Lost Boyz › Lyrics › Why

"Everything that I have done this season
Has been turned into something negative", Iverson said
"People in the media have written some negative things
About me and now that is the big issue
With this year's 'Rookie of the Year' Award"

This just in the rap group, Lost Boyz, spelled L O S T B O Y Z
Are being charged with inciting several riots during
Their performances, they are best known for sipping Hennessey
And twisting trees backstage, this group is linked

To the South Jamaica Queens Lost Boyz
They are considered New York's third largest gang
Sources say that government officials have big problems
With the way the group lives

Why they won't let us do no shows in New York?
Why they won't even let us f*****' talk?
Why they say Lost Boyz be a gang?
Why nah' man kid we just do our thang?

Why, why we always in the cut sometimes?
Why, why we roll and sleep on bunks sometimes?
Why, why I be askin' myself that?
Why, why I turn my cat to the bat?

Why, why I freestyle and write?
Why, what dumb sharks that fight?
Why, why God take me to Queensbridge?
Why, why the f*** you did what you did?

Why I see be wild gettin' down?
Why O O E J drama's in town?
Why I represent my crew?
Why speak nice Freaky Tah pretty new?

Why I represent South Jamaica, what?
Why me and my team, we'll get in your gut?
Why stay trees with fam all day?
Why write my name in the complex hallway?

Why got my man's spot where we be chillin' at?
Why throw your L's in the skies if you feelin' that?
Why my man got me in the right L?
Why, why lost? Why, why lost?

Hey yo, I'm shoppin' nice and pretty Lou
Why, why you forgot the fox crew?
Why, why you forgot Lillith Boulevard?
Why, why you forgot my nigga's that's hard?

Why, why you forgot the playas, the pimps?
Why, why you forgot my nine the fix?
Why, what why you forgot the whole world?
Why f*** that little man my, my girl?

Why, why you forgot J Ball?
Why Luther Siqual Sean and more?
Why, why you forgot Troy too?
Why forget Kind and B while shoe?

Why, why, why my niggas drugged in drama?
Why, ay yo, why I love my mama?
Why, why ay yo, why that broad there shoot us?
Why because she had my money?

Why laugh thinkin' it's funny?
Why took my daughter and all of my money from?
Why my safe and yo now I have nothin'?
Why and I'm broke and I'm f***** up see?

Why, ay yo, that fool she tried to stick up me?
Why I'm sticky Freaky Tah?
Why and niggas ask me why?
Why I be yellin' so much?

Why on this track I gets still man?
Why shortys, they wanna mess around man?
Why ay yo, get up and shake that doo-doo round man?
Why ay yo, Tah I like the way you sound man?

Why because the L B's in your area?
Why ay yo, I'm rollin' I ain't scared of ya?
Why ay yo, why were you in Daria?
Why to get up in our f*****' area?

Why this is how I do in New York?
Why, why from '97 there's no time to talk?
Why niggas, niggas screw faces and all that?
Why this is how we do it goin' playin' war black?

Why on the courts we gets down man?
Why niggas don't wanna mess around man?
Why like the way I sound man?
Why L Bs we keep it 'til you're down?
Why, why, why?
