lyrics

try. (music: belew/fetters. words: fetters)

has been wanna be never was never gonna be
that’s the way she looks at me like everyone else in town
i walked in and she walked out. i guess i don’t have the clout
but i’ve learned what i can live without like everyone else in town
and i’m not gonna try to make that woman love me
and i ain’t gonna cry if the world don’t know my name
and i won’t waste my time proving i’m somebody
i’m not gonna lie. i’m not gonna try
i thought she’d stay but i was wrong. she left a note. it wasn’t long
the radio won’t play your song like everyone else in town
and i prayed for help on my knees. how come god won’t answer me?
i’m my own worst enemy like everyone else in town
i’m not gonna try to make that woman love me
and i ain’t gonna die if the world don’t know my name
and i won’t waste my time proving i’m somebody
and i’m not gonna lie. i’m not gonna try
has been wanna be never was never gonna be
that’s the way that she sees me like everyone else in town
