Why is that?Why is that?(Tell me why) |
| [00:28.43] |
I wasn't sleepin' I was creepin' slidin', hidin' |
| [00:31.33] |
I would like the girl behind me roll up a bad time thinkin' |
| [00:34.52] |
Mentally sinkin' 'specially brinkin' |
| [00:36.51] |
Two decades and a half making a path for mine to follow |
| [00:39.04] |
The world is hollow, yet it's full of crap, prepared to gamble |
| [00:41.49] |
I give you half of chiseled pencil |
| [00:43.72] |
What's the come up, cried a ton of tears, drunk a ton of beers |
| [00:45.81] |
That's fun at first but learned in person fear throughout the years |
| [00:49.07] |
Kept my ears open, eyes scoping, mouth locked |
| [00:50.72] |
Don't rock the boat if you can't swim |
| [00:52.56] |
Nobody may not be there with the limb to limb |
| [00:54.85] |
This is the end, still I can't explain the fact |
| [00:57.39] |
Why the fuck shit gotta be like that? |
| [01:05.37] |
Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that |
| [01:04.92] |
Know what, I said it |
| [01:06.07] |
Hear me clearin' over so severe and dreaded |
| [01:08.10] |
That they need to be beheaded, why? |
| [01:10.80] |
I'm readily, steadily stimulate and then mutilate |
| [01:14.19] |
And all sloppily, copied imitations |
| [01:16.41] |
Cause they irritatin' so I'm intimidatin' them |
| [01:18.61] |
Over the snare with simply a stare |
| [01:21.26] |
Bringin' them turbulent terror |
| [01:22.31] |
And they know this 'cause they can feel it |
| [01:23.86] |
He knew that it was mine |
| [01:25.34] |
Still the sucker tried to steal it |
| [01:26.93] |
So I had to reveal it, through provin' |
| [01:28.52] |
That I am a star machine and fly |
| [01:31.42] |
And by just blinkin' my eye in a flash |
| [01:32.63] |
I flush out the face, layin' low-key |
| [01:34.52] |
Trained eyes locate to focus on the phony |
| [01:36.86] |
Mister sometime-homey, why he act like that |
| [01:39.07] |
I thought he had my back, I thought he had our backs |
| [01:41.65] |
But it was him who I should've never trusted |
| [01:44.01] |
And not at least till he got his attitude adjusted |
| [01:46.79] |
Or mouth busted for acting all dusted |
| [01:49.14] |
But bust this now when I'm out |
| [01:51.03] |
I seek and thought out the whole scene |
| [01:53.28] |
For all sinister's types, sneak that scheme |
| [01:54.68] |
They come into my face |
| [01:56.03] |
I send them tightmen home |
| [01:57.67] |
When they're sufferin' |
| [01:58.71] |
From the double agent syndrome, why? |
| [02:01.05] |
Why it gotta be like that |
| [02:06.88] |
Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that |
| [02:13.72] |
Sometimes this world means everything to me |
| [02:15.72] |
The inside is lovely to these eyes I see |
| [02:18.56] |
And sometimes in my mind all I wanna do is cry |
| [02:21.64] |
Holly off, seven of them drops from my eye |
| [02:23.78] |
Thugs drain out my skin 'cause I'm pissed from within |
| [02:26.38] |
I see a situation now and all I do is grin |
| [02:28.97] |
People think I'm high but I'm mentally travelin' |
| [02:31.31] |
Agin' in short times 'cause life's a unravelin' |
| [02:34.21] |
While I'm straddlin' more's up this fuckin' mike |
| [02:37.85] |
I hate to be a pilot, crashin' in a flight |
| [02:39.29] |
People need to know about this thing called life |
| [02:41.78] |
'Cause if you see the light then life's alright |
| [02:44.23] |
So can you dig it |
| [02:45.52] |
Be like that you just be like that |
| [02:48.86] |
Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that |
| [02:51.55] |
Be like that you just be like that |
| [02:53.69] |
Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that |
| [03:00.26] |
I jumped inside the jeep as I embark on my darkness |
| [03:03.00] |
Popped in my freestyle tapes |
| [03:04.71] |
Started reminiscing about my little homie |
| [03:06.30] |
Who was raised in Wyoming wanted to be famous |
| [03:08.89] |
So he came to Californey on the microphony |
| [03:11.73] |
Was super bad and what not |
| [03:13.43] |
But he was the kinda fella to follow paths that was hot |
| [03:15.82] |
He became too fascinated with that gang related flavor |
| [03:18.46] |
That he modificated rearranged his behavior |
| [03:21.15] |
He hooked up quick with the influential slang |
| [03:23.70] |
Gangsta-strow corn rolls the whole shabbang |
| [03:26.70] |
Braggin' and boastin', boastin' and braggin' |
| [03:28.94] |
How we 'posed to be hangin' with Baby Gees, I was baggin' |
| [03:32.12] |
But what you tryin' hooride up on the bandwagon |
| [03:34.06] |
Hopin' they'd hit him in the head but he steady saggin' |
| [03:36.91] |
Like he a hog creepin' through the smog |
| [03:39.20] |
Smokin' on some Indo sippin' on a cup of O-Dog |
| [03:42.24] |
Like most who come to this West Coast society |
| [03:44.58] |
Tried to be because they think it's fly to be a menace |
| [03:47.04] |
So what a relic way to end this, got rolled up |
| [03:49.97] |
When he was strolling on a Sunday after tennis |
| [03:52.46] |
Niggas never listen, they gotta learn their lesson |
| [03:54.90] |
The hard way I'm guessin', guessin' |
| [03:57.29] |
BD as I hit the B and make a right on Weston |
| [04:00.22] |
Pops in my head the proverbial question, why? |
| [04:03.41] |
Be like that, you just be like that |
| [04:05.71] |
Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that |
| [04:09.41] |
Tell me why |
| [04:10.05] |
(Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) |
