Why

Hey yeah ay Skrrrr (I love you) Skrrrr Hey yeah ay With my heart and my soul, I look in your eyes And the way that I feel girl, I can't deny With my gang and my dawgs, we live in the wild Girl I send a lotta texts but you don't reply Why? (Yahy) I just wonder why, I just wonder why And I travelled miles Damn girl you know I travelled miles I want you in my life, girl I want you in my life Even if it's for a little while I wanna see you smile, girl, I wanna see you smile See you smile (yah) For a while (yah) Can you try? (Yah) Hold you tight (yaahy) Ay, I said, "Hi" (ay) She said, "Who you is?" (ay) I said, "Remmy boy" (ooh) She said, "We don't fit" (ay) Girl, gimme a chance (ay) 'Cause of that, I'd burst up the ground (ay) I know I wasn't in school (ooh) She be like, "What do you do?" (yeah) "You ain't got no cash" (ay) "You look so so razz" (ay) "I am not your type" (ay) Damn, I almost cried (ay) I know you're hard to get and I'm not the one I know you would find me when I'm moving on Maybe 'cause I had no cash and I wasn't cool And you treated me so bad, I felt like a fool Why? (Yahy) I wish you was mine I wish you was mine I wish you was mine With my heart and my soul, I look in your eyes And the way that I feel man I can't deny All my gang, all my dawgs we live in the wild Girl I send a lotta texts but you don't reply Why? (Yahy) I just wonder why, I just wonder why And I travelled miles Damn girl you know I travelled miles I want you in my life, girl I want you in my life Even if it's for a little while I wanna see you smile, girl, I wanna see you smile See you smile (yah) For a while (yah) Can you try? (Yah) Hold you tight (yaahy) Damn girl you know I travelled miles I want you in my life, girl I want you in my life Even if it's for a little while I wanna see you smile, girl, I wanna see you smile See you smile (yah) For a while (yah) Can you try (yah) Hold you tight (yaahy)
