WILL SMITH LYRICS - Tell Me Why

"Tell Me Why"



[INTRO] - Why, why, why, why, why. Why



[CHORUS]



I really wish I could explain it baby (why),

It's just the world is kinda crazy baby (why),

Ain't no pretty way to paint it baby (why),

Don't cry, dry your eyes

September 11th, I woke up about 7am, west coast time, French toast and my

Turkey bacon, taking my time, awakin', turning my TV on

To my surprise, saw what everybody in the world saw

Me & my children, images were chillin'

My son said, "Daddy were there people in that building?"

A cold sweat, frozen with a lump in my chest

I heard his question, couldn't bring my lips to say "Yes" to him

That night at my son's side, he cried & prayed

For the one's who died in the World Trade

His palms to God, seeds and qualms with God

He just kept on pressin' me, wanna know why

Then one week later our bombs were dropped

We seein' them on CNN, they just won't stop

The infrared images of brutal attack

He said, "Daddy now we killin' em back"; (right, right)



[CHORUS - (2x)]



[BRIDGE - Mary J. Blige:]

Mmmmm, souls are captured

Dreams are stolen, hearts are broken

Evil blatantly rewarded

Hate surrenders, Love exalted

Hope elated, negativity is shorted

Why is the bomb always getting the last word

& why did her uncle have to molest her

& why did all them cops have to be shootin' to kill

& why did all them priests have to act so ill

Tell me why did James Byrd Jr. have to be touched

Tell me why did Malcolm & Martin depart from us

Tell me why did that sniper make the little boy shoot

& why does human life always denied for loot

Tell me why did Mandela have to live in a cage

Why did my brother Sterling have to die at that age

Tell me why did Reginald Denny deserve his fate

& why the f*@k can't love seem to defeat hate

Tell me why is it so hard for all the children to eat

Why did Pac & Biggie Smalls have to fall in the street

Tell me why did Jam Master Jay have to go that way

Please what am I supposed to say to my kids when they say 'Why?'



[CHORUS - (2x)]



[VERSE 3]

Can't explain it baby, life is just really crazy

I mean if it's world wars or the life of a little baby

We got more stores than they got rice under Buddha lazy

You live four scores & still it be driving you crazy

But for me I try to see the bright side

Sometimes it'd be like the goodness be tryin' to hide

Then try to flee, but it can't it's deep inside

Sweetie, you be the light for the others, make 'em believe in God



[BRIDGE - Mary J. Blige:]

FIREFLIGHT LYRICS - For Those Who Wait

"For Those Who Wait"



This is for those who wait



Another day, another waiting game

A little different but it's still the same

I am here, but where's the one I'm longing for?

I'm having trouble feeling all alone

Will my heart ever find a home?

I want to hope but sometimes I just don't know

I know I'm not the only one



So we sing a lullaby to the lonely hearts tonight

Let it set your heart on fire, let it set you free

When you're fighting to believe

In a love that you can't see

Just know there is a purpose

For those who wait



I want to open up my eyes

I know that all I need is time

I'm growing stronger every single day

God, I'm going to lean into You now

Letting go of all my fear and doubt

I can't do this on my own so I'll give You control

I know I'm not the only one



The pressure makes us stronger

The struggle makes us hunger

The hard lessons make the difference

The pressure makes us stronger

The struggle makes us hunger

The hard lessons make the difference

And the difference makes it worth it

BJORK LYRICS - Luktar Gvendur

"Luktar Gvendur"



Hann veitti birtu á bádar hendur,

um baeinn sérhvert kvöld

hann luktar Gvendur á liðinni öld



Á gráum hærum gloggt var kenndur

vid glampa á ljosafjöld

hann luktar Gvendur á lidinni öld



Hann heyrdist ganga hægt og hljótt

um hverja götu fram á nott

Hans hjartasá med bros á brá



ef ungan sveinn og yngismey

hann adeins sá hann kveikti ei

en eftirlét theim rókkur skuggablá



Í endur minning æskutid

hann aftur leit, en ástmey blid

Hann örmum vafði fast svo ung og smá



Hann veitti birtu á bádar hendur

um bæinn sérhvert kvöld

hann luktar Gvendur á lidinni öld



Hann heyrdist ganga haegt og hljótt

um hverja götu fram á nott

Hans hjartasá med bros á brá



ef ungan sveinn og yngismey

hann adeins sá hann kveikti ei

en eftirlét theim rókkur skuggablá



Í endur minning aeskutid

hann aftur leit, en ástmey blid

Hann örmum vafði fast svo ung og smá



Hann veitti birtu á bádar hendur

um baeinn sérhvert kvöld

hann luktar Gvendur á lidinni öl

BUSTA RHYMES LYRICS - I Got Bass

"I Got Bass"



