Can You Tell Me Something by Ky Rodgers Lyrics

Can you tell me something
Would you be right by my side
If my life turned out a failure
At least you fucking know that I tried

Maybe I’m selfish
Maybe I’m helpless
Maybe you’re the only one that could help this
I’m trying to swim through this water
But it keeps on getting deeper
And I ain’t no Michael Phelps, man
I hope you don’t mind me lighting this
Got court in a week
Got my mind on some other shit
I had to focus on reality
Gave up on my dreams
Cause they didn’t pay a salary
I guess I’m one of God’s demonstrations
How you ever gonna turn on the one that saved you
God, I pray that you forgive me
For not being faithful
I always was a fool like the first of April
Always addicted to this music
I found my substance
And I started to abuse it
I gave up everything
Just so I could do this shit
I thought music would be the one
To get me through this shit
And I’m stuck here like
Ah, man ...
Would you be right by my side

If my life turned out a failure
At least you fucking know I tried
Can you tell me something
Would you be right by my side
If my life turned out a failure
At least you fucking know that I tried
