Tell Me Why

Lyrics

[Intro] Tell me why Tell me why [Verse 1] Why are they always pushing me? Block my vision so I can't see Hold me down while they grind on me Mind your own, just let me be [Chorus 1] Go let them in, there are our friends as long as they play monopoly Nothing to hide, set up the scene heading a false reality We need a hype, [?] if we believe in what they say Closer to you [?] it don't seem so far away [Verse 2] Watch your mouth and mind your speech Be aware, stay on your feet Try to learn some when you weep Why are they always hounding me? [Refrain] Why? Tell me why [Bridge] Brothers crying, sons are dying Sounds of weapons, bullets flying Never giving, always taking Filled with lies, always faking Never caring, never sharing Always rough and overbearing [Refrain] Why do you want to fight with me? Tell me why Tell me why [Verse 3] Sell them tractors, give them seeds Help them boost their economies Lift them up and hear their pleas Mind your own, just set them free [Chorus 2] [?] and friends, thinking that they can run the show [?] never could see, yeah, it's closer than you know
