No ones thinkin bout our babies, everybodys actin shady.
-Bizzy Bone-Chorus-
And why... do we die? (Everybody want a piece of the pie)/ Tell me why... do we die? (No ones thinkin bout our babies)/ And why... do we die?/ Tell me why...do we die? (Everybody want a piece of the pie)/ Yea (Why do we die?) yea (And around and around we go)
-Bizzy Bone-
And we, pray on our knees and these are the precious things we bring to the world, don't cry/ Don't cha go askin "Why?" don't cha go by, and don't cha cry by my side/ Ghetto roll it, it'll blow you know your shoved around, fine/ Back in the days with Lil' Lay and all the Bone's we got fo scrappin' for pay, sometimes I miss when we was kids/ And now since '95, back when Eazy died of the A-I-D's or whatever disease and, what a tragic time/ Bone, Bone, Bone, I sho' hope you hear me and see me clearly and feel me/ If I could do it again, I wouldn't/ And the shit got me teary, remember Lake Eerie I told yall that I'd be there in a hurry/ And find what counts and around and around and around we go
-Bizzy Bone-Chorus-
Why... do we die? (Tell me why)/ And why... do we die do we die...?/ And why... do we die? (Tell me why) do we die? (You gotta take it easy)
And we pray on our knees, and we pray on our knees/ And we pray on our knees, and we pray on our knees/ And we pray on our knees, and we pray on our knees
-Bizzy Bone-
She don't love you, I can tell ya/ He don't love you, he would sell you out in a minute in a minute gotta bail you out, yea (Praise God)/ And to the weed heads before you get it life ain't easy (Life ain't easy)/ (Sometimes) Sometimes I just don't get it/ It's so cold, it's so cold, I just stay, I just stay, I just stay/ Don't cha feel me? Don't cha feel me? Tellin all my people if I never did it/ Remember the way you used to play? Now all...that I can say...(Damn, where we go wrong?) is around and around we go...
-Bizzy Bone-Chorus-
And why...do we die? (Tell me why)/ And around and around we go/ Tell me why...(Do we die...do we die?)/ And around and around we go, why...do we die? (Tell me why) and around and around we go/ Do we die?
-Bizzy Bone-Outro-
Now with death, everybody want a piece of the pie/ (Tell me why) People now a days are so shady, no ones thinkin about our babies (Tell me why)/ How many men here will soon cry? How many friends will you see die? How many prisoners that you know (It's crazy, tell me why)/ And now with death (Now with death)...
