[Hook Elana Lane] Someone please come wake me if Im screaming I am dreaming, of the nightmares that we are alive in x2 [Verse 1 Tijon] BUT WHY ME!? Wait! First set the background Small room, only lights in the foreground Thats where this boys found, Early adolescent In his eye still the innocence of early adolescences Other side of his pupil, A man who sees him as his pupil A worn version of himself but remains an equal A man who sinned but saw rigorous fundamentals Develop in front of ignorant privilege given Imperials Now... His heart beats colder Now... His mind moves wiser A live wire in his younger year Now he peers a mere few second To the future of his actions Just a set a collection of failed efforts Together forever wealth, When held as life lessons Progressive thoughts on his mind If he knew the nightmares hed live to get here Would he be willing to pay the fare? [Hook x2] [Verse 2 Tijon] But WHY ME? Cause its you they put their faith in But WHY NOW? Cause you see the shape this games in And dont you ever for a second act like you dont know what youve been handed They gave you their minds never take advantage And boy, you take for granted a soul this shitll vanish Quicker than a convicts say at the poll Concentrate on ya foes, when you slip they will Slide a dagger to ya vertebrae What you heard em say? They love ya they love ya If its drama its nothing Its never that, When its real love its never spoke scrap An never toe tap, around whats in ya dome cap Locked minds, Mean a lock jaw, never propah Shit if ya gonna move ya people, at least ya said you would But it what if Martin n Malcom was spittin that coulda shoulda woulda Would we be 6 feet under ponder I wonder Im saying you could be a king, or be the death of him [Hook x2] [Verse 3 Tijon] But why me? Something Im still asking myself I know your shoulders just aint broad enough yet But youll be brought up right bet When the times come to fight to get where we at now Lock on like a pit, Prince, and never back down Find a win within a loss Take with stride every great man bared a cross Cross, bridges as they come Some will burn, more will rise from the ash But the truth is you gotta learn On your own [HookOutro Elana Lane]
