| Tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you
|
| And tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you
|
| When I got the news I had the blues
|
| Sad, confused
|
| Wishin' I had some clues
|
| So mad that we had to lose
|
| Your life, I wish He would’ve took mine if he had to choose
|
| Now I pay homage, nothin' is promised, we don’t craft the rules
|
| Your life was taken, man and it hurts in the worst way
|
| And what’s even deeper, I got this beat on your birthday
|
| So I cherish every moment above where the earth lay
|
| Gracious for the good times given, it’s God’s work
|
| Hey, travelin' a Strange Journey with dreams of a dang gurney
|
| Life presentin' pain, still I never let the thang burn me
|
| Then my home girl passed, it’s like a parallel dimension
|
| Brought some things to my attention 'bout myself I had fail to mention
|
| Preachin' to the heavens tryna get that ill extension
|
| But I know it’s just a matter of time
|
| It made me want to defy science and create a time machine invention
|
| I’ll say I love you, hope you hearin' this rhyme
|
| So tell me why
|
| «Tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you»
|
| No matter how far you go
|
| Know that you’re still with me
|
| No matter how far you go
|
| Know that you’re still with me
|
| «And tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you»
|
| No matter how far you go
|
| Know that you’re still with me
|
| No matter how far you go
|
| Know that you’re still with me
|
| Rivers I do wander
|
| No Rwanda, no Iran
|
| Coulda been dealt the hand of death
|
| But it just wasn’t in thy plan
|
| Always had some shelter and some rations in my hand
|
| Didn’t rock the tightest fashion in my Chucks or in my Vans
|
| I was walkin' over junkies, everywhere but home
|
| But your teachings were amongst me, never journey streets alone
|
| Though I act just like some monkey, everyday I’m in this tree
|
| You keep the branches strong, cause everyday y’all on y’all knees
|
| Prayin' that the god that’s in me, is for wishin'
|
| Cause it took the early death of your daughter for mine to issue
|
| She opened up my eyes to the wise, gave me true vision
|
| And though she with our Heavenly Father, I pray she listens
|
| Cause family has been the canopy that blocks the rain
|
| Cause candidly I’d lose my sanity and all the pain
|
| Of the world, and though we plan to be all that we can
|
| We all ain’t got the tree of kin that’s rooted in my veins
|
| So.
|
| «Tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you»
|
| This is dedicated to all my people who didn’t make it to today. |
| (Rest in peace.)
|
| So many questions, not enough answers, but we’ll get through it. |
| (Still with us.
|
| «And tell me why
|
| I’m so lost without you» |
