I Said I Try

Watch for the ones who want the war in you
Stick to the path inside you
Don't mind the minor detail
This one's as big as a whale

Hang tight and rock and wreck and hold and hitch
Get with the fight, the fix, the fight, the win
Can't see the final lines here

I said I'd try to cross the ocean
Oh son, that's not happening
You shot the moon
And man it's great, you've got the story

Why should I even itch the scalp that burns from recreation
Why should I plead to hush the bath of heat and education

Stick with the ones who do the work for you
Don't leave my side
I carry more than my own troubles
How taxing

Think of a day that wasn't waste to you
Concern the work involved
And was it really worth it

I said I'd try to cross the ocean
Oh son, that's not happening
You shot the moon
And man it's great, you've got the story

Why should I hop the cracks that break my back from superstition
Why should I push to walk the path of heat and education

Tread and trek the tubers to where I'm resting
Walk the wrong way back until I'm exhausted
Beg the burden away from me
Beg the burden away from me

I said I'd try to cross the ocean
Oh son, that's not happening
You shot the moon
Of God, you've got the glory
