Derek Pope - Even If I Tried

To Rate
So what if i don't see the sunrise?
The sky never been so clear
I don't know how much time has been passing
'cus you feel like youre really here

And i know you don't think i'm getting out alive
But i swear i won't be the one to not survive
I used to think there wasn't much to see outside
'til i couldn't feel the high even if i tried

For a moment, felt like i was ownin, now i'm zoned in
Everything i write becomes an omen
Bleeding every drop out in the open
No one sharks in the ocean
?
Leavin' there with no feels
Big ol' four wheels, driving through the four steel
Like an anvil droppping on an ant hill, we're stuck in here

Can i finally leave it all behind me?
Oh well, they won't find me
I've been on the run, i've been on the wall
The money'll come, the money'll fall
Stickin' wit' me, we been through it all
You're what i need to really evolve, no

So what if i don't see the sunrise?
The sky never been so clear
I don't know how much time has been passing
'cus you feel like youre really here

And i know you don't think i'm getting out alive
But i swear i won't be the one to not survive
I used to think there wasn't much to see outside
'til i couldn't feel the high even if i tried

Even if i tried
Even if i tried
Even if i tried
Even if i tried

Derek Pope is a musician who has taken the road less traveled in pursuit of his unique sound. Born and raised in Oakland, California, Pope discovered his passion for music at a young age. In high school, he delved into beat production, spending countless hours perfecting his craft and laying the foundation for what would become his signature sound.

It wasn't until 2015 that Pope decided to experiment with singing, a decision that would ultimately lead him to redefine his musical style. After creating a few demos, Pope realized that he had stumbled upon something special. His lyrics, particularly the line "Looking at the ceiling, thinking I could make a million," resonated with listeners and set the stage for what was to come.

In 2015, Pope released his debut EP, Sunken City Redux, which featured the hit single "Raincoats." The track showcased Pope's ability to seamlessly blend elements of indie rock, pop, and trap, creating a sound that was uniquely his own. With his self-produced beats and introspective lyrics, Pope has managed to carve out a niche for himself in the music industry, pushing the boundaries of what is considered mainstream.

Derek Pope's music is a reflection of his journey as an artist, constantly evolving and challenging the status quo. With each new release, he continues to push the envelope and defy expectations, solidifying his place as a rising star in the music world.
