Or so i try…

First part
today seems to be just one of those days/
where everything doesn’t seem to always go your way/
and you sit back and wish that it was yesterday/
but yesterday can’t come cause it just ain’t the same/
so that’s the type of game we all are forced to play/
leaving you sitting there with nothing to say/
but that’s all right, that’s cool, that’s okay/
i’ll just have to adjust to make things go my way/
or so i try…
chorus
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, will i ever get back up again/
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, is life always this tough
second part
well that’s just great, now i can go outside/
but i still have to try and swallow all of my pride/
which keeps on eating up my fragile inside/
like a monster whose mouth is about six feet wide/
so that should tell you how to live your life/
you shouldn’t just sit back and enjoy the ride/
what you should do is take over and drive/
and prove to the public that you have nothing to hide/
or so i try…
chorus
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, will i ever get back up again/
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, is life always this tough
third part
hear me out now. i want you to listen./
go get directions when you need assistance/
humans always die with unfinished business/
don’t pretend that you never knew this existed/
well that’s cool, as long as you can admit to it/
and you don’t become another helpless innocent/
this adds more wrong to the incident/
like a sinner that’s looking to repent/
or so i try…
chorus
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, will i ever get back up again/
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, is life always this tough
chorus
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, will i ever get back up again/
i try so hard, even when i’m down on my luck/
i sit back and wonder, is life always this tough
