[Syke talking]
Damn, the world's so crazy out here,
Never know what's going on,
Never know why things happen,
But they do,
Well just take it

Verse 1:

As my inner thoughts of reality set in, another day begins,
Cause you never know you were alseep until ya wake up
Will me and my ex-girl make up?,
I don't know but life's a question,
After death is there a resurrection?
Cause the chaos and the mayhem got me crazy,
When will I have my first baby?,
But is there love there?, do I really care?,
I swear, life ain't fair
So much pain and sorrow
Will I see tomorrow
Make a path for my kids to follow,
So it's me against the world,
Can't nobody talke to me
I need psychotherapy,
Forever I cry inside,
I can't hide,
Just tell me why

Chorus:

Why do we do the things that we do? (Just tell me why)
Why do we do the things that we do? (Tell me why)
Why do we do the things that we do? (Tell me why)
Why do we do the things that we do?

Verse 2:

A little kid's refelection is a shadow of death
Just behind him are his first steps
But nobody cares it's just everybody for theyself
So pray to Yahweh if you need help
Cause love don't love nobody alone
Can I stay strong? can I move on?
But I gotta get used to my past being my future road
Seldom travelled but never told,
The world is crazy my mind is paralyzed,
And hypnotized by these walk-bys
Families cry from dead souls lost
I guess our future pays the cost, I want to floss,
But we drownin' in poverty,
My homie said he was gonna get wid me but ain't got wid me
It's so hard on a G tryna elevate in the game
And there's no way to escape the pain
Tell me why

Chorus

Verse 3:

So many trials and tribulations,
We livin' in desperation
Everyone's givin' up there's no motivation,
Organization or self determination
The youth is fallin' and callin' the OGs
Hand up some kis or get degrees, Lord please
I can't take it the world is comin' to an end,
So God forgive me for my sin
Cause I ain't never had a thang, will it change?
So I can rearrange,
The game ah life is the hardest game yet
Cause nobody knows what's coming up next
No respect, for our elders cause they fightin' us scared
what happened to the love we once shared, no one cares
So I soak my pains in Remy Martin and gettin' high
I know that's not the answer,
So I ask why?

Chorus

[Kid #1]: Syke why everybody die?
[Kid #2]: Why the world so crazy?,
[Kid #3]: Why everybody go to jail?
[Kid #4]: Why little kids get kidnapped?

Chorus ('til fade)
