Why Songtext

Why Songtext
And I ask myself "why?"
I can′t understand why?
Sometimes a nigga wake up nah mean?
Wonder why he do the shit he do
Nah mean, it's life
We make the most out of it though
AIDS took so many brothers, yet we still going raw under covers
It′s 2009, gotta think smarter
Stop being baby daddies and be fathers
I can't understand (why)
Some dudes vacated to the Hamptons
Knowing they seeds need Pampers
Wanna be a part of they life, instead they tricking different women
No room for a wife or a family (I can't understand why)
God got a million names
If we made it his image
Does he see it the same
If we flesh of his flesh does he feel our pain?
Teardrops symbolizing the rain
I just can′t understand (why)
I get high to forget about the present
Why I′m not riding in the S6
But life is all about decisions
Make the most outta mine while I'm living, I ask myself
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I′d change but it's clear I′ll always be the same
I ask myself (why)
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I'd change but it′s clear I'll always be the same
I ask myself
I swear life is a maze, I'm just tryin′ to get it right before I fade
But I keep hitting walls
Everyday is like a battle
Learn somethin′ different every time a nigga travel
Still (Why) They hatin' when I get home
Sayin′ my name just so they can get known
Not in the same lane
It's ironic how I became a product of fame
20 years old out on my own
(I can′t understand why?)
I made those decisions I made, friendships decayed
Bitches I laid and never called back
People I robbed, spots where I hung
Rocks that I slung
Niggas I socked and made fall back
(I can't understand why)
Do good brothers turn bad?
Whippin 7 and a half outta 6 that′s how we learn math
Kinda sick how we earn cash
Not in a right mind so I pedal along the wrong path (can't understand why)
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I'd change but it′s clear I′ll always be the same
I ask myself (why)
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I'd change but it′s clear I'll always be the same
I ask myself
Everybody caught up in politics
Democrats, Republicans. When will the drama end?
Mathematic how the government dividin′ us
Yet my mind shine bright as the Metropolis (why)
I feel the need to shine a light on the populace
So I write like a columnist
Dictate like a communist
Through it all I continue to stand tall as the monuments
(I can't understand why)
Heaven to Hell so I′m ponderin'
Which afterlife I'm a wind up in
Took too many losses so I gotta win
Fatherless, soakin′ up knowledge from my momma′s friends (why)
They all sold drugs and love to puff weed
An' angel dust
Couldn′t teach me how to succeed
So I bailed out, in the lab
Beats sittin' in the jailhouse.
(Can′t understand...)
Still I ask myself (why)
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I'd change but it′s clear I'll always be the same
I ask myself
I do what I do, live how I live
It is what it is but
I told my momma I'd change but it′s clear I′ll always be the same
I ask myself
I can′t understand why?
