Why? (or The Lion's Song)
by Alicia
This world just takes its shots at me
They don't know I got you with me
Don't need no drugs to set me free
I prefer to save my liberty
Fight
(prefer to save my liberty)
Frown
(prefer to.....)
the world just lost a girl like me
far away from all that I would see
don't know what lies there for me
it's not the type of tale for me
never in a million years
could I wipe away all my tears
I could run but I could not hide
And here's the reason why:
So you see I've always hated me
But I see no cloud to cover me
You and I
You and I
will fight!
Do you see I found the fire in me
Now I've got the nerve to carry me
I see ice and I see pain
Then I try all over again
Strange there's no reason why
I haven't tried to die
Look for hope
But I see fie
Wait there is a reason why...
never in a million years
could I wipe away all my tears
I could run but I could not hide
And here's the reason why:
I still see me.
Do you see I found the fire in me
Now I've got the nerve to carry me
Now I see the reason why
And
I
will
never
die.
