Karaoké I Tried Bone Thugs-N-Harmony & Akon

Bone Thugs Akon, yeah

You know though nothin' come easy

You gotta try real real hard

I tried hard but I guess I gotta try harder

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but I'll always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault 'cos I try to get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin' one day you'll come and rescue me

But until then

I'll be posted up right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then

I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin' dough

First let me explain that

I'm just a black man

And I come from the dark side so I'm having a hard time

Staying on track man my mind be racin'

And I don't even know what I'm chasing yet

Been in and out of relationships

I'm startin' to see that it's me

Where the complications at but I'm layin' back prayin' that

You get that piece of mind of me I thought I was right but

Really I'm wrong but again

I was too blind to see

I was in the fast lane chasin' my dream and then

It seemed when the fame and cash came they just got me

Goin crazy I been so faded

Lately lately lately trying to erase it

But I just can't 'cos the drama just grows greater

And I been in so many collisions

From puttin' shit off till later

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but I'll always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault 'cos I try to get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin' one day you'll come and rescue me

But until then

I'll be posted up right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then

I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin' dough

It's like I'm takin' five steps forward and ten steps back

Tryin' a get ahead of the game but I can't seem to get it on track

And I keep runnin away the ones that say they love me the most

How could I create the distance when it's supposed to be close and uh

I just don't know but I be out here fightin' demons and

It's like the curse that I can't shake this part of Cleveland and

Lord would you help me and stop this pain

I keep inflictin' on my family

Hustlin and gamblin' drinkin' and scramblin'

And losin' sight of what

I supposed to be handlin'

It's hard to manage 'cos every days a challenge and man

And I'm slippin' can't lose my balance and tryin' not to panic

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but I'll always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault 'cos I try to get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin' one day you'll come and rescue me

But until then

I'll be posted up right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then

I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin' dough

I see thangs won't change

I'm stuck in the game

As soon as I get out it keeps pullin' me back man

Got me doin' dirty dirt so used to this hustlin' money

That I don't understand no nine to five work

Work studied on the streets hustlas know what I mean

Tugstas ballin' before us

I'm tryin' a make that major league

So we never leave never till the sun came up gotta get it nope no leavin'

No rush today games they play gotta go hard to get what you put in

If you fall off then it's all on you gotta watch what you sign too

Try so hard but

I won't act a fool

I tried so hard can't seem to get away from misery

Man I tried so hard but I'll always be a victim of these streets

It ain't my fault 'cos I try to get away but trouble follows me

And still I try so hard hopin' one day you'll come and rescue me

But until then

I'll be posted up right here rain sleet hail snow

But until then

I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin' dough
