Intro)
All that I can give man
Is this pain that I've been livin
(The remix the remix)
Why they got me in the system
Why? Why they gotta do me like dat
(Styles P)
Why is garbage music sellin alot
whys da music industry's state of mind real far from hiphop
why vocal puff a few in black
why build more jails less schools cuz we unda attack
why keep da 4 pound on da air
da revolution will not be televised 2 kids around here
why keep my right fist in da sky
i let em know dat we gun make it dont plan a demise
why u gotta teach dem kids on ur own
cuz wen u get in da zone dey bringin u in u both get cloned
whyy i still gotta pray 2 da lord
cuz hiphop reached da new world order and dey playin dis hard
why rappers gettin protection
why da country aint flip wen dey jerked da votes da last election
why i die 4 all my beliefs
i got a look at my kids i rather smile den cry wen dey sleep
That's Why
(Chorus-Anthony Hamilton)
Why i gotta struggle man
man why r all da brothers locked behind bars
nd we drained up in da system
blow dey brains n im battlin my pistol
(Common)
Why they say i changed for a grl
why u worried bout my clothes if my flows gun change da world
why u wait till u 30 to try 2 be hard
why i gotta hide religion if i believin in God
why is bush actin like he tryin 2 get osama
why dont we impeach him and elect obama
why is rick james remembered 4 classic hits
why dont we remember rick 4 smackin a bitch
why did ricky williams retire they mad in miami
why did justin sell janet out and go 2 da grammys
why u kill on every song its a right 2 scream
and if u holdin ur throne y we argue who is da king
why sold em 4 da gangsta y sold em 4 blues
why dey hype brittney up dey kno she kant sing
im whippin da chain of black american dreams
why i kno dat in my heart it remains unseen
Why?
(Chorus)
(Nas)
Like it or not blood of a p
