Thats why Lyrics by RETS

0

Intro
There are tough times, times when I have to remind myself why I still do this. Why I put in the time and the sacrifice. That's why..

Hook

I practice what I preach, that’s why
Got a younger brother looking up to me that’s why
For undying passion and the hunger in me that’s why
For a bigger pay check, shit I know but that’s why

Relate when you find it hard to sleep at night
When the money is a factor of a loved ones life
When I would sacrifice anything to make things right
I do it for my family that’s why

Verse

Listen, I just had a conversation with the god
He said that I'm doing great and I should keep my head up high
But lately I’ve been feelin low, and even if I tried I couldn't lie
It’s been hard seeing how these people slowly fall apart

Kids growing up smart as hell but with no dreams
All the sudden life seems harder than it’s been
Depression creeping in, others judging from a far
Forgotten how most beautiful things in life are felt through heart

Give my all to make you stronger
By your side, together darkness will get conquered
You never know when a single message or a call
Hug or a visit could make someone live longer

Hook

I practice what I preach, that’s why
Got a younger brother looking up to me that’s why
For undying passion and the hunger in me that’s why
For a bigger pay check, shit I know but that’s why

Relate when you find it hard to sleep at night
When the money is a factor of a loved ones life
When I would sacrifice anything to make things right
I do it for my family that’s why

Verse

Its been long since I wore my jewelry
If anything it made me enemies, speaking truthfully
Since I took it off I can tell who stayed true to me
Ain't hard to see, the more the money the more you liking me
Damn...

Start listening to lyrics only after death
Saying how we didn't notice what this man had to say
I ain't got no voice but I'm still speaking
I just I hope there's someone out there who can still hear me


How my dream feel
Should I sell my soul
On that dreamville, Im on that Cole

*bridge
There are tough times, times when I have to remind myself why I still do this. Why I put in the time and the sacrifice. That's why..

Hook

I practice what I preach, that’s why
Got a younger brother looking up to me that’s why
For undying passion and the hunger in me that’s why
For a bigger pay check, shit I know but that’s why

Relate when you find it hard to sleep at night
When the money is a factor of a loved ones life
When I would sacrifice anything to make things right
I do it for my family that’s why
