[Verse 1]
My [G]mind grinds the sands of time
Deaf, dumb and blind,
I blow your mind with lines divine
Now prior to my last event
[D]I medita[G]ted,
graduated from the floss for lent
Stopped rhyming for the ice,
the twenties, that whip
Started rhyming for got [F]the love,
my god, and my [G]gift
Immaculate
I'm December 25th, 26th,
[F]I'm [G]kwanzaa, Kunjufu Kuwanzaa
I meander through the
stanzas for answers
A rhyme chancellor
You die by the gun, now add it up dun
What's [D]the sum [G]360[F]
We [G]hot like Mojave
Lyrically, we the trinity
That's Us3, Reg Wyns, L- I- B
Lo's flows are strong [D]prose
[Dm]tight as y[F]our corn rows[G][F]
[D]Why not[G]?[F][G][F]

[Verse 2]
[G][F][G]
Why not unlock mine eyes to see the
glory like Denzel or Dr.
King
Freedom will never ring no matter
how we sing if the liberty
Bell [F]is broke
Why not [D]revolt if [G]you can't
cope [F]with the feigned [G]truth
On this tight rope I avoid
the noose as a black male youth
I produce high flyings act over the wack
I'm overproof
Few [F]despise me
Why not re[D]cognise me
[G]I'm jamming for the culture like
Stevie and Bill Cosby
I wonder
We defensive when we say
the kids wild out
We're teaching [F]them,
so [G]we should take the time out, to
Use the vizniz and get the red [D]out
In [G]an instant, conference to brew out
Downsize
Foldgers thoughts crystallised
I open third eyes, free jail cells
[F]Spreadsheets, I excel
Duracell, we ener[D]gise
I pass [G]right through your lies
Keep [F]my eyes on [G]the prize
[D]Why not[G]?[F][G]
[F][D]

[Verse 3]
[G][F][G]
I'm a rhyme antagonist
[F]I'm writing my [G]story
and I'm the protagonist
If not for the beat I might be an evan[F]gelist
Still free [Dm]the masses
[G]Teachers teach [F]classes
[G]Aristocracy getting put right on
[F]their asses by the prolet[G]ariat
I chide mc's out of their pride,
they're fictitious
Whether stage, screen,
or jazz [F]shit you're still [D]with us
[G]I sta[F]y young bla[G]ck
and prodigious
The things I've seen'll make
a Christian sacrilegious
I'm indigenous as the Cherokee
I'm hip- hop,
you're a hip- hop hy[D]pocrisy[G]
[F]Pause [G]for the cause
We brawl and break down
laws
Oxcutta to glass jaws
To eat we break laws
Eliminate the wars for I'm reppin
for the [D]cause
[G]Eliminate [F]the wars, see I'm reppin for the [G]cause
[F][D][G][F][G]

[D]Why not[G]?[F][G]
