[Verse 1]
Woke up to a hunger
Close my eyes I’ve gone under
Momma said there’d be pain like this
Never knew that it’d come so quick
Say the ones you love the most
Seem to always cut you the closest
See your triumphs wish you shame
Thought you’re supposed to be my brother man
I know I’m a sinner too
No use pointing fingers, no one judging you
Say what you want about me

[Hook]
Say I’m tryin’
Tryin’ to be a better man
When I can
Say I’m tryin’
Tryin’ to do the best I can
But I always come up short

[Verse 2]
Talk is cheap, hatred creeps
But you know I got a soul to keep
So don’t you walk on me
I’m (?) don’t know (?)
It’s in my blood
Baby there ain’t nothing to it
Come talking that shit around me
[Hook]
Say I’m tryin’
Tryin’ to be a better man
When I can
Say I’m tryin’
Tryin’ to do the best I can
But I always come up short

[Verse 3]
It ain’t what you know but what you got
These days I ain’t got a lot
(?)
Said I (?)
Nothing special about me man
Come talking that shit about me
