Akon feat Bone Thugz 'N' Harmony I Tried Lyrics

[Intro (Wish Bone)]

You know nothing come easy, you gotta try real real hard, I tried hard...but I guess I
gotta try harder.

[Chorus (Akon)]

I try so hard can't seem to get away from misery
man I try so hard
will always be a victim of these streets
it aint my fault cuz I...
tried to get away but trouble follows me
and still I try so hard
hoping one day you'll come and rescue me
but until then, I'll be posted up right here in sleet hail snow and
until then...
I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin dough

[Verse 1 (Krayzie Bone)]

First let me explain that I'm just a black man
and I come from the darkside, so I'm havin a hard time stayin on track man my mind be
racin, and I don't even know what I'm chasin' yet I been in and out of relationships, I'm
startin to see thats it's me where the complications at, but I'm layin back prayin that,
you can't have piece of mind of me, I thought I was right but really I'm wrong, in the end
I was to blind to see, I was in the fast lane chasin' my dream, and then it seem when the
fame and cash came they just got me going craaazy lately, lately, lately I beed so faded
tryin to erase it but I cant cuz the drama just goes greater and I been in so many
collisions from puttin shit up till later

[Chorus (Akon)]

[Verse 2 (Layzie Bone)]

<CLASS id=NoSteal>[ Lyrics found on http://www.metrolyrics.com ]</CLASS>

It's like I'm taking 5 steps forward and 10 steps back, tryin to get ahead of the game,
but I can't seem to get it on track, and I keep running away from the ones that say they
love me the most how could I create the distance when it's suppose to be close and uh, I
just don't know but I be out here fighting demons and, it's like a curse that I can't shake
this part of Cleveland and lord, would you help me? and stop this pain I keep inflicting on
my family hustlin gamblin, trickin and scammin scrambling and losing sight of what I'm
suppose to be handlin, it's hard to manage cuz everyday's a challenge and man I'm slippin
can't lose my balance I'm tryin not to panic

[Chorus (Akon)]

I try so hard
can't seem to get away from misery
man I try so hard
will always be a victim of these streets
it aint my fault cuz I...
tried to get away but trouble follows me
and still I try so hard
hoping one day you'll come and rescue me
but until then, I'll be posted up right here in sleet hail snow and
until then...
I'll be posted up right here with my heat gettin dough

[Verse 3 (Wish Bone)]

I see thangs won't change I'm stuck in the game as soon as I get out it keeps pullin me
back mayne got me doin' dirty dirt so used to this hustlin' money that I don't understand
how 9 to 5 work studied on the streets, hustlers know what I mean hustlers ballin in force
I'm tryna make that major league so we never leave never, til' the sun came up gotta get it
nope no leavin no rush today games they play gotta go hard to get what u put in if you fall
off then it's all on you gotta watch what you sign to try so hard but I won't play the fool



Nightmare on My Street Lyrics
Artist: dj jazzy jeff & the fresh prince (aka Will Smith)


Now I have a story that I'd like to tell
About this guy you all know he had me scared as hell
He comes to me at night after I crawl into bed
He's burnt up like a weenie and his name is fred
He wears the same hat and sweater every single day
And even if it's hot outside he wears it anyway
He's home when I'm awake but he shows up when I sleep
I can't believe that there's a nightmare on my street

It was a saturday evening if I remember it right
And we had just gotten back off tour last night
So the gang and I thought that it would be groovey
If we summoned up the posse and done rushed the movie
I got angie
Jeff got tina
Freddy Rock got some girl I'd never seen in my life
That was all right because the lady was chill
Then we dipped to the theater set to ill
Buggin'

Go havin' a ball and somethin' bout

Elm Street was the movie we saw

It started out real decent you know, nuthin real fancy

About this homeboy named Fred and this girl named Nancy

But word! when it was over i said

"Yo that was def!"

And everything seemed all right when we left

But when I got home I layed down to sleep

That began the nightmare...on my street!

It was burning in my room like an oven
My bed soaked with sweat
And man I was bugging
I checked the clock and it stopped at 12:30
It had melted it was so darn hot
And I was thirsty
I got somethin cool to quench my thirst

I thought to myself "Yo this heat is the worst!"

But when I got downstairs I noticed somethin' was wrong

I was home all alone but the tv was on!

I thought nuthin' of it as i grabbed the remote
Pressed the power button, and then I almost choked
When I heard this awful voice coming from behind
It said,"you got my favorite letter but now you must die!"
Man, I ain't even wait to see who it was
Broke inside my drawers and screamed,"so long cuz!"
Got halfway up the block
I calmed down and stopped screaming
Then thought, "oh, I get it, I must be dreaming"
I strolled back home with a grin on my grill
I think that since this is a dream I might as well get ill
I walked in the house, the big bad fresh prince
But freddy killed all that noise real quick
He grabbed me by my neck and said
"here's what we'll do
We gotta lotta work here, me and you
The souls of your friends you and I will claim
You've got the body and I've got the brain"
I said,"yo fred
I think you got me all wrong
I ain't partners with nobody with nails that long
Look, I'll be honest man, this team won't work
The girls won't be on you, fred, your face is all burnt"

Fred got mad and his face started steamin'

But I thought "What the hell, im only dreamin!"

I said "Please leave Fred so I can get some sleep

But gimme a call later and we'll hang out next week!"
I patted him on the shoulder, said "thanks for stopping by"
Then I opened up the door and said "take care guy!"
He got mad, drew back his arm, and slashed my shirt
I laughed at first, then thought, "hold up, that hurt"
It wasn't a dream, man, this guy was for real
I said, "freddy, uh, pal, there's been an awful mistake here"
No further words and then I darted upstairs
Crashed through my door then jumped on my bed
Pulled the covers up over my head
And said, "oh lord please do something with fred"

he jumped on my bed, went through the covers with his claws
Tried to get me, but my alarm went off
And then silence
It was a whole new day
I thought, "huh, I wasn't scared of him anyway"
Until I noticed those rips in my sheets
And that was proof that there had been a nightmare on my street

Fp: oh man, I gotta call jeff, I gotta call jeff
