lyrics
ASK WHY / 自問
"Why not?" I'm tempted to ask "why God?"
I'm just trying to make my mark, but you test me on my job. Sometimes I question
"Why not?" I'm tempted to ask "why God?"
I'm just trying to make my mark, but you test me on my job. Sometimes I question
I walk through the valley of the kings in the shadows I see death right there lurking.
And mama did her best to prepare for these things but she couldn't guess the ways this life might hurt me.
'Cause I'm not perfect, this ride's a circus
I'm just a working work in progress
I know what I'm worth and I know I deserve, sometimes you get burned just for being honest.
But I keep climbing, keep your eyes to the sky there's a prize even when you know the sun's not shining.
Some tips for rising, you only take flight if you hit the path right and leave them weights behind ya.
But we get sidetracked and we get blinded, sometimes we fall first cause we need reminders.
There's no rewinding, the Great Work don't get recognized until we go and realize it...
Or ask" why not?", I'm tempted to ask "why God"
