Lyrics Try Again - Oddisee

All this time you spent
All that love you gave
Please don't walk away
Try again
Goes to those who wait
Don't break before your break
It's not too late
To try again

Couple wins couple L's
Took a hit but I prevailed
Now I got the gist on how to flip it when I fail
Different when you listen to yourself
Not forgetting but forgiving
How you're living is the wisdom in itself

Getting help
My intention and my callous never been in balance
It's a challenge when your talent comes equipped with damage
Getting callus to what matters, and you'll miss a pattern
How to manage a condition is the trick to catch it
How to handle what you're given is a different matter

Skip the magic, it don't happen overnight
You don't have to overwrite
When it's sounding how you didn't plan it
Understanding I ain't got it when I gave it all I had
Nothing missing in the math but division on the path
I'm revisiting the past with a pen pad, I'll be back

I hope you try again
All this time you spent
All that love you gave
Please don't walk away
Try again
Goes to those who wait
Don't break before your break
It's not too late
To try again

Underdog since when I used to run a blog
I ain't soft, I could bend a hoop and run in clogs
Under fog where I learned to view the sun as small
No sweat when you're getting use to jumping walls
Back when I used to call instead of getting called
I remember feeling lost bout to get a job
Selling tree in the mall trying to chip a log
Had to ask if it cost ever getting caught

Changed course, had to bang doors
Now them same doors got a man that waits for us
Handshake still cause my manors ain't lost
I don't floss when I kill 'cause I plan to stay raw
Had to take deals that ain't have a rate sealed
Just to have a plate filled now I'd rather take off
Remember when it feels like you gotta stay still
If the lines ain't crossed

I hope you try again
All this time you spent
All that love you gave
Please don't walk away
Try again
Goes to those who wait
Don't break before your break
It's not too late

To try again
All this time you spent
All that love you gave
Please don't walk away
Try again
Goes to those who wait
Don't break before your break
It's not too late
To try again
