“i tried” is the 8th song off Tyron and the first song of side B of TYRON. Unlike the first half of Tyron, this song along with the rest of the album from this point onwards are very slow and more bleak.

​i tried Lyrics

[Intro: slowthai & Trey Gruber]
(Listen, hahahahaha)
I tried to die
(The pain won't hide)
I tried to take my life
(And you caught me with a smile)
I tried
(At the corner of my eye)
(You're surprised)

[Verse: slowthai]
Ayy, long road, took a tumble down this black hole
Stuck in Sunday League but I'm on levels with Ronaldo
A legend in the making, as a kid, I dreamed I'm Al Capone
We filled cracks of broken homes with broken dreams and broken bones
If walls could scream, ears would bleed, you've gotta keep 'em clean
Could say it's dread but I guess it's just what made me me
Hug the world with open arms and they treat me like a pest
All the scars that I possess, you're gonna do me like this?
The charm just napalm, ticking time bomb, got Tourette's (Boom)
Surrounded by pythons, stick a sword right through their neck (Yeah)
You're fucking with templars crusading through the ends
Forbidden fruit tastes the best with no trespass on the fence (Fence)
Crawl before you walk but I've been running from this tool
Fuckery decisions, yeah, the shit that made me this cool
Life got me in a headlock, back and forth like a hockey puck
Always wanted muscles, lack of strength made me headstrong
Watch 'em crumble 'cause they sour like rhubarb
Know my cake and custard inside-out like a tube sock
I wish I was Manuka, in my mind, I can't do wrong
Still waiting for the boy B, I think it's time to move on
Brothers and sisters, pour a tea and try to oolong
Running from my struggles back and forth like the Chuckles
As morbid as it seems, I'll never wake up from this sleep
If Hell's meant for sinning, Heaven's never been for me

[Outro: slowthai & Trey Gruber]
I want to go (Brrat, brrat)
Where I should never go
The cut
I've got a sickness
And I'm dealin' with it
It feels like I'm sinking
All of the time

What did ​slowthai say about "​i tried"?

‘Long road/Tumble down this black hole/Stuck in Sunday league/But I’m on levels with Ronaldo.’ It’s saying it’s been a struggle to get here. And even still, I feel like I’m travelling into a void. You feel like you’re sinking into yourself—be it through taking too many drugs or drinking too much and...
