dax - diary of a trying man lyrics
[chorus]
i keep tryna move on, i gps all my thoughts
but they lead me to places that gon’ hurt me inside
i’ve been tryna stay strong, but when the memories sp+wn
i gotta chase ’em with whiskey ’cause they run on my mind
can’t turn the radio on because they only play songs
that take me back to those days and all those late+night drives
when you’d lay on my arm, tell me what i’d do wrong
and i would look in your face and say, “but girl, i try” (but girl, i try)
i’ll try (i’ll try)
i tried (i tried)
i tried to be the man that you wanted, but i couldn’t provide
[verse 1]
twenty+one, i was young, dumb, livin’, chasin’ dreams
tryna go from a boy to a man
i gave my hеart to a pretty little demon who was askin’ for thе world and a disney romance
she valued money, not the substance that i had
i was buildin’ for the future, but she couldn’t understand
that a diamond only shines over time under pressure that’s applied from my disciplined hand
she let me go, then she moved away
said she could do better, and i was a man she could replace
said i wasn’t worth it and the memories that we had made was just wrong time, wrong place, and all a mistake
[chorus]
i keep tryna move on, i gps all my thoughts (i keep tryna move on, girl)
but they lead me to places that gon’ hurt me inside
i’ve been tryna stay strong, but when the memories sp+wn
i gotta chase ’em with whiskey ’cause they run on my mind
can’t turn the radio on because they only play songs (i can’t turn that radio on)
that take me back to those days and all those late+night drives
when you’d lay on my arm, tell me what i’d do wrong
and i would look in your face and say, “but girl, i try” (i try)
i’ll try (i’ll try)
i tried (i tried)
i tried to be the man that you wanted, but i couldn’t provide
[verse 2]
now i’m movin’ at a different pace
don’t blame me for movin’ on because you couldn’t wait
you left to find yourself and found out what we had was great
our city’s way too small to act like we ain’t never date
and now your bangin’ on my line, i ain’t callin’ you back
you used to race all on my mind, now my life’s on track
you ain’t gon’ waste no more of my time, ’cause i’m not that man
you knew from the past that gave you a chance
you used to think that it was all a game
looking back, girl, i think that i’m the one to blame
i’m settin’ boundaries, i’m not the same
don’t call ’cause i blocked you on everything
and if i ever come across your mind
i hope you think about those late+night drives
and tell yourself i didn’t deserve those lies
those words, those fights
i tried, i tried
[chorus]
i keep tryna move on, i gps all my thoughts (i keep tryna move on, girl)
but they lead me to places that gon’ hurt me inside
i’ve been tryna stay strong, but when the memories sp+wn
i gotta chase ’em with whiskey ’cause they run on my mind
can’t turn the radio on because they only play songs (i can’t turn that radio on)
that take me back to those days and all those late+night drives
when you’d lay on my arm, tell me what i’d do wrong
and i would look in your face and say, “but girl, i try” (i try)
i’ll try (i’ll try)
i tried (i tried)
i tried to be the man that you wanted, but i couldn’t provide
