I'Ve Tried

I've tried to be a smart boy,
but I've failed.

I've tried to be a hero,
but I am a loser.

I've tried to stop drinking,
but I can't.

I've tried to forget the history,
but it can't move back.

I've tried to be the best,
but it was not enough.

I've tried a lot,
but nothing I've won.

I've tried with all my power
nut at least I've tried.
