| Yeah
|
| And the question is why
|
| Prozak, Saginaw what up
|
| Tech N9ne, Kansas City what up
|
| Twista, Chi-Town what up
|
| And we do it like this
|
| How can somebody explain to me
|
| Why we been followed by evil for so many centuries
|
| Locked in prison the world is a penitentiary
|
| Such a catastrophe and it follows our destiny
|
| But crackhead mothers and fathers are beating their children
|
| Suicide bombers are crashing our planes into buildings
|
| While HIV is spreadin' and killin' off millions
|
| And down in New Orleans there’s several abandoned civilians
|
| They’re spillin' the blood of other people for barrels of oil
|
| The bodies are burning and scattered all over the soil
|
| Feeling the tension as tempers and temperatures boil
|
| Strikin' the soul is a serpent that rattles and coils
|
| God, tell me what has now became of us
|
| Shame on us for becoming a race so dangerous
|
| And even with hate in us
|
| You never did stray from us
|
| Instead of forsaking us
|
| You have forgaven us
|
| Why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why does the devil be callin' my name
|
| Why?
|
| Testin' my faith with his devilish games
|
| Why?
|
| Feeling insane as I was in the brain
|
| Why oh Why?
|
| Followed by darkness you fear them, then blow
|
| Why?
|
| Circle above me you see the black crows
|
| Why?
|
| Father forgive me you Reap what you sow
|
| Why oh Why?
|
| Do we get off on the fact that our governments fuckin' Iraq from the back
|
| And we know that this hate is from us and not from Allah?
|
| Why do we gamble with givers of grief?
|
| And I’m wondering why do we live in the dark and my life’s not fa la la la la la
|
| Momma be askin' me, (why?) Do you believe in this?
|
| Bitches be askin' me, (why?) Don’t you wanna peep in this?
|
| Niggas be askin' me, (why?) Do you put pussy on a pedestal?
|
| Pimpin' you prolly should put money first 'cause you weak in this
|
| Why is this shit draggin'?
|
| Why does everybody know to operate a fully automatic
|
| And nobody with the lovin' that the one above is givin' us a little bit of
|
| light up in the hell of it?
|
| Everybody livin' in the polygamy you givin' me but ain’t nobody celibate
|
| So the question we askin' is Why?
|
| Are we the wickedness? |
| When is the trip for the sickness to fly?
|
| Look at the blood and the tears and the piss and the shit in yo eye
|
| God will be back any day any second so wait for the day that He spray and we die
|
| Could you tell me why would he ever show mercy these days
|
| Why?
|
| Just look at the world we be cursin' the earth with these plagues
|
| Why?
|
| Sometimes I feel evil as if it’s the birth of the worst
|
| And the Earth needs emergency surgery all of this hurt can be raised
|
| How?
|
| Turn us into demons that’s that’s screamin' I’m dreamin' that even the devil
|
| was special before he had fallen from grace
|
| Why do we murder
|
| But God Won’t abandon his women and children even though his baby’s will bust a
|
| 380 all in your face
|
| Why do we kill
|
| Gotta hit him in the body with a bullet will you pull it but he never look a
|
| brother see he’ll love us even if he didn’t feel us to the fullest
|
| Please tell me Why?
|
| How you love us even though we gotta hurt each other even our brother or the
|
| mother I don’t feel it on the realest you can put it any way you wanna put it
|
| Why?
|
| Even through the terror on the planet you can still find love
|
| Why?
|
| Even through the torture and the murder you can still find love
|
| But if you try to be a rebel on a level of the devil we get buried with the
|
| shovel and be cast outta heaven so in hell we can still wind up
|
| Why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why-y-y-y oh-h-h-h why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why?
|
| Why-y-y-y-y oh-h-h-h Why? |
