Tryna Be Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tryna be, all that I can be for you
When you're not with me, it's hard because it's lonely
Honesty, I told 'em I'm in love with you
But they're okay with bein' number two
Driftin' us apart
I ain't did nothin' wrong yet
I'm tempted when you're gone
'Cause I don't do well alone (Don't do well alone)
They want me more than ever now
And I'm scared that I want 'em, too
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm all in but I'm just
A man with flaws when the song end
My options come callin'
Should stop it, I'm tryin'
[Chorus]
All that I can be for you
When you're not with me, it's hard because it's lonely
Honesty, I told them I'm in love with you
But they're okay with bein' number two
[Post-Chorus]
Mm, mm-mm
(Yeah-yeah, what am I supposed to do)
Mm, mm-mm (Oh, oh-oh)
(When I am not close to you?)
Mm, mm-mm
(They all wanna be number two, number two)
Mm, mm-mm
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna do you wrong but this not helpin'
Lovin' through a phone with poor connection
If I share my love, would I regret it?
If you never know, it's still a question
Don't go too far for too long, I'm too on
Don't go too far for too long, I'll move on
Now they know my name
I see you callin'
Don't see you often, it's hard but I'm tryna be
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm all in (Yeah), but I'm just
A man (A man) with flaws when the song end
My options come callin' (Callin')
Should stop it, I'm tryin'
[Chorus]
All that I can be for you
When you're not with me, it's hard because it's lonely
Honesty, I told them I'm in love with you
But they're okay with bein' number two
[Post-Chorus]
Mm, mm-mm
(Yeah-yeah, what am I supposed to do)
Mm, mm-mm (Oh, oh-oh)
(When I am not close to you?)
Mm, mm-mm
(They all wanna be number two, number two)
Mm, mm-mm
[Outro]
They all wanna be number two, number two
What am I supposed to do
When I am not close to you?

What did GIVĒON say about "Tryna Be"?
“Tryna Be” is just as simple as, ‘Listen, I’m trying to be everything that I should be and even that I want to be, but…’ It really speaks on distance as well and trying to be the best you can be when you know no one is looking. It also speaks to the mindset of telling someone and just being honest a...
