Why Go - Empire Cast/Brez

Written by：Calesha Murray/Carlton Mays/Jr.

It's a cold world put that on ice

The devil like to come out and play at night

I try live my life right do that twice

But when it all went wrong I knew you weren't right

Streets labeled you a cold killer had you caged up with 'em gorillas

Blood money from a d**e dealer

Tell me how the hell 'post to deal withcha

God bless your soul cause you're gone now

All this forgiven cause I'm grown now

Gotta make it out here on my own now

I put the pin up you put the gun down

Every word spoken never went in vain

Speakin' to the world that take away my pain

They say you live once when you go it's a shame

I guess that I'm stayin' insane

Should've never left me oh why

Tell me why you had to leave me oh why

I had to go I had to go

Should've never left me oh why

Tell me why you had to leave me oh why

I had to go I had to go

Tryin' to keep the grip on my sanity right

They don't really know the cost for this life

The hurt the hunger the time neva right

Thots are killin' everythin' in plain sight

Your word is your bond if I can say word to my mom

You know what I'm on

You was my world never did wrong in my eyes

Forever your girl crazy what you made me

And indirectly you saved me

From a lil' girl to a lady

Still a hustler like you raised me

God bless your soul cause you're gone now

All this forgiven cause I'm grown now

Gotta make it out here on my own now

I put the pin up you put the gun down

Every word spoken never went in vain

Speakin' to the world that take away my pain

They say you live once when you go it's a shame

I guess that I'm stayin' insane

Should've never left me oh why

Tell me why you had to leave me oh why

I had to go I had to go

Should've never left me oh why

Tell me why you had to leave me oh why

I had to go I had to go
