I Tried Lyrics

[Intro: cj Fly with oshun]
Statik Selektah
Fly
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey-hey
Hey-hey, hey-hey

[Chorus: cj Fly with Thandi]
Swear you got me speechless, don't know what to say
Yeah, thought it would get better, we've had darker days
Loved you way too much for me to walk away
Everything you did ain't make me wanna stay

[Verse 1: cj Fly]
Know you probably hate me now
Ain't been said, but I could tell
I could see you ain't been well
Actin' out, you ain't yourself
Drinking more, that ain't gon' help
That ain't too good for your health
Played with the hands I was dealt
Couldn't fight how I had felt

[
[Refrain]: cj Fly]
I gave you all I had, uh-huh
You left me holdin' scraps, uh-huh
Now there's no comin' back, uh-huh
And I'm the one that's sad, uh-huh
Ain't want to waste my breathe, uh-uh
Can't take back what you said, uh-huh
I won't ever forget, uh-uh
I don't have no regrets

[Chorus: Thandi]
Swear you got me speechless, don't know what to say
Thought it would get better we've had darker days
Loved you way too much for me to walk away
Everything you did ain't make me wanna stay

[Verse 2: Niambi]
Should I flow like the river do?
Or should I burn hot like my spirit do?
You know I'm hot-headed, sorry I offended you
I'm really tryin' to be spiritual
But, I'm really tired of defendin' you
Why you cryin'? Yo, you know that you been bitter too
So walk it like you talk, all that goin' off at the mouth, shut it off
All that disregard for my heart, Lord [
[Refrain]: Thandi]
I gave you all I had, mhm
And you gave nothin' back, mhm
And there's no comin' back, mhm
And you the one that's sad, ah
Ain't gonna waste my breath
I remember what you said
I won't ever forget, uh
I hope you regret this

[Verse 3: Niambi]
Yo, I don't want this anymore, I can't believe I said it
You looked me in my eye and lied, I knew you meant it
You got my mind f*cked up, I'm lost and feel demented
Them level of the disrespect has been unprecedented, damn
I tried my best to ride, but you were never focused
I kept my thoughts inside, and now I'm lookin' hopeless
So now it's time to get out, like Get Out
Your love is my demise
If I'm wise I'll realize you been pullin' me down
You a clown and a child and I ain't your momma
I can't live with this drama, we just smoke marijuana
f*ck and argue like a sauna, heated
I feel defeated and I know you do too, this ain't for me and you
We've become so consumed and we never in tune
I don't know what to do with you, uh

[Chorus: oshun]
Swear you got me speechless, don't know what to say
Thought it would get better, we've had darker days
Loved you way too much for me to walk away
Everything you did ain't make me wanna stay

[Outro: cj Fly]
I tried, I tried
I tried my best just to work things out
I tried my best just to make things work
I've cried, I've cried
I've cried because I ain't wanna feel hurt
I've cried because I ain't wanna feel hurt
