Try

Why try why not try don't just give up don't die 
don't let nobody tell you not to try we all have moments when
we can't see why we should try we don't want to get out of bed

we can't see why life is oh so hard still we all must try
some people let us down then we fall down it hurts
sometime it takes it toll some vanish from this earth

still we must try one day when fate change we
won't see the rain our life won't be the same 
we'll smile so happy that day came.
