Try

You Don’t Know How Hard I Try

Try is about the things we pursue when nobody really sees the effort behind them. “You don’t know how hard, hard I try. You don’t know how far I’ll try.” That’s all I wanted to say—and maybe it means something different to everyone who hears it. It could be about chasing someone, chasing a dream, pushing through doubt, or simply discovering how far you’re willing to go when something matters to you. Driven by a melodic dance groove and a hypnotic vocal chant, Try leaves the meaning open. The repetition becomes part of the message: sometimes you don't need to explain how hard you're trying. You just have to keep moving.

How does this feel to you?

Be the first to say how this felt. Pick as many as fit.

Relaxed
Settled you. Shoulders dropped.
Nostalgic
Took you back somewhere.
Energetic
Made you move. You couldn't sit still.
Aggressive
Hard and confrontational. Teeth bared.
Euphoric
That hands-in-the-air moment. Pure joy.
Hopeful
Like something's going to be alright.
Melancholy
Beautiful sadness. The good kind of ache.
Dreamy
Floating, hazy, somewhere else entirely.
Reflective
Made you think. Turned you inward.
Dark
Heavy and shadowy. A little menacing.

When would you play this?

Be the first to say how this felt. A feeling and a moment are different things — this is the moment.

Late Night
After midnight, when the world has gone quiet.
The Commute
Getting somewhere. Headphones on.
The Gym
Training. Moving. Pushing.
Sunday
Slow morning. Nowhere to be.
Sunrise
Early hours. The light coming up.
The Party
People in the room. Volume up.
Working
In the background while you focus.
Winding Down
The end of the day. Slowing.
Alone Time
Just you. Door closed.
Pre Going Out
Getting ready. The night ahead.
