olup bitenlerde neden nicin arayan, ardinda duran sakli anlami cozmeye calisan, aydinlanma azmiyle yanip tutusan, arastirmaci kisiliklere has soru cumlesi.. "anlat neden boyle.."
bir de sitemkar bir modla, serzenis halinde soyleneni vardir. "neden ama neden?"
Feel no shame about shape
Weather changes their phrase
Even mother will show you another way
So put your glasses on
Nothing will be wrong
There's no blame, there's no fame
It's up to you
The first words should be finded
Whatever hold you back
I can, I can get it off
Tell me what, tell me what, tell me what you want
I don't know why, don't know why, don't know why you afraid
Tell me what, tell me what, tell me what you say
I don't know why, don't know why, too late, it's too late
Have no fear for real
It's just a turning wheel
Once you start up there's no other way
Don't put your eyes on boots
Step forward your roots
There's no aid, there's no trade
It belongs to you
i could see her fall from grace
like a movie star too old to change her life
with a bottle by her hand
every night she went away
i would pray for someone else to change her life
if she wouldn't change for me
tell me why
please tell me why
you stole my life
tell me why
just drown her fear in the same old song
everytime you came back frozen deep inside
was it my love that you feared
i was a misfit all the way
never there to help me grow and change my life
then you smiled and walked away
tell me why
please tell me why
you stole my life
tell me why
all the little things she said to me
(said to me)
were broken thoughts and tainted dreams
(tainted dreams)
if she can't take these memories
it doesn't change a thing
(it doesn't change a thing)
every little word she said to me
(said to me)
that broke my heart and stayed with me
(stayed with me)
i wish that she could hear me scream
she never changed a thing
tell me why
please tell me why
you stole my life

[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
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
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
well i gave you everything i had
but you left me sitting on my own
did you have to treat me oh so bad
all i do is hang my head and moan
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
if there's something i have said or done
tell me what and i'll apologize
if you don't i really can't go on
holding back these tears in my eyes
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
well i'm beggin' on my bended knees
if you'll only listen to my pleas
is there anything i can do
'cause i really can't stand it
i'm so in love with you
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
tell me why you cried
and why you lied to me
