lyrics

I TRY


A lack of heart is easy,
Can't hang when tested.
Spirit broke, soul pawned
But don't shit the bed
When the pressures on.

Like in battle when I'm dragging the weight,
Please don't fuck with me.
A beast that's been beaten and chained
Can't kill what's meant to be.

Cuz at the end of the day
What have I got to show?
My family, this band, my job's all I fucking know
Or care about.
A college degree didn't set me free
That was a lie.
Now when I look in the mirror
At least I try.

At least I try.

It's only natural that I give a fuck
Cuz even with bad luck,
I'll fight that shit to the end.
Or when you gotta turn your back.
Sometimes they don't know how to act.
You gotta shed sometimes
Even if they're your friends.
At least I try.
