E-life I Wonder Why
Why life's never the story you wish
Why life don't give you more than you give
You can't deny you have to carry on
Feel so strong, I keep holding on
We crawlin' them days like it was only yesterday
Stargates, wonderin'; will I be frontpage?
Will I live to see my grandkids or die at young age
Will I be hot like the sun and find a spot in the shade
I kept the fade, I knew there would be days like this
I've never doubt my own ability, brother you wish
From this biss, the rhymin' defeat will never clash
Cause music was my first love and it'll be my last
Even as a kid when I couldn't even write
I would make up some songs and use my thumb for a mic
Pretend I was a god, I was the star of the show
But moms came in my room so it was time for me to go
I had a ruff time growin' up with my moms
I don't care for my pops 'cause we never had a one
He's far gone, I'm stronger because of you
Stronger than you, I pay dues, I win, you lose
I wonder why ..
Why life's never the story you wish
Why life don't give you more than you give
You can't deny you have to carry on
Feel so strong, I keep holding on
You'll remember me, when my name still was Defri
When we all had to get down in the place to be
When we had this little crew called ESP/DSP/the SP
Before you went to see the doctor with Kool Mo Dee
It was all lune in me, behind mic-standin'
Never stayed dancin', basketball sneakers with tight
pants and
No doubt, he was movin' the crowd, had 'nuff styles
Committed, we hit the spotlight, we turn the party out
It wasn't all good back then, we did a little something
A little hustlin', a little snowcut 'n cops fronting
But rap took me outta there,
I look far about I see gun in my pears they outta here
I wonder why
Why life's never the story you wish
Why life don't give you more than you give
You can't deny you have to carry on
Feel so strong, I keep holding on
