Staz - Why ft. Jesi Riddle lyrics
rate meWhy? Oh, oh!
Open your eyes to where we live
Look around at this war we’re fighting.
Everyone is not the same, nothing will ever change
All the fighting and the violence
I can’t take it no more
Growing crime rate, limitless race hate
No time to wait, gotta react, scrub and eliminate
Deactivate the dictates, exterminate templates
Obliterate, eradicate and then recreate
Where is the love? They got us cornered in the box,
Watching time fly by, counting clock tik toks,
Let me ask Mr. President to look me in the eyes
Make him answer why can’t they cut the drug supply?
Why do we suffer? Why do we cry?
Why don’t you try to feed the hungry and poor? Why?
And while my homies are robbing and jacking out there
Your partners are sipping Chando, is the fair?
We die off, but have flame in the eyes,
Break out in revolt, main aim to arise!
Through the mist of the lies, and the shadows of blame
I throw my hands to the sky, yelling “ we’re all the same!”
Chorus:
Open your eyes to where we live
Look around at this was we’re fighting
Everyone is not the same, nothing will ever change
All the fighting and the violence
I can’t take it no more
I never had a role model, grew with no father
Momma raised me and my bad ass brother
Another young scrub, looking for love
But the streets is rough, so we gotta look above
This is war for liberty, freedom, independence
Time to force the law to make amendments
Tired of hitting fences, swiningin like a dancer.
Taking cover from the shots after every lost chance
Society can’t understand us, claiming we the cancer
A bunch of dirty gangsters
And these discriminating times, be so heavy on my mins
Forced to get a place to hide my, voice, soul and pride
My mind rewinds to the day we divided
Each day we’re reminded that the state is one sided
We were lied to, tried to break away, escape
But the fate brought hate, till we were trapped and raped
Chorus:
Open your eyes to where we live
Look around at this was we’re fighting
Everyone is not the same, nothing will ever change
All the fighting and the violence
I can’t take it no more
Hiding from the police
We got people sleeping on the streets
Open your heart, the hate and pain is just to start
We can find a plan, if you take my hand
Take a look around, see who you’re lying to.
Chorus:
Open your eyes to where we live
Look around at this was we’re fighting
Everyone is not the same, nothing will ever change
All the fighting and the violence
I can’t take it no more
