I Tried (feat. Hasan Smith)

For every time I try to do something Right For every time I was fearful for my Life For every time I gambled and rolled The dice For every time I did some dumb ish Twice For every time I reached towards the Sky For every time I question God on Why For every time my thoughts were Suicide For every time I loved her but I lied For every time I had a bad idea For every time I showed I didn't care For every time you said you needed Me there For every time I up and disappeared For every time I instigated a problem For every time I had a negative Outcome For every time my thoughts weren't Sincere For every time I fell victim to my Peers I tried Lord knows I tried I tried Lord knows I tried For every time Rell said bring the Burner For every time I was pushed into a Corner For every time I made my momma Cry For every time I hated on some guy For every time I disobeyed the law For every time I was proud of my Little girl For every time her smile brightened My day For every time I just couldn't relate For every time I disrespected the Hood For every time I said I wish a nigha Would For every time I tried to play it like I'm Suge For every time I had the nine and Couldn't pull For every time Lashawn said don't do It For every time Ashanti called me Foolish For every time I tried to help my Sister For every time I claimed I was Religious I tried Lord knows I tried I tried Lord knows I tried For every time I led her on to be Scorn, now it's time to right all my Wrongs For every time I spoke bad about my Father For every time I put something off For tomorrow For every time I hung up in her ear For every time I really wasn't Prepared For every time I let ya all down For every time I on the mound For every time I smacked it out the Park For every time I felt I lacked heart For every time I felt insecure For every time I couldn't look in the Mirror For every time I was mad for no Reason, my life was a puzzle, yeah no Pieces Hence state my thesis, check out my Bio, your boy three in one triple Threat like fios I tried Lord knows I tried I tried Lord knows I tried Yeah I tried to be the very best I can Heaven knows I'm only a man I tried I tried I tried to be the very best I can Heaven knows I only a man I tried I tried
