Try
[Chorus]
Lit a cigarette and jumped into bed alone
Them drugs is kickin' in and my bottle's gettin' low
I thought, "What if I just burned down this home?"
Laid back and watched the flames, least I'd go out with a glow
'Cause I try, yes, I try
But now I'd rather swallow these pills 'fore I swallow my pride
Yeah, I try, yes, I try
But as I hold this forty-five, all I see's my mama's eyes and I cry

[Verse 1]
Just did my final line through the straw that broke the camel's back
'Cause I glare up in the mirror, I see a demon staring back
Try and run towards the light, but I'd rather fade to black
And they say the future's bright, but it keeps on spotlighting my past
So I feel beat down, strеssed out, tryna fit in, but I'm left out
Just closed my еyes and seen Heaven's gates, I swear to God I feel blessed now
When you come to face defeat, it put strength up in the weak
So I'm lyin' here just smilin' as these tears roll down my cheek

[Chorus]
Lit a cigarette and jumped into bed alone
Them drugs is kickin' in and my bottle's gettin' low
I thought, "What if I just burned down this home?"
Laid back and watched the flames, least I'd go out with a glow
'Cause I try, yes, I try
But now I'd rather swallow these pills 'fore I swallow my pride
Yeah, I try, yes, I try
But as I hold this forty-five, all I see's my mama's eyes and I cry
[Outro]
Lit a cigarette and jumped into bed alone
Them drugs is kickin' in and my bottle's gettin' low
I thought, "What if I just burned down this home?"
Laid back and watched the flames, least I'd go out with a glow
'Cause I try
