Jada Redmond - Why? Lyrics
Official




Why my father had to live this way
Why his father lived the same way
Will my brother come home today
I'm trying to figure out why
I gotta know why
Trying to figure it out
I can't even live in peace
Coming in my home off of what you think
Sometimes you need to let things be
It's hard to live my life
I gotta know why
Trying to figure it out
All of a sudden I can't breathe
While you're holding me down with your knee
Let's do better with these racist police
I can't live my life
I gotta know why
Trying to figure it out
Trying to take a little jog in peace
While these people are harassing me
Why can't I live my life and be free
I can't even live my life
I want to live my life
Trying to figure it out
Will my family ever be okay
It our skin color and we can't change
When will all this hatred go away
I can't even live my life
I want to live my life
Trying to figure it out
I can't even walk down the street
While holding a bag of a candy
Without people thinking badly of me
I just want to live my life
I gotta know why
Trying to figure it out
Why do they kill people just like me
In a land where we're supposed to be free
Being black is getting scary
I just want to live my live
Just let me live my life
Gotta figure it out
Why
Keep Asking Why
Oh Why
Why
I don't want to die
I'm trying to figure it out
Why
I'm Black and I don't want to die
Please let me live my life
I'm Black and I don't want to die
I'm trying to figure it out
