Songtext zu 'I Tried' von Jin

You noe I had to say sumthin... Jin...do I wait for the beat to drop or do I start here.
Check It. Forget waitin this ain't a feature. This is my tape.

Time waits for no man so why the heck should I wait? I could probably run this town if I like but I'm straight. Take a walk in my shoes. If you choose. SIZE 8.

You might just feel the presence of the holy spirit. They say I'm a changed man if the shoe fits. Wear It.

I used to think that this is just all entertainment. So I didn't said anything I could get away with it. Any consequences I'm the one that's gotta live with it.

The last thing I'm tryin to be now is a hypocrite. Cuz it walks down to way more than I write. Ultimately I'm defined by how I live my life. Knew I had to change my ways to believe what's right. Still today I still got my own deepness to fight.

If I had to do it all on my own no doubt I'd be a goner. But I'll be victorious cuz God is in my corner. The freedom of expression is truly a gift. It can be used to be destroy or used to uplift.

If I had to list my flaws there's plenty I can mention. But thru it all I never had any bad intentions.

Never thot you would take heat to what I say. First and foremost I'd apologize believing you were stray.

Moving right along now is the time to write the wrongs. So I think long n hardly before I start to write a song.

Cuz as an artist for every track that u create it Ain't no way that the impact that u can make.

On one person or society as a whole. I'm hoping thru these lines u can see inside my soul.

Take a hard long look and you'll start to see the light. It's an autobiographical story of my life.

On the cover just a plain book here's the missing factor. I'm on the same book yall are but just a different chapter.

The next generation is headed for disaster. Rappers blame their parents and parents blame rappers.

A lack of substance what you hearin is so hollow. I feel u ain't here to be nobody's role model. I know u tryin to eat no lie. So am I. You shouldn't be offended if what I say just don't imply.

You need more of the truth than the game instead of less. It's bigger than hip hop dead thread said it best.

You're probably like listenin and like who is this guy tryin to tell me how to live. Yeah you're right I don't noe u but I noe I'm positive.

If it's in my power to extend a helping hand. Not even as a rapper but as a fellow man. This is good versus evil it's time to choose a side. I will never be perfect but at least I know I tried.

Ah! Say Somethin.
