Try - Intellectual

[Intro]

I ain’t gonna try no more

I’m just gonna do it

Flowers don’t have to try to grow, they just bloom

The Sun don’t have to try to shine, he just do

So why do I have to try to be

Something other than me

I’m trying to stay real , fo’ me

And trying to stay true, fo’ you

What you expect for me to do?

When trying doesn't work like it’s supposed to

I ain’t gonna try

I ain’t gonna try no more

I’m just gonna do it

Yes..!

If doesn't any thing

I tried to be, it someone who speaks with honesty

A person who, won’t take personally

Who makes summons about things people say to me

I take it for what it is

No more, no less

Except the motivation

For me, to do my best

I tried school,it was cool, aced all of my classes

Tried working with the youth,but they are some rude ass kids

Tried Corporate America, you know the suit and tie thing

Took a couple of years to figure out it wasn't my thang

Money was nice but I didn’t have a life

Plus I put my whole game for a wife on ice

And I don’t even watch sports,but I was feeling like a hokey puck

Let me quit before I go post through they lock me up

His the studio,hit the mother continents

My records hit the shells ,they hit me with compliments

I was trying new things, so trying to sing

Some people was like “What the hell you doing?”

“Look at him , Ah!he just trying to be different”

But I wasn't tying , I am , look at my pigment

And look where I grew up at

And look where I been

Do not ever try to tell me that trying again

I’m just doin’ it

Just being me

That’s all I ever want it to be
