I Try Lyrics - Underrated - Bow Wow

Born 1987, no daddy around 

Just me and my moms, I had to get on my job 

See I got 2 sisters, but I hardly seen em 

You ask why, and I tell you my career s the reason 

2 nephews and I got a couple nieces 

My grandmother so sweet, just like georgia peaches 

I know you mad at me, but we can fix it though 

And I show you know I love you, just to let you know 

See I neglected y all, but now I need y all closer 

Cause nowadays I m feeling like the devil s on my shoulder 

My little sister s 18 and got her own car 

Just so she ain t knocking fast for them young boys 

See I wonder if my dad will see his young granddaughter 

Facing all my obstacles as life gets harder 

And I know that I can make things right 

I gotta start now, don t get a second chance on life 

[Hook] 

I know I ain t perfect, nobody on earth is 

But god I m working, to better myself 

Sure I know that I can, got a daughter to raise 

When all else fails, get on my knees and pray 

It s hard, but I try, get on my knees and pray 

It s hard but I try

Put away my pride, it s ok to cry 

Can we go back to how it used to be 

This distant shit is new to me 

Tryina remain positive, these haters tryina get to me 

Putting on for my daughter, putting on for my aunts 

Me and my moms got a connection like a fiend me and pac 

Yeah, I love my homies like blood brothers 

And even thought we don t talk, I still got love for them 

All my homies on lockdown, doing the bizz 

Try to maintain, keep your head up, kid 

And even thought it s a journey just to make it to the top 

Young and black with a ferrari, I get sweated by the cops 

They don t like you when they young and got more than what they got 

Ths is for the young man hustling on the block 

Shit, you can be whatever, not like me, but better 

When that road get tough, keep your head up 

[Hook] x 2 

I know I ain t perfect, nobody on earth is 

But god I m working, to better myself 

Sure I know that I can, got a daughter to raise 

When all else fails, get on my knees and pray 

It s hard, but I try, get on my knees and pray 

It s hard but I try.
