Why did we evolve only to expand Stopping only when we got all of another's lands Why do we consume everything we see Stopping only when we feel so sick we can't eat Why do we keep populating the earth When we know we can't grow enough food in this dirt Why do we waste so much of what we make When the landfill full we'll just dump it in the lake Why did we all fall into the trap Of the unarbited targeted marketing crap Start with the facts: corporations are people, or so the courts say Privacy a thing of the past, or you could move to Norway The AG reviving archaic mandatory minimals Daily the truth erodes in a process that's subliminal We treat children like they criminals ripping them apart From their families, honestly I don't know where to start Why do those who privileged have to prey on the week The sadists indeed are painted as the saviors But they slavers and cheats who bear the blame for the chains on our feet The bankers tainted money made from games of deceit So the middle class shrinks and shrivels Little by little the rich leaving the rest to try to solve the riddle As the days fade time erodes and years go by But I still see a glimmer of hope I don't know why Why do I find myself gazing at the sky Tryna find the moment time passed me by Why does it hurt so much to look upon our regrets and Reject the effects built upon false precepts Why does power absolutely corrupt Why is too much of anything never enough Why do we leave veterans neglect and ever leave him begging with cups Why should I have pride? I know it's cause I'll never give up Why do we protect cold blooded murderers Of unarmed men then pretend we never heard of em DOJ reports find this pervasive and prevalent Killing a man cause of his melanin Why did men lose the right to cry Why do women have to fight for every right not to be denied Why is it every time I feel we turning the tide I catch a glimmer of a cross just burning in eyes Why is it ok if it's a white lie Why is it such a pain being a nice guy I look to the night sky and see a shooting star But I don't make a wish I just wonder who we are Why was I looking at the moment of the flash Ash pass as the death of a meteor enter the past Turned to dust that one day gon' fall to the earth And I'm left to wonder what's it all worth I don't see why Why does the 28th year seem to capture souls Deaths pile up and now we mourn with the caskets closed Why are the greatest artists haunted by these demons Driven to a substance that could make stop breathin It's Amy winehouse it's Curt Cobain It's Jimi Hendrix lost and now it's all in vain We feel they pain but we only doubling down Why did it take so long to see why in trouble in town Why did we allow doctors to start hustling pills OCs take these cause your sufferings real Oh gee, it may seem they've enough of the bills But this is America, they don't give a f*ck if your healed But they hope that you're hooked so now we open the book and Ask why so many die so broken and shook Overdosing and choking on this dope from the crooks Potent potions sold to numb both the cold and the cooked Leaving us teetering on the precipice above the abyss Teaching us each of us know death has the loveliest kiss Why did it come to this for us to wake from the dream Why can't a politician say what he mean I make it my mission to understand and never deny Experience of another man I stare in the eye I'm hoping that one day I'll get a reply And I can respond when someone wanna ask me why
