Illfonics - Why It Gotta Be Like Dis (Mama) lyrics

[Hook]: Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy [Verse One]: Can't even eat right Street life, ma don't even sleep nights Thinkin' 'bout your tender loving care roamin' these street lights He might, lose his f**in' mind is what the people think Keep a drank, drowning in my sorrows for the reason ain't Enough time in this song to tell you how much I miss you Tears falling at every wall that carries your picture I remember them days, begging you please to stop Your little son needed love but you needed a rock Damn But you made sure there was meals on the table for us Can't even describe how I drew strength from your faith and glory A story you told me that made me think If you believe you can achieve, ain't no such thang as can't [Hook]: Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy [Verse Two]: Geraldine Carrie Rivers it's been scary Living without your presence but I know you up in Heaven Smiling down on your child still chasing his dream But I can't kiss your beautiful face and it's making me scream The situation that I'm going through is making me tougher Sometimes I bow and ask the lord why is he making me suffer? Love ya Like no other, I look up at the clouds Hoping that you hear me clearly cause I'm saying it loud How Can I be a better man and make the right decisions? I try so hard to be in charge of this life I'm livin' I'm lonely, crying to myself sitting in the dark One thing I promise is you'll always be within my heart [Hook]: Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy [Verse Three]: Colder as the day goes Remember playing with Legos Watching you in the kitchen cookin' chicken and potatoes Ain't no, comparison to compa**ion and character That you instilled in me, filled with things, helping me carry the Load on my back, a book bag full of pain and grief Almost three years since you've been gone, I'm still in disbelief I miss the sweat reflections when you were stressing Told me to smile, it'll get better, we'll receive a blessing A lesson, to the wise, value your mother's every breath Cause if she goes, you ain't got 'nother left A lesson, value your mother's every breath Cause if she goes, you ain't got 'nother left [Hook]: Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy Why it gotta be like this? Why it gotta be like this? I lost my baby and it's gonna drive me crazy
