day before that, his homeless uncle was cold outside A
week before, he seen the
cancer in his mother's eyes Two weeks before that, couldn't pay his rent 'cause he lost his job A
month before that, he lost the
custody of his daughter Six months before that, her mother said she won't see her father And this before he did a
year when them charges was brought up I
shook my head, turned around, then found a
hundred dollars [Hook Kendrick Lamar:] I

don't know why [Verse 2
Kendrick Lamar:] Yesterday, I
invaded privacy of a
home The
day before that, my partner had fronted me a
zone A
week before, I
had loaded bullets inside that chrome Two weeks before that, I
shot them bullets and he was gone A
month before that, I
cursed my mother then slammed the
door Six months before that, I
hit my woman, she hit the
floor I
stormed out, then seen a
black Honda Accord Them hollow tips missed me then hit that little boy [Hook Kendrick Lamar:] I

don't know why [Verse 3
Kendrick Lamar:] So today I
laid in my bed, stared at the
ceiling Closed my eyes, then asked myself how I
was feeling I
analyzed on how a
saint can play the
villain Is my life coincidental or just God willin'? I
came to grips, jumped up, looked out the
window See my nigga had that same little boy that didn't know Bullets is nameless, I
guess this was meant for Me to give them a
hundred dollars then trash my pistol [Hook 2
Kendrick Lamar:] Now I
know why He keep blessing me Now I
know why He keep blessing me Now I
know why He keep blessing me Now I
know why He keep blessing me Now I
know why, now I
know why, now I
know why [Bridge Kendrick Lamar and BJ the
Chicago Kid:] So I
can bless you So I
can bless you So I
can bless you [Verse 4
BJ the
Chicago Kid:] Lord help me Cause I
need You I
know this weed is burning And I'm on drink number two But it's all to soothe the
pain from this Cold, cold world Sometimes I
think it can help me But this buzz here is temporary So I'm talking to You This sick world will drive a
sane man crazy Dead birds dropping out the
sky, daughters having their fathers' babies And this the
news I
hear When my god kids, nieces, and nephews turn a
year I
wonder will it get better A
little cheddar will make it better But the
risk of fast cash Will make last year's Christmas gift be my last [Hook 3
BJ the
Chicago Kid:] But somehow You keep blessing me But somehow You keep blessing me But somehow You keep blessing me But somehow You keep blessing me But somehow, but somehow, but somehow [Verse 5
BJ the
Chicago Kid:] If I
just keep the
faith I
know You'll be right there Sometimes it may not seem that You are there But You're there I
feel You're there You're everywhere And I
thank You for Protecting me in these streets From danger seen and unseen I
never know What happened the
night I
wasn't there Something told me leave so I
left News the
next morning Three guys shot after the
club Awwhh, listening to that small voice Oh it saved my life
