Why?
Dear Mama,
Why when I do you right, you do me wrong?
Why when I write the lyrics, you sing the song?
Why when I create the path, you hide the light?
Why when I provide the eyes, you loose the sight?
Why when I bring the rain, you bring the rust?
Why when I have faith, you mention lust?
Why when I raise the sun, you find the shade?
Why when I just show up, you walk away?
Why is what I ask and you've yet to answer.
