Trying To Do It Right
View ArtistLyrics
[Hook] Mother was a saint Father was a sinner Trying to do it right Um [Verse 1] My mother was a saint Father was a sinner Just trying to do it right in this world of go figure Trying to make tonight a little something of a winner Adrenaline and stage fright One hell of a mixture Look em dead in the eye Wonder if they ever notice These days mama's boy Ain't nearly so precocious Stage lights help me take it out Blink it out Make em all look like they done seen a ghost Boo Who that though Really it's an actor Balance on the precipice Trying to lean back, oh You ain't cool man you look fucking foolish Feels like them mortifying times you had in school shit Hey miss, can I steal some perspective Cos from up here its all looking kinda hectic Wanna know how it looks from outside the snow globe So I can go home Light this motherfucker up and wreck shit [Hook] Mother was a saint Father was a sinner Trying to do it right Um [Verse 2] My mother was a saint Dad was a flawed man Who taught me to be a winner And so my inner circle full of those I shared dinner with The same ones who I know Got my back all the way through the winter Waddup But some of even the closest With whom I share sofas Still don't know me from a barber so Keep em at arms length The only way to cope When the going gets tough And the bluff starts to show I get so caught up in the undertow Looking for the subtext with a microscope Particularly when the issues so microscopic And I'd like to drop it But somehow I can't let go So where'd that leave us? Sitting home watching reruns? No, cos I'mma take fate just however she comes Make some of y'all put up your hands No preacher And turn these sleepless nights into dreams You believe that?
