Why Oh Why

Somebody tell me why we landed here on the planet left
stranded
We suffer in this land then we leave it empty-handed
Experience a fraction of eternity then vanish
I never took advantage, I just took it all for granted
In my youth man, I used to smoke a quarter a night
Was bored of my life, ignoring all the glorious sights
I was lost getting caught up in all the hype
It took me ten years to get my priorities right
I'm up close and personal with my daily abuse
But all you fairies say spare me cause you're scared of
the truth
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
Why? Cause everybody needs to hide
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
Why? Cause everybody needs to hide
You know I really think it's funny
When you're flaunting all your automobiles
Cause I know that money's something that you oughta
conceal
The more you reveal the more we know it all isn't real
I bet you frauds keep talkin' till your coffin is
sealed
But it's ok, you behave in anyway that you want
Cause I can look you in the face and know you're fakin'
the funk
So take a second and brace yourself for taking this
punch
You may leave a little shaken when I break through your
front
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
Why? Cause everybody needs to hide
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
Why? Cause everybody needs to hide
I was just another white kid who suffered an identity
crisis
I ain't the only one I know that many are like this
So I did it how I did it never cared if they liked it
Kids got so excited they was ready to bite shit
Me getting on the mic is just like getting a license
To be hittin' all you critics that are stereotypin'
My only problem is I got plenty of vices
But I'll keep on writin' till I'm ready and ripe
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
Why? Cause everybody needs to hide
Why oh why must everyone be in disguise
You get nothing out of living lies
