I’m Trying, I Promise

[Intro: ⚸nge⚸]
I woke up today I think that is great
Aren’t you proud of me?
Aren’t you proud of me?
Aren’t you proud of me?
Aren’t you- Aren’t you- Aren’t you-
Aren’t— Aren’t— Aren’t—

[Verse 1: ⚸nge⚸]
I woke up today I think that is great
Aren’t you proud of me?
I see the look you have upon your face
Always doubting me
I wonder how much time I’m gonna waste
Before I’m drowning, please
Just tell me that I’m doing it okay
Why you frowning me?

[Hook: ⚸nge⚸]
The faces of the people that have given me a life
Stare at me like I have wasted all my time
I’m only 16
Why have I been pacing day and night?
Please just tell me that I’m worth it
That I’m doing it alright
Can’t you help me?

[Verse 2: ⚸nge⚸]
When y’all were gone I had a group to pick me up
Now that they gone, I feel like I am not enough
I’m steady coping with the thought of growing up
And it keeps me throwing up
I wanna tear out my guts, yuh
