(Featuring Ben Carew)
2
(Talking: D-Mac)
3
Sound so soulful don't you agree?
4
Ay let me talk to these niggas
5
Walk with me..Just walk with me
6
(Verse 1: D-Mac)
7
Ay what you know bout being broke as fuck growing up?
8
Hitting your homies up to hold their stuff?
9
We went to different schools so it was cool
10
Gripping tools, pocket full of candy wrappers
11
Summer days, slurping frozen cups then hit the pool
12
Hoping stuff like soon I'm gonna be a famous rapper
13
Can't be no slouch, if I wanna be in Big Tigger house or on that couch
14
On 106, with AJ & Free, or Terrance & Rocsi, can't nobody stop me I guarantee
15
That I will never let a soul get in the way of thee
16
Shit I wanted since 8, imma die living great
17
Elevate til I'm a heavyweight
18
Doing shit I aint proud of each and everyday
19
Cut your throat no hesitation bout my fucking pay
20
I'm strapped and sliding through my city trying to get away
21
Hey, can't end up like my friends, I'm one wrong move from it
22
I pray the Lord guides my steps, and leads me to success
23
Can't let the love of money make me make the wrong choice
24
I'm only human everyday I fall short, But at least he know's I'm trying
25
God I hope you know I'm trying
26
Man I'm trying, I hope you know I'm trying
27
Im trying.. I'm trying"¦
28
(Chorus: Ben Carew)
29
I'm trying, I'm trying
30
I'm trying, I'm trying
31
(Verse 2: D-Mac)
32
Please, don't leave me
33
I know loving me aint easy but believe me Imma get it right, in a minute I'm
34
Living life, growing going through the motions
35
With so many doors open it gets hard for me to focus
36
On which ones I should be closing and be walking in
37
But you're the air I breathe baby you're my oxygen and I've been letting toxic in
38
The bright lights from the night life can become addictive
39
As well as the thrill of being inside of different women
40
So I be cheating every chance I get
41
One night stands I aint the man for that romantic shit
42
But let you talk to niggas, I can't handle it
43
Quick to call it quits, the nerve of me, double standard shit
44
For what it's worth it's no emotions I just hit and quit
45
No strings attached with them dummies, I'm a ventriloquist
46
But the motto goes, what you don't treasure, you gonna lose that shit
47
I keep saying that I love you, time to prove that shit, Man I'm trying
48
I hope she know's I'm trying
49
I'm trying, man I'm trying
50
Trying"¦trying"¦..
51
(Chorus: Ben Carew)
52
I'm trying, I'm trying
53
I'm trying, I'm trying
54
(Verse 3: D-Mac)
55
Make my mama proud, hold my partners down
56
Whether they're free or not, I know it's only me they got
57
To give them a chance to see something more than the streets
58
Hoping we aint the next getting tucked in coroners sheets, sleep
59
To never wake again, I pray before my day begins
60
The Lord to shield my body, cleanse my spirit, wash away my sins
61
Cuz hanging with my friends we used to rob niggas
62
Some of my niggas selling weed, pills, and hard's nigga
63
Man what you expect dog? times hard nigga
64
It aint like we could up and go and get a job nigga
65
And why the application process so long nigga?
66
Just to show up and they be like "hell naw nigger"
67
Even the qualified sing the same song nigga
68
Graduated college, end up working at a call center
69
Dear Obama, please fix the economy
70
Better days ahead they gotta be, I pray to God he see we all trying
71
We trying"¦Trying
72
(Chorus: Ben Carew)
73
I'm trying, I'm trying
74
I'm trying, I'm trying
75
(Bridge: Ben Carew)
76
I'm trying to be a man, provide for my family
77
And keep it 100 in the streets
78
Said I'm trying to find a wife, I could share my life with
79
And stay up out the sheets with these freaks
80
Said I'm trying to make a living, stay away from prison
81
And not become another murder victim
82
Said I'm trying, I'm trying
83
(Verse 4: Ben Carew)
84
Raised in the streets where they teach you keep it real
85
Stay up on your grind, mind on the dollar bill
86
Reach for the stars, pray you make it far
87
Gotta get it on your own, go hard or you starve
88
Tell me is you with it baby?
89
Cuz daddy trying to get it baby
90
I'm trying I'm trying
91
(Chorus: Ben Carew)
92
I'm trying, I'm trying
93
I'm trying, I'm trying
94
I'm trying, I'm trying
95
I'm trying, I'm trying
