(Shawn)

(What?), (Why?)

(It's like da beat is just askin' me Why?)

(Why daddy?)

(Maaan)

(Uh! Uh!)

Eye look at pictures of my kids n think

(Why?)

So blessed but so stressed, know they don't deserve this

Weight on my shoulders, got me hopeless (Uhhhhh)

Thinkin' if I never existed, I would never be mentioned

Have a good heart but yet I'm convicted

State of mind, locked in this prison

Might as well lie n steal like politicians

Whether bad or with good intentions

You get crucified it's no different, if deez walls could listen

You hear da pain screamin', (Owwww) comin' from my inner demons

A fallen angel, I remain decent (Aaaaaawwwh)

People on da outside lookin' in never understand (Nope)

Til' they at da table gettin' dealt da same hand

I had hardships n tried to be an honest man (Yeeah!)

This world keep takin' from me like Uncle Sam (Gimme dat!)

Eye look to da sky n ask God (Why?)

I stay positive n keep going, even tho I know I have to reap everything I sewed in my clothing

Once among da chosen, (Yup!) 

I had a dream like Dr. King n aspirations minus all da lacerations

To feel da message in my music like a writer in his publications

Invadin' souls n mentals (Mentals)

To send you swingin' on conditions meant to uplift you, here's da issue (Yeeah!)

I'm not perfect, God embodies everything good about me in my main temple

Bit da apple, Shine's words bleed on pages like Eve's menstrual

(Yaaaaaawh)

Life is short but it's long n hard, it ain't simple (Nope)

Strugglin' with sins like every individual, my last days (Tell em') is gettin' kind of critical revealed in Revelations pivotal 

Among a government claimin' to be empirical

All they want is WAR! (Why?) (Why?)

I just want PEACE!, UNITY! for my peepz

Love in between da sheets, (Uh-huh) no more violence (Uh-huh) on deez streets

Only joy when we weep, (Yeah) if I should die before I wake (Yeah)

Pray da Lord my soul to keep, smilin' on da outside but steady cryin' underneath can you tell me... 

(Why?)

I'm hurtin' constantly, flat-line vitals unresponsive

There goes my conscience, (Yup!) only God knows!

Only God Knows!, only God knows! (Why?)
