Tell Me Why

Erik Zogaj

I just feel like my mindset is different
And it's just, I don't see nobody being compared to me
(Nobody)
Instead of encouraging people to follow their dreams, it just gets bashed
And this is why I got to tell the story
Cause if I don't then, who will
Look
I don't know why
Why it's every time I see you, I can read yo' mind
Tell me if it's love or not, Cause I can't take the signs
When my name is brought up, they be hatin' all the time
I don't get it why
They don't respect the effort that I put into my grind
They expect me to sit on my ass and never shine
My name has a meaning, I'll be the reason it's defined
Ask myself once, I ask myself twice, just tell me why
I never doubted myself, I knew I was the best from the jump
Can you tell me why the world is the way that it is
You don't gotta lie, can you just tell me why
Giving up is never an option, yeah I always gotta try
"Perspective", was in February, now the "Story's", in July
Favors can't be favors, it's always an eye for an eye
Can you tell me why? Yeah, can you tell me why
Aye, aye, aye
Can you tell me why
(Tell me why?)
Aye, aye, aye
Can you tell me why
(Tell me why?)
I don't got time for arguments
Just leave it at goodbye
The same how Derrick "Rose", now it's my time to rise
You understood "Perspective", you saw what I saw through my eyes
Over a year, I had lost all of my ties
Now let me tell you who I know I am
Short and simple, I'm just a man with a plan
Enter the mindset of "E.Z", as I guide you through the story
You heard the "Perspective", and you understood the message
Now as we enter the "Story", you must hear the pain and you must hear the glory
The "Story", represents growth, as it represents change, it portrays who I am
Every question always gotta end with why
Let me tell my truth, as I speak through my mind
I was asked how can you say how you feel and just rhyme
Not sure if it's hard work or talent, we'll know with time
Time after time, I feel like I'm always in my prime
Do I really gotta show my skills like this a combine
The world has a tendency into painting an image
On people without understanding their reasoning
I want the "Story", to encompass "Morals", and values
I value every "L", I take as an opportunity
To learn from it and embrace it as a lesson
So then eventually, I can pull out the win, but it will always be envisioned as a loss
And for that
(For that)
You will always have to pay the cost
The opportunity is shown right in front of your eyes
Best believe, I'ma take it and represents what's mine
I need to relieve stress, let me put that pressure on her spine
Vision so clear, I can see through the darkest times
Hard work really pays off, you would know if you see the stars align
You would know if you see the stars align
This is not even a percent of what the "Story", has in store
I'm just loosening up
I'ma say it again, can you tell me why
They gotta hate on my name all the fucking time
When I make it, you better not be surprised
When I make it, don't claim you was always on my side
Yeah, yeah
Tell me why
(Tell me why)
Yeah, yeah
Tell me why
(Tell me why)
