Yeah, like wow
Why do I have to be
Yeah, why do I have to be
Mmm, fed up, just fed up
Oh wow, yeah
Have to be, have to be

Why do I have to be
Looking at mothers and sisters and brothers in agony
Why do I have to be
Afraid of your color, ashamed of my color? It's tragic see
Why do I have to
Have a bachelor's and then still hadda work in Applebee's
Why do I have to be
Struggling down here? Oh God I need strategy
Things not getting worse they getting exposed
'Cause Apple adding extra i's to your phone
Conspiracy theories no longer seem hoax
Oh gosh, I can't breathe, I need faith, I need hope
And they say easy access one click away from your goals
But I'm still oppressed and somehow I'm still broke
And with all that knowledge technology
People still look in between their legs and then they question anatomy

Why
Why do we have to be
It ain't making no sense
This is a tragedy
Why do I have to be
Like why, We need some strategy
What's the reason, you know
Why do we have to be
Why do we have to be, have to be

Why do we have to see
A lack of peace? The system separating the families
Why do we have to be
Rejecting health? 'Cause the good food, well it not attracting we
Pandemic give nature a chance to breathe
Social distancing magnify anxiety
But the racism trash is a pile, a heap
And we ain't take it out yet so we burn it down drastically
Freedom of worship is at risk
They think they want cheese so they don't trust none of the Pastors
They don't trust he skin
But when they wear these chains I never see the black one
Jesus what happen? Repeated patterns
Identity crisis have us in shackles and naturally
We do wrong when we know that it bad for we
Why do we have to be

It's like you know something wrong
What really happen G
It don't make sense
This is a travesty
Like why are we going through all of this
I don't even think I have the patience for all of this
Why do we have to be, have to be

Why do we have to be
So obsessed with single moms that we forget the good fathers G
Why do we have to
Get sick by medicine and regular things that we hadda eat
Is Disney, Google, FB the illuminati? Hold on
What if Siri and Alexa was lesbian, are they together
What plans you thinking they have set for us
In life have so many distractions
Unborn human rights well it been none
Time going just like your data
TikTok everyone wanna be dancers
Short-term pleasure just for greed we malicious we
Tip we souls off for service expeditiously
Not hard to see, the savagery
Of this world just breeding more apathy

Just to relate on a level you know, like
You look around and you... just wonder what it is going on
And, it's just a reminder, like
The testing of your faith Worketh Patience
