《Die Trying》歌词

[00:00:00] Die Trying (至死方休) - Cee-Lo

[00:00:21] See there's no way and there's no how

[00:00:24] I'd ever stop now

[00:00:26] I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:00:32] And sometimes I get weak

[00:00:33] From walking the road I'm on

[00:00:35] But I'mma keep on

[00:00:36] I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:00:43] Before we came being in southern

[00:00:44] Wasn't something to claim

[00:00:46] The fact wasn't something too fly

[00:00:47] It was something to blame

[00:00:48] Smilin' and juckin' and jivin'

[00:00:50] I was so ashamed

[00:00:51] They gave the dirty apparently appropriate name

[00:00:54] I wrote about a revolution

[00:00:55] And sung from the soul

[00:00:57] Spoke with my spirit

[00:00:57] And mind my ambition was blind

[00:00:59] Answering the call of God like a child obeying

[00:01:02] Preaching the very same power

[00:01:03] They killed Martin for saying

[00:01:05] But you can't break the mold

[00:01:06] And not holding your breath

[00:01:07] Thought if I died for ya

[00:01:08] That would be an honorable death

[00:01:10] So sincere my eyes begin to swell up in tear

[00:01:13] And it's clear my music may not do well up in here

[00:01:15] Oh my God

[00:01:16] Being a nigger must be a good payin' job

[00:01:18] With all the fringe benefits ignorance is bliss

[00:01:21] There is a time and the place for everybody's taste

[00:01:23] But I know too much

[00:01:25] And I owe too much

[00:01:26] See there's no way and there's no how

[00:01:29] I'd ever stop now I'mma die tryin'

[00:01:33] I'mma die tryin'

[00:01:36] And sometimes I get weak from walking the road I'm on

[00:01:40] But I'mma keep on

[00:01:41] I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:01:48] So here it is an invitation to an open book

[00:01:51] A painful past my heart is still broken look

[00:01:53] I know you don't hate me

[00:01:54] It's not assured that anyone appreciate me

[00:01:56] See I've been having a hard time selling my album's lately

[00:01:59] In recent news the source couldn't

[00:02:00] Find any microphones to rate me

[00:02:02] Using words I could scream an alternative to equate me

[00:02:04] Which is true I'm in a box

[00:02:05] With a view would you still wanna date me

[00:02:07] I could be a pretty good thug

[00:02:08] But it wouldn't compare to a great me

[00:02:10] The final cross to bear is mine it's not a cross to share

[00:02:12] But isn't it ironic I still woulda bought a cross to wear

[00:02:15] That obviously cost to wear but considerably less

[00:02:18] Than the price that it costs to care

[00:02:20] Now I have another loss to spare

[00:02:22] I doubt 'em say that I can't win

[00:02:23] Even though I know talking intelligent just ain't in

[00:02:26] You most likely to go broke when you just can't bend

[00:02:29] So me and J J both gon' have to pay bills

[00:02:31] See there's no way and there's no how

[00:02:34] I'd ever stop now I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:02:41] And sometimes I get weak from walking the road I'm on

[00:02:45] But I'mma keep on I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:02:51] Listen people still standin' in line

[00:02:54] At the world party for some soul food

[00:02:56] To get put back in that old mood they say

[00:02:58] We like the new 'lo

[00:03:00] And we respect everything that you trying to do 'lo

[00:03:01] Do what you do but just do more that you know

[00:03:04] It's a catch 22 and I couldn't cry

[00:03:06] Now I'm under oath with them both and I couldn't lie

[00:03:09] Cussed 'em said that I'm too d**e and I couldn't fly

[00:03:12] But you getting rich talkin' sh*t so why shouldn't I

[00:03:15] I'm just playing but I guess

[00:03:16] That couldn't go without saying

[00:03:17] I'm just gon' ride this revolution

[00:03:19] Until they stop me where I'm stayin'

[00:03:20] But I ain't gotta have to lie to ya to make it sound fly to ya

[00:03:23] I keep my feet on the ground and bring the sky to ya

[00:03:25] See there's no way and there's no how

[00:03:28] I'd ever stop now I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'

[00:03:35] And sometimes I get weak from walking the road I'm on

[00:03:39] But I'mma keep on I'mma die tryin' I'mma die tryin'
