Lyrics to Me Why : [Mary J. Whyyyyyy, Whyyyyyy, [Chorus: Will Smith - Mary repeats in background] I wish I could explain it baby just the world is kinda crazy baby Ain't no pretty way to it baby cry, dry your eyes [Verse Will Smith] 11th I woke up about 7 AM West coast time, french toast and my bacon my time awakin, turnin my TV on To my surprise, saw what in the world saw Me and my children, were chillin My son - daddy were there people in that building? A cold sweat, with a lump in my chest I heard his question, couldn't bring my to say yes to him night at my son's side, he cried And prayed for the who died in the World Trade His to God, seeds of qualms with God He just, kept on me, wanna know why Then one week later our bombs dropped We seein them, on CNN, they just won't The infrared, images of brutal He "Daddy now we killin 'em back," right right [Chorus] - 2X + (Mary J. Blige ad lib crooning) [Interlude: Mary J. are captured (souls are captured) Dreams are (dreams are stolen) Hearts are (hearts are broken) Evil plaguin he surrender (hate surrender) exaulted! (Love exaulted!) ELATED! (HOPE ELATED!) Negativity AND.. [Verse Two: Smith] Honest to God, why is the bomb always gettin the word and why, did her have to molest her and why, did all them cops have to be shootin to And why, did all them priests have to act so Tell me why did Byrd Jr. have to be touched? my why did Malcolm and Martin depart from us Tell me why did the make that little boy shoot And why, is human life denied for loot? Tell me WHY did have to live in a cage Why did my brother have to die at that age Tell me why did Reginald Denny deserve his And why the {*BLEEP*} love, seem to defeat hate? Tell me why is it so hard for all the to eat? Why did 'Pac and Biggie Smalls have to fall in the Tell me why did Jam Master Jay have to go way? Please, what am I to say my kids when they say [Chorus] - repeat 2X as Three: Will Smith] Can't it baby life is just really crazy I mean if it's world wars or the life of a baby We got more stores they got rice under buddha lazy You live four and still it be drivin you crazy But for me I try to see the side Sometimes it be like the goodness be to hide or tryin to flee, but it can't, deep inside you be the light for others, make 'em believe in God
