Why Oh Why

Yeah, the Borialis style
What, what's up, Doc?
It's goin' out to all those
Who fail to be themselves

Somebody tell me why we landed here on the planet, left stranded
We suffer in this land then we leave it empty-handed
Experience a fraction of eternity then vanish
I never took advantage, I just took it all for granted
In my youth man, I used to smoke a quarter a night
Was bored of my life, ignorin' all the glorious sights
I was lost gettin' caught up in all the hype
It took me ten years for gettin' my priorities right
I'm up close and personal wit' my daily abuse
But all you fairies say "Spare me!" 'cause you're scared of the truth

Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide
Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide

You know I really think it's funny
When you're flauntin' all your automobiles
'Cause I know that money's something that you ought'a conceal
The more you reveal, the more we know it all isn't real
I bet you frauds keep talkin' 'til your coffin is sealed
But it's okay, you behave in anyway that you want
'Cause I can look you in the face and know you're fakin' the funk
So take a second and brace yourself for takin' this punch
You may leave a little shaken when I break through your front

Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide
Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide

[Instrumental Break]

I was just another White kid who suffered an identity crisis
I ain't the only one, I know that many are like this
So I did it how I did it, never cared if they liked it
Kids got so excited they was ready to bite shit
Me gettin' on the mic is just like getting a license
To be hittin' all you critics that are stereotypin'
My only problem is I got plenty of vices
But I'll keep on writin' 'til I'm ready and ripe

Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide
Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide

Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide
Why, oh, why must everyone be in disguise?
Y'get nothin' out of livin' lies
Why? 'Cause everybody needs to hide
