I Tried (Explicit)

I Tried - The Hit Crew

Bone Thugs Akon yeah

You know though nothin' come easy

You gotta try real real hard

I tried hard but I guess I gotta try harder

I tried so hard can't seem

To get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but always

Be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault cause I tried to

Get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin one day

You'll come and rescue me

But until then I'll be posted up

Right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then I'll be posted up

Right here with my heat gettin dough

First let me explain that I'm just a black man

And I come from the darkside

So I'm havin a hard time stayin' on track man

My mind be racin' and I don't

Even know what I'm chasin yet

Been in and out of relationships

I'm startin' to see that it's me where the complication's at

But I'm layin' back prayin' that you

Get that piece of mind of me

I thought I was right but really I'm wrong

Then again I was too blind to see

I was in the fast lane chasin my dream

And then it seemed when the fame

And cash came they just got me

Goin' crazy lately I been so faded tryna erase it

But I just can't cause the drama just grows greater

And I been in so many collisions from puttin **** off till later

I tried so hard can't seem to

Get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but always

Be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault cause I tried to

Get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin

One day you'll come and rescue me

But until then I'll be posted up right

Here rain sleet hail snow

But until then I'll be posted up

Right here with my heat gettin dough

It's like I'm takin five steps

Forward and ten steps back

Tryin get ahead of the game

But I can't seem to get it on track

And I keep runnin away the ones

That say they love me the most

How could I create the distance

When it's supposed to be close

And uh I just don't know

But I be out here fightin demons

And it's like a curse that

I can't shake this part of Cleveland

And Lord would you help me

And stop this pain I keep inflinctin on my family

Hustlin and gamblin drinkin' and scramblin'

And losin sight of what I supposed to be handlin'

It's hard to manage cause every days a challenge

And man I'm slippin can't lose my balance

I'm tryin not to panic

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault cause I tried to

Get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin one

Day you'll come and rescue me

But until then I'll be posted up

Right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then I'll be posted up

Right here with my heat gettin dough

I see thangs won't change I'm stuck in the game

As soon as I get out it keeps pullin me back man

Got me doin' dirty dirt so used to this hustlin' money

That I don't understand no nine to five work

Studied on the streets hustlers know what I mean

Thugsters ballin' before us I'm tryna make that major league

So we never leave never 'til the sun came up

Gotta get it no no leavin no grudge

Today games they play

Gotta go hard to get what you put in

If you fall off then its all on you

Gotta watch what you sign too

Try so hard but I won't play the fool

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault cause I tried to get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin one day you'll come and rescue me

But until then I'll be posted up right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin dough
