Verse One: B.G.
|
|
I'm tryin' to do right
|
But I'm surrounded by wrong
|
Avoid the all night flight
|
And still make it on my own
|
I'm tryin' be cool
|
Do what I gotta do
|
But playa haters all over
|
So I roll with my crew
|
I'm tryin' stay over
|
And just stay my ass in school
|
Ain't many choices to choose
|
And this rap game I can't refuse
|
I wanna win don't want to be the one to loose
|
My pistol my only friend
|
Cause busters try to bring the blues
|
Leavin brains with no clues
|
Spin the ben in black clothes
|
They tryin' ta' take my only life
|
Leave my folks on the front row
|
Bury me in providence
|
Heavy weight that rose
|
They wanna steal the B.G.
|
Now tell me Alton
|
Ain't that cold
|
What can I do
|
Now what can I do to get out the game
|
What can I do
|
Now what can I do to make change
|
Every other day around my way niggas dyin'
|
Hours flyin I want to go straight boy I'm tryin'
|
|
-Chorus- (Juvenile)
|
I'm tryin' to shake the monkey off of me
|
Lord please let me go where I needs to be
|
Ball 'till I fall it's a poor family
|
Fo' sho' I know the future got a lot of stuff for me
|
|
Verse Two: B.G.
|
|
I'm tryin' to get my mail straight
|
Sell cd's and tapes
|
I don't want to be jail bait
|
Niggas want to kill me
|
And increase the hell rate
|
They almost got me
|
But I slip the spot it was too late
|
I wanna be a role model for my lil' brother
|
And buy a fifteen room manison for my mother
|
Settle down wit' a silent hoe
|
And drop a tight seed
|
So I can raise another uptown B.G.
|
Just like me
|
I'ma give 'em but I wish had a dad
|
He goin' be smart and bad nigga
|
Throwin' up a solga rag
|
This world is kurupted
|
The police is crooked
|
My boy was runnin with a ??? gun
|
His young life they took it
|
This ??? is rotten
|
Everyday it get's colder
|
They throwin' away the key
|
Sendin' the soldiers to angoula
|
My round slangin' that yola
|
With they hand on that iron
|
To keep my mind right
|
Beleive nigga I'm tryin'
|
|
-Chorus-
|
|
Verse Three: Lil' Wayne
|
|
I'm tryin' to be a man at fourteen
|
Choppin iron at fourteen'
|
Nigga that tells my only way
|
(B.G.: Look where you stand at fourteen)
|
A lil' bity something
|
Whuckin, representin' partners
|
Ain't to good in my neighborhood
|
Uptowns my partner
|
I ain't lie i'm tryin
|
To go the right way
|
But the night flight way
|
Just ain't the right way
|
I wan' be a gangsta but also wan' live
|
So I choose to be a uptown HotBoy hard to kill
|
Sittin' behind the cruiser wheel
|
Can't even see me I'm so lil'
|
And you expect me to give this
|
Just to switch to positive
|
As hard as I'm tryin' do it I just can't make a shape
|
School I'm tryin' go through it but I just can't make a shape
|
Gettin' in beef that resultin' into serious gun slangin
|
Do good I want yeah but on half i just keep hangin'
|
I'm lookin for a change but change ain't lookin for me
|
Will I remain a B.G.
|
Or a A student
|
We'll see
|
|
-Chorus- 2x
|
|

I'm Tryin'
