How "Try" came?

Try came from the history of the Caillats. The mother and the grandmother, that are hippies, hate to put makeup on and do their hair by no means. After growing up with this education being trapped by the fashion dictatorship for the sake of fame hasn't been any easy. And it was right after the conversation about the subject with her friend and composer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, that the song with participation of Jason Reevers (Elle Magazine) was released. The concept of try isn't about being against makeup, as many illiterates spoke, not allowing the imposed artifices to cover up what a person truly is. To better illustrate, Colbie's favorite transformation in the video chip is the on of the bold woman. "When I saw her for the first time, she was completely bold, with clean face, a huge smile... she was very happy and confident. She was so pretty to me. And then, it began to appear more hair and makeup. In the next scene, she had a full-face makeup on and a wig. I thought to myself: 'Who is this woman?! She wasn't the same person. She was still beautiful, but it wasn't the same beauty that I saw when she was set free and showed so she truly was." - From Calbie Caillat to Elle.

In the song "Try" the singer passes on a message of how society influences the way women behave. At all times a standard is imposed to them: wear makeup, dress good, be sexy, shop at the mall, make people like you. With all these worries, women ignore their own manners, and adapt to our society to be accepted. In the lyrics, the singer ask "when you are alone without anyone, do you like yourself?" and this makes her give thought to self-love. Women need to love theirselves the way there are. Their hair (or the lack of it), their eyes, features, their bodies, need to be the way they wish. It is not because people like long hair, light eyes, and slim bodies that women need to follow these standards. As a matter of fact, each person needs to be the way they are, they need to dress the way they want, and the most important, love theirselves the way they are.

Put your makeup on
Get your nails done, curl your hair
Run the extra mile
Keep it slim, so they like you
Do they like you?

Get your sexy on
Don't be shy, girl, take it off
This is what you want
To belong, so they like you
Do you like you?

You don't have to try so hard
You don't have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don't have to change a single thing

You don't have to try, try, try, try
You don't have to try, try, try, try
You don't have to try, try, try, try
You don't have to try
You don't have to try

Get your shopping on
At the mall, max your credit cards
You don't have to choose
Buy it all, so they like you
Do they like you?

Wait a second
Why should you care what they think of you?
When you're all alone
By yourself, do you like you?
Do you like you?

You don't have to try so hard
You don't have to give it all away
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don't have to change a single thing

You don't have to try so hard
You don't have to bend until you break
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up
You don't have to change a single thing

Refrain (3x

Take your makeup off
Let your hair down, take a breath
Look into the mirror at yourself
Don't you like you?
'Cause I like you
