The Pharcyde - Y? (be like that) (jay dee remix) lyrics

Always gotta be like that (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Tell me why (Be like that you just be like that) Always gotta be like that (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Always gotta be like that (Be like that you just be like that) Always gotta be like that (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) I wasn't sleepin' I was creepin' slidin', hidin' I would like the girl behind me roll up a bad time thinkin' Mentally sinkin' 'specially brinkin' Two decades and a half making a path for mine to follow The world is hollow, yet it's full of crap, prepared to gamble I give you half of chiseled pencil What's the come up, cried a ton of tears, drunk a ton of beers That's fun at first but learned in person fear throughout the years Kept my ears open, eyes scoping, mouth locked Don't rock the boat if you can't swim Nobody may not be there with the limb to limb This is the end, still I can't explain the fact Why the f*** s*** gotta be like that? Tell me why Be like that, you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that Know what, I said it Hear me clearin' over so severe and dreaded That they need to be beheaded, why? I'm readily, steadily stimulate and then mutilate And all sloppily, copied imitations Cause they irritatin' so I'm intimidatin' them Over the snare with simply a stare Bringin' them turbulent terror And they know this 'cause they can feel it He knew that it was mine Still the s**er tried to steal it So I had to reveal it, through provin' That I am a star machine and fly And by just blinkin' my eye in a flash I flush out the face, layin' low-key Trained eyes locate to focus on the phony Mister sometime-homey, why he act like that I thought he had my back, I thought he had our backs But it was him who I should've never trusted And not at least till he got his attitude adjusted Or mouth busted for acting all dusted But bust this now when I'm out I seek and thought out the whole scene For all sinister's types, sneak that scheme They come into my face I send them tightmen home When they're sufferin' From the double agent syndrome, why? Why it gotta be like that Tell me why Be like that you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that Tell me why Be like that you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that Sometimes this world means everything to me The inside is lovely to these eyes I see And sometimes in my mind all I wanna do is cry Holly off, seven of them drops from my eye Thugs drain out my skin 'cause I'm pissed from within I see a situation now and all I do is grin People think I'm high but I'm mentally travelin' Agin' in short times 'cause life's a unravelin' While I'm straddlin' more's up this f***in' mike I hate to be a pilot, crashin' in a flight People need to know about this thing called life 'Cause if you see the light then life's alright So can you dig it Be like that you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that Be like that you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that I jumped inside the jeep as I embark on my darkness Popped in my freestyle tapes Started reminiscing about my little homie Who was raised in Wyoming wanted to be famous So he came to Californey on the microphony Was super bad and what not But he was the kinda fella to follow paths that was hot He became too fascinated with that gang related flavor That he modificated rearranged his behavior He hooked up quick with the influential slang Gangsta-strow corn rolls the whole shabbang Braggin' and boastin', boastin' and braggin' How we 'posed to be hangin' with Baby Gees, I was baggin' But what you tryin' hooride up on the bandwagon Hopin' they'd hit him in the head but he steady saggin' Like he a hog creepin' through the smog Smokin' on some Indo sippin' on a cup of O-Dog Like most who come to this West Coast society Tried to be because they think it's fly to be a menace So what a relic way to end this, got rolled up When he was strolling on a Sunday after tennis N****s never listen, they gotta learn their lesson The hard way I'm guessin', guessin' BD as I hit the B and make a right on Weston Pops in my head the proverbial question, why? Be like that, you just be like that Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that Tell me why (Be like that, you just be like that) Always gotta be like that (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Tell me why (Be like that, you just be like that) (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Tell me why (Be like that, you just be like that) (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Tell me why (Be like that, you just be like that) Always gotta be like that (Baby, tell me why it's gotta be like that) Tell me why, it always gotta be like that Tell me why, it always gotta be like that Always gotta be like that Always gotta be like that Tell me why
