lyrics

[Verse 1]
Am I the man you need?
Are you contemplating setting me free?
Can you handle this?
Can you stand my flaws?
I know it can't be easy tryna be with me
I thank God that you tried
I know it can't be easy tryna be with me
I thank God that you tried
Cuz no one else
Would understand me well
Cuz no one else
Could understand me well
Still tryna keep it alive
I see in your eyes you're damn right we'll make it through
Still tryna keep it alive
I see in your eyes you're damn right we'll make it through

[Chorus]
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
You try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die

[Verse 2]
This life thought man it comes to often
I can't stop so I'm always bothered
I need to turn off office
I might walk way further
Now I could be the bearer of the good news
Or I could be the mentor to these hood dudes
Tellin' them there's something they could still do
Like fall away from loving someone to soon
You could be the one to instigate the pain or
You could be the one to feel it all the same or
Now we can't be sure, of any single thing
Now we can't be sure, of any single thing

[Verse 3]
My heart feels just how it feels
This west breeze made it hard to breathe
Fallin' free like an appleseed
No more stories to tell, oh well
We can't be always gentle whenever
Sometimes we gotta match with the weather
But whatever the season
Still gotta keep on breathing

[Chorus]
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
You try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
You try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
You try, I try, if love dies then we both die
If you try, I try, if love dies then we both die
