Im Trying Lyrics

If I said it, you wouldn't listen, so I let him talk to you

I'm trying to be faithful, but baby, it's hard

It's so hard

I'm not saying I'm ungrateful, cause we done been through it all

I know we been through a lot, but..

For the good times, bad times, I stay pure with my heart

Why did I give up this time

Why did I give up this time

Come on, what you want me to do

Fame come with the force, and the hoes come with the floss

And it all come with the music, don't confuse it

Love come with the pain, the gain come with the loss

And free come to the cause, I walk you through it

Good comes with the bad, the struggle comes with the life

And understanding comes with being a wife

That's why I keep my faith in God

Cause everything a nigga got, he worked for so hard

To try and reinvent the wheel, when that's the only shape to roll

Go against the will, when I'm the one to make you whole

Think you're getting under my skin, but you ain't making me hot

You're just making my heart cold

That's why I'm trying to learn you, before I should burn you

Too much weight on your shoulder could cause a hernia

But you're small, then you won't give up

You need my help when you're falling, and you can't get up

I'm trying to be faithful, but baby, it's hard

It's so hard

I'm not saying, I'm ungrateful

Cause we done been through it all

All the good times, bad times

I stay pure with my heart

But I'ma tell you a thing or two, mom

You gotta give up this time

You must not be in and out

You gotta give up this time

Look, she gonna be rocking your chiller fur if I let you go

It's not a threat, mom, just trying to let you know

I ain't the type to make you leave and leave your shit behind

I let her remind you on how I's one of a kind

Or how real love is hard to find

I walk away with no doubts like Gwen Stefani

So I keep my faith in God

Cause everything a nigga gotta work for's so hard

Oh Lord, please grant him the strength

To greet the haters when I'm rolling in them vents

Fishbowl and never hide behind a tent

Princesses got a feeling like a prince

But it's the king and me deserve the queen and you

But I don't know what the word us means to you

Cause if what it meant to me, it meant to you

You let the storm pass by and the sun shine through

I'm trying to be faithful

But baby, it's hard

I'm not saying I'm ungrateful

Cause we done been through it all

All the good times, bad times

I stay pure with my heart

What should I give up this time

What should I give up this time

What you want? My arm, leg, leg

My other arm, head

My popularity, the salary, the bread

Switch faces, take my cases with the feds

Whole real nigga loving you instead

Your head, love, I'll let you tell it

I've been shitting all along if I let you tell it

That's why I keep my faith in God

Cause everything a nigga gotta work for's so hard

It's like my good is overlooked

A nigga never gave you shit, he just took

So somehow you got him feeling like a crook

We ain't on the same page cause we in the different books

I write him, you read him

But one way or another, baby girl, you realize that you needed him

But you was way too stubborn and mistreated him

So he walked out of your life like good evening

I'm trying to be faithful

But baby, it's hard

I'm not saying I'm ungrateful

Cause we done been through it all

All the good times, bad times

But the good with my heart

What should I give up this time

What should I give up this time
