I Try

What is black ice?
Oh, oh, look

In the back of my mind feel like cryin' but bitch im a soldier
Thats just some' i cannot do
I been toting that iron, been slanging it too
Bitch i know that you lying, see its just me and you
And yall left me outside to dry, but now im on fire
And your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause im speaking the truth
Bitch im just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
Why lie? When im speakin on my life
Its the platinum on my ice
Feel like i never get mine right
Even though i try, i try, i try
Even though i try, i try, i try

Look i had a dream that one day I'ma become what i wanna be
I gotta keep it a hundred
Its been some time when i was fiending for company
Anybody, i just needed someone with me
Paranoid, know i need me a gun with me
You my brother if you go on a hunt with me
Scratch that, man, them niggas be wannabes
They'll go with you to show they'll slide
Can tell if you real if i look in your eyes
Got no gun in the club, throw a hook when i die
Boy you need to pick up a book, learn a lot
I was crashing back then, im just glad im alive
I could've been dead, im just glad i survived
I'll spit in your face 'fore you fuck up my vibe
And im in the A, swear to god im so high
You can lose your life 'fore anybody know why

Yeah, you know
So niggas, god damn, hit the cut
They get to spraying
I got my stick, shit, my first instinct is to bust it
Know what im saying nigga?
Like "You a rapper, you aint supposed to be doing that"
What the fuck you want me to do, die?

In the back of my mind feel like cryin' but bitch im a soldier
Thats just some' i cannot do
I been toting that iron, been slanging it too
Bitch i know that you lying, see its just me and you
And yall left me outside to dry, but now im on fire
And your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause im speaking the truth
Bitch im just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
Why lie? When im speakin on my life
Its the platinum on my ice
Feel like i never get mine right
Even though i try, i try, i try
Even though i try, i try, i try

Look, and im steady spending
For those of you who be wishing we could switch positions
No, this shit ain't easy you trippin
Im up now most all my friends done went missing
I don't get it, high publicity, i just switch it
I wanna change, my mind stuck in the trenches
Gon' bust that flame to my opponents and finish
I see the boy, i'm smiling, uppin' the semi (Grra)
I can't turn around, won't go back
No, i can't put the gun down, i can never lack
Freak hoe, tell her "turn around" hit it from the back
And everybody know what it is if i got on all black
That lil' fuck nigga big cap, need a tall hat
When i was down on my ass where the fuck was y'all at?
When i was down on my ass where the fuck was you?
Now you asking for some cash, i don't fuck with you
You ain't my people, why lie?
Run up, get hit like five times
Stand up, got four more, thats a whole nine
Four slugs on the floor now
It's overkill, don't scream that shit if you don't know bout it
Lil' overkill, if you looking for me
In the back with some hoes probably

In the back of my mind feel like cryin' but bitch im a soldier
Thats just some' i cannot do
I been toting that iron, been slanging it too
Bitch i know that you lying, see its just me and you
And yall left me outside to dry, but now im on fire
And your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause im speaking the truth
Bitch im just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
Why lie? When im speakin on my life
Its the platinum on my ice
Feel like i never get mine right
Even though i try, i try, i try
Even though i try, i try, i try

What is black ice?
Even though i try, i try, i try
Even though i try, i try, i try
