here trying to hustle, do this shit for everyone

And anybody that done showed me love, I got 'em son

And I'm the one that's riding around with the shotgun

If the drama coming then you know that I'ma pop some

I keep it real, never faking when I got a grip

And if I got a hundred you can take fifty kid

And that's just how it is when you living powerless

Living in a government world run by a coward bitch

And I ain't ever couldn't stop it when I get mine

And I'm just trying to shine dog, trying to live right

No hesitation, trying to slip by

The devil watching you moving up but

He's trying to keep you at the bottom

Now fuck a problem man, everybody got 'em

It's all about how you solve 'em, in the barrel I revolve 'em

I'm sick and tired of all this hatred and attacking

When you see 'em in the streets dog they gon' keep it quiet

It's like I'm always with the shit, a snail in the mud

And even when I got a grip, I'm still to the drugs

But I'm just trying to get ahead

The only promise in my future's winding up dead

Let's try again

Is it alright that I'm trying?

Am I gon' make it through the nights when I'm crying?

Why sometimes we gotta deal with all this shit, pain?

Man I'm just sick and tired, so sick and tired

When the fuck do we get a chance?

Oh no, so let's try again

Stuck in a world where I'm forced to be a workaholic

Lord talk to your son 'cause I'm lacking knowledge

And I acknowledge I'm a man but I'm easy falling

So I pray for you son, know the demons calling

I just want a better life that I never had

Gotta get a handle on it cause this shit is havoc

Made peace with my past now I'm moving forward

Lord knows it fucked me up to see my friend lowered

Missed the birth of my second and I'm slowly regretting

They say time heals all but I'll never forget it

It's a pact that I made now I gotta get it

And I tell myself off 'til that shit was embedded

Everybody got problems and issues

The good ones, the bad ones, the memories, the pictures

I'm just trying to live it all, ain't a moment I'm missing

'Cause I came a long way from trying to piss in the kitchen

Mom sat there crying, thought it was a done deal

'Cause guns kill

Where I'm from gang banging is real

And if you ain't with the shit then ma, don't chill

Guess we all gotta learn the hard way

Trying to stay, tunnel vision in the hallway

Everybody got demons that we all hate

Everybody got demons that we all hate

Is it alright that I'm trying?

Am I gon' make it through the nights when I'm crying?

Why sometimes we gotta deal with all this shit, pain?

Man I'm just sick and tired, so sick and tired

When the fuck do we get a chance?

Oh no, so let's try again

Pops told me there'd be days like this

There'd be people that'd wanna see us chained by the wrist

Beat you like a drum while they yell, "Don't resist"

So I made my own lane, my revenge is success

I just call it how I see it and I'm living how I ride

Ain't give a fuck what they be thinking, how I do it I'm deciding

Gotta watch my back, I ain't lacking, I ain't dying

Ma forgive me that I'm strapped, lord knows that I'm trying

Feel like Travy 'cause I'm trapped in, devil pulled me back in

Got a tainted soul but I'm searching for a path in

Honest with myself trying to catch a break

Survival of the fittest when you're hungry for a plate

Gritting every minute so my daughter living great

Hopefully the music motivating homies who ain't straight

Teeter-totter off a thin line, why they try to kill mine?

Slap us in the face, if you don't see it boy you been blind

You should take a second and just check it

Gotta find a better method 'cause my future's what I'm repping

What I reckon's that they wanna see me stepping but I'm next in

Screaming motherfuck a doubter, getting pounds is what I'm flexing

Daddy told me to be solid and I'm still here

Never folded, thought I told you I don't show fear

I know I'm finna make it, vision getting so clear

Wipe my slate clean one more time, shedding no tears

Is it alright that I'm trying?

Am I gon' make it through the nights when I'm crying?

Why sometimes we gotta deal with all this shit, pain?

Man I'm just sick and tired, so sick and tired

When the fuck do we get a chance?

Oh no, so let's try again
