Tell Me Why

[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
