Lyrics
(Try your call again)
Encouragement to retry a phone call
I've been called a bad boyfriend and even worse ex
Acknowledgment of being labeled a bad boyfriend and ex
Told put God first and her next
Advice received to prioritize God and the next girl
If she's the only girl like Snow White or Smurfette
Comparison of a significant other to Snow White or Smurfette
She's not, I am dating nobody, nobody's perfect
Stating the imperfection of dating and oneself
And there's no sure bets, just courage and first steps
Emphasizing the uncertainty in life and the importance of courage
We don't talk, got hang-ups and one-word texts
Communication issues with hang-ups and brief messages
Lessons learned on hurt and discipline
Reflection on lessons from hurt and discipline
In repair, still need a lotta work like Michigan
Admitting the need for improvement similar to Michigan
State improves when my Pistons win or when I see my sis again
Positive impact of the Pistons' victory and seeing family
Missing friends I call when I'm getting bent
Missing friends during vulnerable moments
Out of shape over, wait, fix that
Acknowledgment of being out of shape and determination to fix it
Fit but no six-pack cause I won't do sit ups or give up Big Macs
Choosing fitness without extreme measures
With Shad you always get a mixed bag
Highlighting the diversity of experiences with Shad
Sadness and joy, wins and mishaps
Contrasting emotions and varied life events with Shad
Healed wounds and picked scabs
Mentioning healed wounds and lingering scars
More ups and downs than a Six Flags
Comparing life's fluctuations to an amusement park
Music with a message I left after the click
Leaving a message with a meaningful musical impact
Don't go
Request not to leave
I said, "don't you go"
Repetition of the theme and plea for not leaving, mixed with phone-related struggles
You hate talking on the phone
-You're too far away, too close to home (try your call again)
-I said, "don't you go"
-You hate talking on the phone
-You're too far away, too close to home (try your call again)
-She's so off the hook, but when I'm letting go of the telephone
-She goes off the wall, like a hella old centerfold
-Should've left the cell at home
-We're breaking up, can't hear what she's saying but I get the tone
-Nah mean? Nah, I've never known
-Say you mean well, then how come I'm left alone
-When I need help? This female won't take my calls
-It's like pool and that's her cue to break my balls
-The games we play, replay the same each day
-Phone tag, hide-and-seek with the PDA off
-I'm on course like the PGA
-Towards a deep sea cave where my treasure is kept
-Buried like death in the depths where I keep me safe
-I'm just like, "Aye, we'll keep in touch"
-Not close like Glenn, just close enough
-And the attachment's still there, just never opened up
-I said, "don't you go"
-You hate talking on the phone
-You're too far away, too close to home (try your call again)
-I said, "don't you go"
-You hate talking on the phone
-You're too far away, too close to home (try your call again)
-And the bill for my cell is high c-notes, Wynton Marsalis
-Man, why Telus gotta be so selfish?
-Helpless, ran out of luck
-Ran out of minutes on my Solo before I could finish (don't go)
-Don't end this while I'm roaming on the road dolo
-Woken up with a special ring like Frodo
-I get the picture, don't upload the photo
-I can see you both, pixels in my mind load in slow-mo
-TLO on the mixer switch to phono
-For grown folks BB pinning hopes but the phone's broke
-Disconnected, just a second
-I'm cutting out, TLO cut the records
-(Please try your call again)
-(Please try your call again)
-(We're sorry, your call did not go through)
-(Please try your call again)
Continued plea to try the call again
