I TRIED

This one's out to all the Mothers, and all the Mothers, Mothers, and all other shit cunt Mothers along the way, check it -

INTRO:
It's hard, I can't always find the words to say/
from my heart, I can always feel hurt and pain/
but I can't, keep letting it go this way/
I can feel myself going insane, so i'm going to say/

everything I keep bottled up, please forgive me/
when I cuss certain people, but I need you with me/
so you need to know the truth, and I don't fib/
I couldn't give a shit, about all the things I did/

VERSE 1:
I did it for a reason, nahh I ain't perfect/
but I was made to feel my whole life, like I ain't worth it/
so I cheated, got with girls, that never made me feel worthless/
'cos Nanny and your Mum, they drove me to the nurses/

with a belly full of pills, they'ed rather see me killed/
than support me while i'm sick, ask them if it's real/
ask them if I tried, ask them I cried/
ask them if I didn't ask for help, a million times/

ask them if they let me down, ask what they did/
ask your Nan, how the fuck, she could treat her kids/
like she did and like she tries to, tell me that I try to/
cause trouble, when you know I avoid them, i'd like to/

never see them again, i'm dancing on their graves/
'cos both of them are dead to me, i'm dancing in the rain/
smiling, you see that, that's laughter on my face/
i've never been happier, I feel like i've escaped/

CHORUS:
I tried, I tried/
oh lord, I tried/
I hope you fucking drown in tears, and cry/
you could apologise a million times/
(Repeat)

VERSE 2:
Angel Jayne, you're my world, you're my baby girl/
your my princess, i'm a king, and i'ma give you the whole world/
Tyler your my boy, your my star, i'm annoyed, when they start/
trying to tell you your a bad kid, your a fucking star/

they say your not, they say that your naughty/
they say you're like me, maybe, 'cos no body taught me/
how to be good, I had to raised my self/
now look at me, yeah boy, I amaze my self/

And I know I ain't around, but i'm always there/
Whenever you need me, let me show you that I care/
i'm being real now your old enough to know the facts/
ask every boy around the block about your Mum. Perhaps/

I'm being cruel, i'll show you what cruel is/
a Dad having to have a DNA test, to confirm that his boy his/
shame on a Woman, more so a Mother/
Who pushes a Dad out her kids lives, because he don't love her/

but I love my daughter and my son/
So here's a list of every single thing, I ever done wrong, all in one song/
I drink, I fight, I went prison, I lied/
I cheated, and I cheated and I cheated, but I tried/

to stick I out with your Mum, I swear begged her to stay/
'cos I knew if we split up, she's never let me see you again/
And what she do now? But I guess I just bull shit/
You've seen her call me up, I put the phone down, she talks shit/

CHORUS:
I tried, I tried/
oh lord, I tried/
I hope you fucking drown in tears, and cry/
you could apologise a million times/
(Repeat)

VERSE 3:
I cut them out my life, i'm doing better than ever/
my life's perfect, even better with you, better together/
the amount of times I say, I don't want her in my life/
but she's bitter like my Mother, still wants to be a wife/

and I try to be nice, for your sake, I tried/
but the bottom line is, i don't wanna get back on that bike/
I tried to be civil, I tried to get along/
but she calls me up at midnight, singing the same old song/

and we can play games, he said, she said, he said/
but what's the fucking point, we need to admit, we said/
we said things wrong, done things wrong/
we got kids we both love, but it don't mean we gotta get along/

it's not a reason to stop them, seeing their Dad/
what sort of Mother hurts her own children, you're fucking mad/
you can't stop them from loving me, change their name/
but can't change their face, and her names Angel Jayne/

CHORUS:
I tried, I tried/
oh lord, I tried/
I hope you fucking drown in tears, and cry/
you could apologise a million times/
