WILL SMITH TELL ME WHY LYRICS


TELL ME WHY LYRICS by WILL SMITH:
From Will Smith's new album, Lost & Found)


[INTRO] - Why, why, why, why, why. Why  
 
[CHORUS]  
 
I really wish I could explain it baby (why),  
It's just the world is kinda crazy baby (why),  
Ain't no pretty way to paint it baby (why),  
Don't cry, dry your eyes  
September 11th, I woke up about 7am, west coast time, French toast and my  
Turkey bacon, taking my time, awakin', turning my TV on  
To my surprise, saw what everybody in the world saw  
Me & my children, images were chillin'  
My son said, "Daddy were there people in that building'"  
A cold sweat, frozen with a lump in my chest  
I heard his question, couldn't bring my lips to say "Yes" to him  
That night at my son's side, he cried & prayed  
For the one's who died in the World Trade  
His palms to God, seeds and qualms with God  
He just kept on pressin' me, wanna know why  
Then one week later our bombs were dropped  
We seein' them on CNN, they just won't stop  
The infrared images of brutal attack  
He said, "Daddy now we killin' em back"; (right, right)  
 
[CHORUS - (2x)]  
 
[BRIDGE - Mary J. Blige:]  
Mmmmm, souls are captured  
Dreams are stolen, hearts are broken  
Evil blatantly rewarded  
Hate surrenders, Love exalted  
Hope elated, negativity is shorted  
[ Tell Me Why lyrics from
http://www.lyricsyoulove.com/w/will_smith/tell_me_why/ ]
Why is the bomb always getting the last word  
& why did her uncle have to molest her  
& why did all them cops have to be shootin' to kill  
& why did all them priests have to act so ill  
Tell Me Why did James Byrd Jr. have to be touched  
Tell me why did Malcolm & Martin depart from us  
Tell me why did that sniper make the little boy shoot  
& why does human life always denied for loot  
Tell me why did Mandela have to live in a cage  
Why did my brother Sterling have to die at that age  
Tell me why did Reginald Denny deserve his fate  
& why the f*@k can't love seem to defeat hate  
Tell me why is it so hard for all the children to eat  
Why did Pac & Biggie Smalls have to fall in the street  
Tell me why did Jam Master Jay have to go that way  
Please what am I supposed to say to my kids when they say 'Why''  
 
[CHORUS - (2x)]  
 
[VERSE 3]  
Can't explain it baby, life is just really crazy  
I mean if it's world wars or the life of a little baby  
We got more stores than they got rice under Buddha lazy  
You live four scores & still it be driving you crazy  
But for me I try to see the bright side  
Sometimes it'd be like the goodness be tryin' to hide  
Then try to flee, but it can't it's deep inside  
Sweetie, you be the light for the others, make 'em believe in God  
 
[BRIDGE - Mary J. Blige:]
