Why Would I? - AK

Lately all I’m asked is Austin

Where the fucks that real shit?

That shit I fell in love with

When you spoke I used to feel it

But lately all you talk about’s

How you the fucking greatest

Dawg we get it, you been making moves

But why the fuck you changing?

Why would I wanna think back to all of the shit that went wrong?

Why would I wanna be thinking 'bout all of the shit that I lost?

Why would I wanna get deep, my wounds are soon to be scars

Right now I’m just covered in scabs, but you want me to pick 'em off

If I fuck around and I let loose then these mother fuckers gon' pray

If I fuck around and open old wounds watch all the skies turn gray

For a kid who barely even had food there was so much on my plate

Had a lot to prove with not a lot to lose only Lord knew I’d be straight

Honestly I hate talking 'bout my past

Even if it’s what got me here

I would bottle up everything I felt for so many years

Then it got severe

I would pray to never see another day

I’d pray to be the one Lord’ll take

Just to get the fuck away from everything

'Cause I was dying slow and there was no escape

Nobody could ever relate to my state of mind

'Cause ain’t nobody understood where I came from

Always knew I was different

I knew nobody would get it

But mother fuckers was treating me like I’m plain dumb

I never had a way to cope and all I needed was some hope

I was drowning no one threw me a rope

And was part of a broken family that was broke

Why would I wanna think back to all of the shit that went wrong?

Why would I wanna be thinking 'bout all of the shit that I lost?

Why would I wanna get deep, my wounds are soon to be scars

Right now I’m just covered in scabs, but you want me to pick 'em off

If I fuck around and I let loose then these mother fuckers gon' pray

If I fuck around and open old wounds watch all the skies turn gray

For a kid who barely even had food there was so much on my plate

Had a lot to prove with not a lot to lose only Lord knew I’d be straight

Spent my whole life trying to escape the bad

But they all trying to bring it back to me

There’s got to be a reason maybe I just need to think

Why they keeping asking me?

I understand people go through the worst things

And when I show 'em I relate then the verse speaks

Way louder but my past was the worst me

But no one seems to give a fuck that it hurts me

Imagining sitting thinking all the time

'Bout the worst times of your entire life

That state of mind that you had then

You have to channel back to sit down and write

That’s the side no one sees shit don’t come for free

I know but I pay the price

'Cause in the end we’ll be better off and pasts gone

But I live it twice

Why would I wanna think back to all of the shit that went wrong?

Why would I wanna be thinking 'bout all of the shit that I lost?

Why would I wanna get deep, my wounds are soon to be scars

Right now I’m just covered in scabs, but you want me to pick 'em off

If I fuck around and I let loose then these mother fuckers gon' pray

If I fuck around and open old wounds watch all the skies turn gray

For a kid who barely even had food there was so much on my plate

Had a lot to prove with not a lot to lose only Lord knew I’d be straight (yeah)
