Why oh why is it so hard to say goodbye my lord

Oh tell me is it a stairway to heaven I can’t afford?

Racin' in this race you might have a crash collision

While your babies find their way to make their own decisions

Ain’t nobody tell me nothin' 'bout hustlin' strugglin' and gamblin'

And runnin' through the maze in Detroit while they’re scribble scramblin'

(chours X1.2)

(T.N.T???)

Now one, you thought I was gone

Thought I was lost in the storm

But uh, I can never seem let go of this game

Gotta keep rollin' on

Gotta keep holdin' on, to my handles

Stay strong, through the scandles

You can neva do, what you plan to do, when niggas try to undahand you

Why oh why is it so hard to say peace, to my pain

I got the soul of the beast, in my veins

I guess I’ll never change

All these games people play, I pay no mind

No evidence, no crime

Can’t let go, of this wicked rhyme

(T.N.T???)

Why oh why is it hard to say goodbye?

Who do doves cry?

Why must I stay high?

In my world, niggas get wet, like jerry curls

Mothers cry

Funeral processions ride by

Formaldehyde keeps my mind, in the sky

I believe, I believe I can fly

But uh, why is it so hard to say goodbye?

Goodbye

(song fades)
