I was only making the move
Trying very hard to get back to you
I was only chilling in style
Make a move to kill in an awful while

I was only trying to get by
I was only trying to get high

I was only acting the part
If the rest don't take a part of it
I was only breaking my back a while

I was only trying to get by
I was only trying to get high
Before the sunrise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, rise, 
rise

I was only trying to get high
I was only trying to get by
I was only trying to get by
It said
I was only trying to get high
Before the sunrise at the dawn
