Why???
Why do I feel so happy,
Why do I feel so mad,
Why do I feel so cold
and why do I seem so sad
Determined I am, to succeed in life
taking that plunge and cutting that knife
Never knowing, what lies ahead
Never knowing if I'll make it to bed
My life could end anytime soon
It could be tomorrow or today,
morning, daylight or noon
I ask myself these questions, and wonder what's the answer
not knowing is what scares me most, imagining what could be
In time I'll know, In time I'll see
what lies ahead, In store for me
I'll just settle down and take a rest, and always try my very best
Why is life so boring, why is it so lame
can't give me any answers, tell me who's to blame
don't tell me you don't know, don't tell me I'll find out later
don't tell me to ask another, I'll ask my father, my lord, my savior
Why is it I feel so lifeless, why do I feel so weak
why is it we ask so many questions and hardly ever find the answers
One day I'll know in time, One day I'll see the light
day by day, week by month, month by year, year by season
everything that 's happened to us, has happened for a reason
Why do we continue to suffer, suffer and suffer alone
some of us have no family, and some of us have no home
but those who follow God and never give up faith,
will always have a place in life and He will make their way.
