Ask Why Lyrics by YL (Rap)

OPEN 24

2017

[YL]
It's OPEN 24
Roper Williams on the beat, young Y with the rhymes
It's that time

[Verse 1: YL]
We still shinin' like medallions
I order beef dumplings with the scallions
I stay amongst family like Italians
Yo hol' up, hol' up
Fuck what they talkin' I do this thang often
I smoke a spliff in the street, that's jaywalkin'
I stay coughin', the energy absorbin'
Keeps pourin' I came bustin' through the door and you niggas snorin'
I rip the mic when it's recordin' it seems foreign
I form a beat four in the mornin'
It's so stunnin', I run this shit like yo it's nothin'
The snare's drummin', hummin' the tune, gettin' blunted

[Hook: YL echoes throughout] x4
Ask why (ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why)

[Verse 2: YL]
It's too close, the streets darker than my new bowl
The kid's depressed, yes the weather played a huge role
I need some new clothes
Hoes and business please
To mom I'm still a baby
Bitches know I'm still a man
I'm makin' dinner plans
At Joe's Shanghai, my Timbs walk on muddy water still remain fly
How could you complain, say I'm not the same guy
Blaze best, don't invest until you really certain
Shorty gave away my pussy had me really hurtin'
I pulled the curtains and what I seen was real disturbin'
You not hip hop with diamonds on your wristwatch
You never made a hit stop, you cop vinyl I went urban
I keep the weed wrapped like a turban
React when I'm sippin' on the Jack or the bourbon
Come on stage with a purpose
I'm jumping to conclusions, stop the J to the Erving

[Hook: YL echoes throughout]x4
Ask why (ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why, ask why)
