  • Woh-oh-oh
    Woo-ooh-ooh-ooh
    Ever wonder 'bout what he's doin'
    How it all turned to lies
    Sometimes I think that it's better
    To never ask why
    Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
    Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
    But just because it burns doesn't mean you're gonna die
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    Hey-he-hey
    Funny how the heart can be deceiving
    More than just a couple times
    Why do we fall in love so easy
    Even when it's not right?
    No-oh-oh, no oh
    Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
    Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
    But just because it burns doesn't mean you're gonna die
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Ever worry that it might be ruined
    And does it make you wanna cry?
    When you're out there doing what you're doing
    Are you just getting by?
    Tell me, are you just getting by, by, by?
    Where there is desire there is gonna be a flame
    Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
    But just because it burns doesn't mean you're gonna die
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try
    You've gotta get up and try, try, try
    Gotta get up and try, try, try Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind

  • Heavy D from Middle Class UsaGreat song. Lame video.

    “Funny how the heart can be deceiving...”

    Got that right, ese.
    Mira, reminds me of an old lady I used to run with. Ride or die, ese.
    We did everything together, work out, travel, try to inseminate, do drugs, alcohol, weed, etc.

    She was different. She talked to me different. She touched me different. She is a beautiful lady. Special person. But little did I know, she had dark demons. Was either abused as a kid or molested as a kid or both. She touched on it briefly and her borderline personality.

    No puedo ayudarle.
    I couldn't help her. You can’t help them. You can’t fix them. You can only try. Sometimes it becomes a lost cause. Because things are already done.

    Now as I navigate this middle-class area and downtown, as well as the escorts, strippers, and looking for the replacement of emotions I used to feel with her, I realize one thing. She was genuine. And each person is different.
    And there’s no going back. You can’t go back. Too much has already been said. Too much has occurred. Things are never the same as when you first meet them.

    Roses go bad. Roses die.
    I still love her too.
    I think about her every day.

    One day at a time.

    Got to get up and try, que no?
