I Try(Basehead, 1992)Turn on the TV, and I read the newsI know all the things the world is going through:Men forced to die, a nuclear skyAnd the same greet each day with some hope and a smileYou know that I try–and you said you’d try–To not let the world go and get me downYou know that I try–and yeah I tryDon’t have to read the paperTo know that there’s homeless people living in the streetsThe Congressmen shouldn’t need votesOr have to be coaxedTo see folks need a place to sleepBut everybody that I know keeps talking ‘bout a brighter dayIt’s hard to see when it will comeAnd everybody that I know keeps talking ‘bout a better wayNobody will live by oneBut still I do tryYou know that l tryTo not the world go and get me downYou know that I try, and you said you’d tryLetras de cancionesTo not let this world turn this smile to a frown…You know I try, and you said you’d tryTo not let this world go and get me downYou know I try, and you said you’d try“Love will save the day!”That’s what too many songs say–“Must have faith in humanity of man.”The Jews and their fearsThe Trail Of TearsThe Man, he looks down at me for hundreds of yearsBut you know that I try to have faith in nothing but words…How will it be in South Africa and this occurs?But you know that I try…To not let the world go and get me down…To not let the world turn this smile to a frownTo still keep feet on solid ground…etc. From Letras Mania
