Devil On My Shoulder

Yeah...

I'm tryna be sober...

Kxng Ryot...

Chorus

I'm tryna be sober, but the pain too loud

Tryna be sober, but I'm lost in the crowd

Every night I say "this the last time"

Then I wake up and I do it again, I lie

Tryna be sober, tryna be clean

Tryna be the man I was in my dreams

But the devil on my shoulder, he keep calling me

Tryna be sober, set me free

Verse 1

I told Mama I'd quit, I told God I'd stop

But when the night come, I'm back at the spot

Pretoria streets, they know my name

Every plug, every pain, it's all the same

I don't wanna die, I wanna live

But I got so much pain I gotta give

To the bottle, to the smoke, to the pill

Anything to make my mind be still

Chorus

I'm tryna be sober, but the pain too loud

Tryna be sober, but I'm lost in the crowd

Every night I say "this the last time"

Then I wake up and I do it again, I lie

Tryna be sober, tryna be clean

Tryna be the man I was in my dreams

But the devil on my shoulder, he keep calling me

Tryna be sober, set me free

Verse 2

I see my future, it's fading away

I see my past, it won't let me stay

If I could go back, I'd change it all

But I can't, so I keep taking the fall

Lord, hear my prayer, I'm on my knees

Take this fire, take this disease

I'm tryna be sober, I'm tryna be free

Kxng Ryot, just let me be

Chorus

I'm tryna be sober, but the pain too loud

Tryna be sober, but I'm lost in the crowd

Every night I say "this the last time"

Then I wake up and I do it again, I lie

Tryna be sober, tryna be clean

Tryna be the man I was in my dreams

But the devil on my shoulder, he keep calling me

Tryna be sober, set me free

Outro

Tryna be sober...

Help me be sober...

Kxng Ryot...
