( 1stChorus )
Please Tell Me Why ?
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Please Tell Me Why
We Cant Unite
All Become As One
So We Don't Have To Fight.
( 1st Verse )
Tell Me Why Do I Have To Go Threw This ?
Tell Me Why Do I Have To Smoke On This
To Get High, And Get Threw All This Sh**
Frustration In My Mind
That I Cant Deal With
I Feel It
Getting By
Trying To Succeed For My People
Feel The Hating That Blinds Me When I See You
Your The Same Color
And We The Same Race
Don't Have The Same Mother
But We Came From The Same Place
Mexicano For Life
That's Why I Always Smile
We Put It Down For Chicanos
We Low Profile
Does It Hurt To See Your Own People Succeed ?
I Think It's Just A Case Of Jealousy Turned Into Greed
You Wanna Be The One To Make a Difference In Your Race
But Your Talent For Good Use
Dont Hate Cause It's A Waste.
And Im Giving All The Props To The Brown
All The Ones Who Be Down The One Who b**ping Our Sound
(2nd Chorus )
Oh Lord
Please Tell Me Why
We Cant Unite
All Become As One
So We Don't Have To Fight. x2
( 2nd Verse )
All The Pain, The Agony
My Dad Runinng Out On Me
Telling Lies To Me
Wasn't Ever There For Me
Time's Runinng Out
There Is No Time To Waste
Lord Please Tell Me Why, I Got A Gun Up On My Waist ?
Is The Life I Live
In Order To Survive
I'll Do Anything
To Give My Child A Good Life
No Such Thing Of No One Crying
As There Is Of No One Dying
Dont Run Away From Your Problems
Spend Your Life Flying High
Off Of Drugs
Suspended In Time
Your Problems Will Be Right There Waiting
Homie Dont Waste Time
And Ever Say That You Cant
The Lord Makes Anything Possible
Turn The Negative Into Positive
And You'll Be Unstoppable.
Have The Faith Of Yourself
And Be The Leader Of Your Destiny
Dont Follow The RestOr You'll End Up In The Cementary
Lord Forgive Me For My Sins
And Forgive My Thoughts
Help Me Threw These Times Of Pain
I'll Pay Whatever It Cost.
(3rd Chorus )
Oh Lord
Please Tell Me Why
We Cant Unite
All Become As One
So We Don't Have To Fight. x2
Gradually Fades.
Please Tell Me Why ?
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Please Tell Me Why
We Cant Unite
All Become As One
So We Don't Have To Fight.
