Testo Have You Ever Tried It - Ashford & Simpson

Have You Ever Tried It

Have you ever tried it for yourself?
Still getting it secondhand from someone else
Have you really put your mind to it?
Use your heart and soul to get through it
Or when someone tells you there's hope, do you leave it?
Do you leave it alone? Yeah

Have you ever tried it for yourself?
Still taking the words of someone else, ooh, ooh
Will you ever let go of your pride
And listen to the voice inside?
Or are you in it just for play?
And when it's serious, do you look the other way? Yeah

Have you ever tried it? (Ooh)

Have you ever tried it for yourself?

Have you really put your mind to it?
And use your heart and soul to get through it
Or when someone tells you there's hope
Do you leave it? (Do you leave it?)
Do you leave it alone? (Do you leave it alone?)
