Tryin by EAGLEBABEL Lyrics
[Intro]
Angela Yee: Do you believe in monogamy?
Luke James: …..um...
DJ Envy: *laughs*
Luke: Do I believe in monogamy? Yes! You know what, when you find somebody that you love and that you truly care for and… and that person you can't live without, and y'all have a thing going on, yes
Angela: --now, you might never find that, but *laughs*
Charlamagne Tha God: I believe in polygamy, so I feel like, you know, for me to really really champion this polygamy cause, I gotta start with one
Luke: I think you gotta have an understanding. I think it's all about an understanding. Now, if you locked down to that issue, then that's cool. Y'all in love and y'all love each other and it feels good every time, like the first time, then it's all good. But, sometimes you gotta mix it up. I think that's what being friends and having a relationship is all about
Charlamagne: Word
Angela: Hm...
Envy: Ok… well, we definitely wish you the best--
Angela: --I don't really know if that was a direct answer, but I'll rock with it
Charlamagne: I'm really glad I met Luke James
Luke: I believe! I believe, I believe...
Angela: Ok
Luke: …I believe in everything. I believe in just being loveful. You know, just be--
Charlamagne: --lustful?
Luke: Yeah, loveful
Angela: "Loveful."
Charlamagne: Oh, I thought he said "lustful." I said, "me too, I believe in being lustful, too."
Luke: It's a term I got from Marvin Gaye, man. Just… you know… just be into whoever you into right then in the moment. You know?
[Verse 1]
Minnesota girl said "I'm Midwest like you"
Said "I'm Midwest, it ain't nothin there. It's nothin
I don't love you boy, it's nothin."
I said "I'm Chi-Town, I'm somethin."
"I don't love you boy. Just give me now
We ain't cuffin up, just fuckin."
It's the same sound when you turn it round
It's the same word when you turn it round
Then I turned her round, now her draws down
Minnesota girl, with the horses
Saddle up when I'm face-up
When her face down, she was muhfuckin buckin
Singin like Anita Baker, nigga, sweet love
Baker, nigga, mouth full of muhfuckin muffin
Sweet lust, nigga
Love lust, tell me how they not the same word?
She ain't never even heard of Anita Baker
Probably what a nigga get fuckin with a white girl
But she black just the only one up in the white world that she come from
Probably what a nigga get when you fuckin with somebody that you can't relate to
Now I'm fuckin on somebody that I can't relate to
But when my generation ever gave a muhfuck about that?
[Pre-Hook]
See my first girl didn't love me back
Vandross, I was hummin that
And her knees down, she was lookin back, sayin
"Serenade me, serenade me, baby, hurry
Cause all our time here is runnin out, baby, hurry
Love, lust, baby show me now
Love, lust, baby show me now
Love, lust, baby show me now
It's the same word when you turn it round
You ain't know me then, you can know me now
Baby, only now
Love, lust, baby show me now"
[Hook]
You ain't think I gave a fuck about you
I knew too much, tell me: how could I never give a fuck about you?
You gotta be bullshittin if you ever thought a nigga ever stopped thinkin bout you
I ain't tryna get back with you, I just wanna let you know I give a fuck about you
And I ain't never stop
So you gotta be bullshittin if you ever say it ain't true
[Post-Hook]
And all of them words, but I don't want none of them back
Though for all of them words, I never heard none of them back
And if I ever said that I loved you I would be lyin
So yeah that makes two
But why does it feel like I got the blame for tryin?
[Verse 2]
And maybe when it comes down to it I was listenin to too many classics
Thinkin the first person I fucked would have the same songs runnin they mind
In the middle of the smashing
I was virgin to the act
I was so high, John Legend, cloud nine
Like I'm on a rug, hella Persian, with a mixed girl
Did it often, Weeknd
Hit an old school: fucked up, caught feelings
I ain't talkin bout the healing like I'm Marvin
Whole world upside down, on the ceiling, Rose Royce, nigga
Not seeing clearly, Stevie
All I do is think about
I was thinkin back
Baby, you don't know none of the people I'm talkin bout
And every lyric they was cryin out is everything I tried out with you
Yes I mean love, yes I mean lust
Yes I mean kissin it, how to touch in it
How to rub in it, how to last in it
If I had you up in the shakes and you ever asked who a nigga had in the past
I'd probably laugh like "you know
I ain't really tryna do nothin bold
But I'mma just say the fantasies we grew up on
Like new and old"
She said "I never really get your jokes
And so you probably gonna have show me about that"
