Lyrics
Death, is the hardest fact of life to accept
And with time, it never gets easier
As you watch loved ones fade away before our own eyes
We ask questions in the hope to receive answers of comfort
'Cause it affect us all
Tell me why do we die? (Yeah)
Why? (That's right)
Why?
Tell me why do we die? (Why?)
Why? (Why do we die?)
We die?
Another funeral service we all mourn from different churches
Confused faces and what's worse it's a young person
Open coffin the last goobyes with tears jerking
Hopes murdered 'cause he's passed and it's still hurting
Mama's burden with plenty questions and blank answers
These innocent souls eroding off our own campus
And I swear it's like a curse
When one dies I can't help realise it all occurs around similar times
Hearts torn and we all mourn 'til the next dawn
Silence crawls up on our lives and we all pause
Reminiscing we shedding tears as we share thoughts
Hoping you make it through Heavens doors and of course
The memories always remain, never expire
Angelic vocals and it's soulful when I hear the choir
We all cry when death arises and claims lives
Begging God for answers as to why, must we die
Why must we die? (Why?)
Must we die?
Must we die? (I don't know why)
Why must we die?
Must we die? (Help me to understand)
Must we die?
And brothers are drinking they reminising getting drunk
Becoming wild
Expelling their anger through alcohol with empty smiles
Long aisles of teary eyes broken souls arrive
Entire congregation wearing black feeling exiled
First cousins and close kin keep encouraging
A poor widow with two daughters 'bout to bury him
Shattered dreams of ever seeing either seeds graduate with a degree that he believed
They would achieve
The hurting escalates as dawn slowly approaches
Overtaken by the all pain as it overdoses
Silent prayers and little breaths hoping when it's over
I might get to see him with Jehova, so please soldier
A busy kitchen full of women and brothers assisting
And long distant cousins greivingly greeting with kisses
But it's a shame that it takes to lose a life before our minds decide to even reunite
When we die
Why must we die? (I can't explain it)
Must we die?
Must we die? (It's just so difficult for me)
Why must we die?
Must we die? (It hurts so bad)
Must we die?
The pain gets worse seeing you in a hearse
It searches me for comfort slowly but it doesn't work
My blood shot eyes they blink back tears it's stinging
Crowded streets and people freeze while the choir's singing
Eventually we all be buried in that cemetary
Peaceful sleeps from these streets when we all perish
The cries get heavy a heart has to let it go
When you're witnessing those you hold close buried below
You never know who's gon' be next it's making me stress
Will I be forgotten? I wonder how much time's left?
I can't rest I'll keep investing 'til I'm destined to surrender to death
Give my respect before my last breath
Nevertheless you better rest I'll let you cruise home
But I'll return for conversations at your tomb stone
It feels cold when you're alone tryna go through these ebony nights
I look up at the sky and ask why must we die?
Why must we die? (Everyone who's lost someone close to 'em)
Must we die? (Friend)
Must we die? (Family member, I wanna share this one with you)
Why must we die? (Rest in peace)
Must we die? (All our fallen angels)
Must we die? (All our comrads)
