[Chorus]
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please
[Verse 1]
Tell it, I’m centered on greatness in the booth
We on eleven like the needle tappin' corners in the coupe
I thank the lord at night 'cause I might just snap under pressure
And act a fool like they gave me license
No cents inside my bank account
But I can turn the fuckin' party out
Homies is thirsty 'cause these girls runnin' in and out
When In doubt, hold yo' own
**** in the danger zone
Cannot be no copy clone
****, you gotta go and get yo own
Tell me, lawd, please, will I fall to my knees in the streets in the rain?
With a brain for a taste
Of the unheavenly grace
Slipped on my side fell on my face to a sunken dark place
Maturation necessary
Triumph is hereditary
Because we curse no mo', we hurt no mo'
Finna go down to the corner store
I’m back, do we do one mo'?
Holla back, I’ll let you know, yeah
[Chorus]
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please
[Verse 2]
Lawd, please, can ya tell me why?
I’m just a man, I cannot see the plan
Up on my feet I stand and march forward through the mud
Thinkin' 'bout what this shit could be if I could go back
The height of the dough stack
Knew before I got that
Dark days came along
But I brought it right back
Grind for the paper stack
Look at that
Right there
It was underneath my hair
Had to lose it just to see
All the shit that I could be
[Chorus]
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please, tell me, please, lawd, why?
Tell me, lawd, please
[Outro]
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
Tell me, lawd, please
