Thats Why I Cry by MC Tempo Lyrics
Thats Why I Cry
VERSE 1
Just wanted to be honest... but being popular is what it costed…
Mind side tracked by the tensest nonsense...
Hearts darkened by Netflix content, so I'm despondent
Heart bonded to the concept
Social medias devious feeds, screaming screens
Conceited depleted dreams
Secrets kept in deleted scenes
Parents give me what I want not what I need
Exams result in the meanest deeds, thats how it happen
Apparently I'm entitled to what I want but I’m flagging
And it costs… when it doesn't happen I get anxious
Comparisons trapped me in an unpredictable pattern
Rage in the chamber of my soul so I…
Hit the brain blower… with a flame thrower
Keeping steel that I hope I never have to take hold of
Another victim honoured in a shame culture
Feeling abandoned… parents don't understand it
Dads absent… or when he's there he's angered
It's all just a bit random, preached to by a pop anthem
Calling out to God… before it happens
CHORUS
Why iy iy iy iy…..
Why I cry inside
Grey skies… hide the sunshine
Lord help me see, see the light
VERSE 2
Hearts so broken, soul swollen, phone stolen
Thinking getting stoned will help cope… but it don’t and
Their older... so I can't know them
Spinning in a wa wa wirl wind of emotion
I don't even have the same pair of trainers
Told not to talk to strangers, incase they save us
Friends betray us, trains delay us, police detain us
The Church is the only safe place to help save us!
Seduced and sucker punched by a whole team
It wasn't even an option… till they told me
Trust issues are birthed in my heart… and its sooo deep
No wonder so many grow old and lonely!
Thoughts queuing up by the stack to talk to me about that
But I’m awkward and find it hard to chat… its not as bad
As the man that sleeps outside the flats, rucksack on tarmack
I saw some drunk man steal his sleeping bag!
They say there was a day when we didn’t need phones to talk
Nowadays its all changed, please help us Lord…
Since the 2nd world war… the 3rd is on the shore
Will we live to see world war 4… I’m not sure
CHORUS
Why iy iy iy iy…..
Why I cry inside
Grey skies… hide the sunshine
Lord help me see, see the light
VERSE 3
Rhymes brew in time to a heart pounding beat
Struggling to express how it be rhetorical anarchy
Conserving liberal labour democratically
Till political tragedy devours me… actually
Sins... of omissions... and commissions...
Another victim… seduced by villains
They forced me to make stupid dissuasions
Now I'm living with the consequences deep with in
They suggested It was my intention, I didn't want to offend them
So I pretended… because schools confuse genders
The media ventures left my mind molested - ‘sentenced’
I guess thats why my friends life ended
Digital demons on screen hypnotise my drunken mum
Distorted data dictates whats going on ‘phenomenon’
Carling, curry and a popadom
They tell me what to feel, what to think n what to want
Fake news… school tells me stuff that ain't true
Evil solutions evolution to a great truth, make you...
Doubt the creator who made you… till He takes you
CHORUS
Why iy iy iy iy…..
Why I cry inside
Grey skies… hide the sunshine
Lord help me see, see the light
Why iy iy iy iy…..
Why I cry inside
Grey skies… hide the sunshine
Lord help me see, see the light