It's so good to have you back

To provide us all with that bass

Especially after you finish cookin' that bass



I always been a hungry nigga

The type to set a whole entire country into a frenzy hold up

Whatever niggas wanna do, niggas wanna try

Fuck it, I'm better than the best of them

King Kong and Godzilla mixed up together

While I'm blessing them

It's wrong for niggas to mix us together

Cus I'm better than every fucking body

You should remember that I never been lesser

Always fresher I'm upgrade and bitch constantly mutilating foes

And outshining their favorite

Probably boost the ratings while I'm changing and rearranging the climate

I'm the fucking pilot

Silence, I'm so amazing and so spectacular

The way I sparkle like fireworks then I cause a massacre

And make you feel how the fire hurts

See the dungeon dragon has returned RAWRRR, look

Then I come one after the other then BLAOWW, before the hook

Then I see how the people's amazed and astonished by what I do

Cause I see how the heater just blaze and I tarnish up other dudes

Then I see what I feed to make niggas just WOWW when I'm coming through

Indeed I plant a seed that'll make 'em DROWNN when they get the news

That yes I am the best and unless you could replace

Cause I only deal with facts and the truth is in your face



I got bass (coke)

Every line is (dope)

The type of shit that make 'em feign and had 'em thirsty to (smoke)

I got a funky fresh (car)

And a funky fresh (broad)

I'm a funky fresh (star)

And I'm up to (par)

You see the trunk got bass

Yeah the pots got bass

All the niggas on the block they be dealin' that bass

You see the trunk got bass

I flood the hood with the bass

I'm bringin' the sprinklers out

Even when there's a drought

I got bass

I got bass

I got bass

I got bass



This should be soundin' like a thousand mosquitoes buzzing like hmhmmmhmmhmhmhm

I got you niggas buggin' like fucking zombies is coming

And dumbing and losing it

Got a fucking army that's gunnin' and running for rulership

I'm in a fucking party with something that's stunning' and cute as shit

I don't play with none of you dummies

Who the fuck is you foolin' with

Then I count and sum up my money

Niggas know how I do this shit

Then I bounce and I run through the country

Then I come with a slew of hits that'll massacre the planet

Obliviating the earth

And diabolically smashing everything for whatever it's worth

It's Busta Rhymes godfather beast boy emperor

This rap shit coming to get the bread

Gimmie my cash, quick so that I can be malice

You niggas now running telling do it

So I can reblanket the town with the epidemic

I got a flow that cause cancers

Better call up the paramedics

And it'll complicate blood circulation in diabetics

A lot of hateful niggas try to put my pockets on diuretics

But NAHH we don't allow them things

You and your mans can get it as you complicate the flow

To full drive when I feed my pushers then

Spit a dart like natives livin' in bushes



I got bass (coke)

Every line is (dope)

The type of shit that make 'em feign and had 'em thirsty to (smoke)

I got a funky fresh (car)

And a funky fresh (broad)

I'm a funky fresh (star)

And I'm up to (par)

You see the trunk got bass

Yeah the pots got bass

All the niggas on the block they be dealin' that bass

You see the trunk got bass

I flood the hood with the bass

I'm bringin' the sprinklers out

Even when there's a drought

I got bass

I got bass

I got bass

I got bass

RUFUS WAINWRIGHT LYRICS - Grey Gardens

"Grey Gardens"



Honey I'm a roller concrete clover

Tadzio, Tadzio



Arm wrestle your mother

Simply over

Tadzio, over you



But beware my heart can be a pin

A sharp silver dragonfly

Trying to get my mansions green

After I've Grey Gardens seen



In between tonight and my tomorrows

Tadzio where have you been

In between tonight I know it's Tadzio

Tadzio don't you fight



Honey can you hear me

In between been dragging a dragonfly

Trying to get my mansions green

After I've Grey Gardens seen



Honey won't you hold me tight

Get me through Grey Gardens tonight



Tadzio, Tadzio

Tadzio, Tadzio



Trying to get my mansions green

After I've Grey Gardens seen

Honey won't you hold me tight

Get me through Grey Gardens tonight



Tadzio, Tadzio

Tadzio, Tadzio

JOHN MAYER LYRICS - Heartbreak Warfare

"Heartbreak Warfare"



Lightning strikes

Inside, my chest to keep me up at night

Dream of ways

To make you understand my pain



Clouds of sulfur in the air

Bombs are falling everywhere

It's heartbreak warfare

Once you want it to begin,

No one really every wins

In heartbreak warfare



If you want more love,

why don't you say so?

If you want more love,

why don't you say so?



Drop his name

Push it in and twist the knife again

Watch my face

As I pretend to feel no pain



Clouds of sulfur in the air

Bombs are falling everywhere

It's heartbreak warfare

Once you want it to begin,

No one really ever wins

In heartbreak warfare.



If you want more love,

why don't you say so?

If you want more love,

why don't you say so?



Just say so...



How come the only way to know how high you get me

is to see how far I fall

God only knows how much I'd love you if you let me

but I can't break free at all.



It's a heartbreak...



I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight

Let's just fix this whole thing now

I swear to God we're gonna get it right

If you lay your weapon down

Red wine and ambien

You're talking shit again, it's heartbreak warfare

Good to know it's all a game

Disappointment has a name, it's heartbreak warfare.
