Try living, try try living You ain't lived in a woman's world If you never been told how you gotta be What you gotta wear, how you gotta speak And if you can't see that it's gotta change But she goes to the same job everyday She's overworked and

Odetta, don't you know That you saved this young man's soul? And he can watch you getting wise And you can watch him growing old Along came a morning of another Blindsided by your sweet surprise You were always tryna fill the void, my brother A habit so

I been through a lot So don't try to stop me 'Cause I been through a lot I been through a lot, whoa They think that they got me, no But they cannot stop me They cannot stop me No, no they cannot stop me Swear I been through a lot

Well, I'm out of Alabama, down to Louisiana Halfway 'bout to New Orleans Yeah, I'm leaning on my Chevy Rolling through the levees trying to get to where I wanna be That's where I reckon I can finally put myself at ease Check my life there at the border

Well alright Oh I, oh I-I-I I can't be what you want from me And I know she knows, and I know she knows She knows, she knows Damned if I do Damned if I don't And deep down she knows, she knows Trying to get a piece of that apple pie

Those were my demons Forgive me, father I can't relate, I can't relate, no I'm here to right my wrongs I'd like to apologize I'm tryna make amends I'm only human That wasn't who I am I've made a mess again

We don't apologize And that's just the way it is But we can harmonize Even if we sound like shit Don't try to criticize You bitches better plead the fifth We've been idolized Role models for all the kids. (for all the kids)

Is it in you to be honest? Say what it is you’re trying to say But if you lie to me again Honest, honest I'll be the one that walks away Is it in you to be honest? We don’t communicate, can you not say what’s on your mind? And I see it every day you hide

But when I finally found the words to say I wanted to run away Simply run away You can try to run and hide It won't make a difference You can lie to yourself Of the reason Sure it hurts wen it comes to you're attention There's something bout this girl

It is him I love Holy Father Say I shouldn’t be here but I can’t give up his touch Don’t you try and tell me that God doesn’t care for us We need to talk I have a secret
