[Intro – Dax]
Yeah…
I’m still a believer, but I’m not blind.
I see the mess, I see the cracks,
I just wanna know why, God.
Why life gotta feel like this?
[Verse 1 – Dax]
Why do people hate more than they love?
Why’s peace always outweighed by blood?
Why’s greed got the throne and a crown,
While the poor can’t even get a crumb or a cup?
Why’s truth gotta hide while the lies go viral?
Why’s the youth read memes more than they read the Bible?
Why’s a man work forty years for a check,
Then die before he spends a dollar of survival?
Why do saints get cancer at thirty,
While the wicked live old, rich, and sturdy?
Why’s a kid born into war-torn dirt,
While a rich kid’s biggest problem’s a jersey?
Why’s heaven sound quiet when I’m on my knees?
Why do prayers ricochet like bullets through trees?
Why’s the world so split like a puzzle that’s missing
The one damn piece that we need for peace?
[Chorus – Dax]
Why, God?
I’m tryna understand this mess.
If there’s a plan, it’s feeling more like a test.
I’m not doubting your existence, I’m just questioning the rules,
‘Cause it’s hard to see the purpose when the innocent lose.
[Verse 2 – Eminem]
Why’s the pain free but the cure cost rent?
Why’s the truth locked up when the lie’s exempt?
Why’s the world built like a boardroom deal
Where the rich get the meal and the poor get crumbs?
Why’s addiction the cheapest thrill?
Why’s self-worth taxed while the fake get deals?
Why’s the light at the end of the tunnel
Look more like an oncoming train than a miracle?
Why’s fame more worshiped than kindness?
Why’s love treated like a side quest?
Why’s the system rigged from the blueprint up,
And we still act shocked when it turns unjust?
Why’s the best art born in pain?
Why’s peace so brief it can’t be sustained?
Why’s joy always seem like a guest in my house,
While stress moved in and claimed my name?
[Chorus – Eminem + Dax]
Why, God? (Why?)
We’re just trying to learn the plan.
Why’s it feel like every answer’s locked in a man?
We ain’t asking for the keys to your whole damn gate,
Just a sign that there’s more than what bleeds in hate.
[Bridge – Dax]
Tell me why the ones who heal end up in debt,
While the ones who kill fly private jets.
Tell me why history haunts the present,
Like we’re cursed with the loops we ain’t broke yet.
Tell me why when I try to do right,
It’s like wrestling the weight of the sky.
Tell me why every lesson in life
Shows up just a moment too late to apply.
[Verse 3 – Eminem]
Why’s the news feed fear like candy?
Why’s the truth treated like it’s contraband-y?
Why’s history just a weapon for power,
And the winner’s pen bleeds what they fancy?
Why’s there love in war and war in love?
Why’s “forever” a word we use ‘til the person we said it to’s dead to us?
Why’s every saint got shadows they hide?
Why’s every villain got fans worldwide?
Why’s the same damn cycle on a century loop
Like the DJ’s scared to just change the vibe?
Why’s the rain
