WHY

Lyrics

Too many faces, too many faces, too many faces
 Yeah, what's your definition of success? (Ayy)
 I don't trust the thoughts that come inside my head (Woo)
 I don't trust this thing that beats inside my chest
 Who I am and who I wanna be cannot connect, why?
 Don't think I deserve it? You get no respect (Woo)
 I just made a couple mil', still not impressed
 "Let You Down" goes triple platinum, yeah, okay, okay, I guess (Ayy)
 Smile for a moment then these questions startin' to fill my head, not again!
 I push away the people that I love the most; why? (Woo)
 I don't want no one to know I'm vulnerable; why? (Woo)
 That makes me feel weak and so uncomfortable; why? (Ayy)
 Stop askin' me questions, I just wanna feel alive
 Until I die—this isn't Nate's flow (Woo)
 Just let me rhyme; I'm in disguise
 I'm a busy person, got no time for lies; one of a kind
 They don't see it; I pull out they eyes; I'm on the rise!
 I've been doin' this for most my life with no advice (Woo)
 Take my chances, I just roll the dice, do what I like
 As a kid, I was afraid of heights, put that aside
 Now I'm here and they look so surprised, well so am I, woo
 They don't invite me to the parties, but I still arrive
 Kick down the door and then I go inside
 Give off that "I do not belong here" vibe
 Then take the keys right off the counter, let's go for a ride
 Why do y'all look mortified? (Ayy)
 I keep to myself, they think I'm sorta shy, organized
 "Let You Down's" the only song you've heard of? Well then you're behind (Woo)
 Story time; wish that I could think like Big Sean does, but I just can't decide (Aah!)
 If I should stick my knife inside of Pennywise
 I, I don't care what anybody else thinks; lies (Haha)
 I do not need nobody to help me; lies
 I kinda feel guilty 'cause I'm wealthy; why?
 I don't understand, it's got me questionin' like
 "Why? Just tell me why?" not back to this flow
 Inside I feel divided
 Back when I ain't had a dime, but had the drive
 Back before I ever signed, I questioned life, like, "Who am I, man?" Woo
 Nothin' to me's ever good enough
 I could be workin' for 24 hours a day and think I never did enough
 My life is a movie, but there ain't no tellin' what you're gonna see in my cinema (No)
 I wanna be great, but I get in the way of myself and I think about everything that I could never be
 Why do I do it though? Ayy, yeah
 Why you always lookin' aggravated?
 Not a choice, you know I had to make it
 When they talk about the greatest, they gon' probably never put us in the conversation
 Like somethin', then I gotta take it
 Write somethin', then I might erase it
 I love it, then I really hate it
 What's the problem, Nathan? I don't know!
 I know I like to preach to always be yourself (Yeah)
 But my emotions make me feel like I am someone else
 Me and pride had made a pact that we don't need no help
 Which feels like I'm at war inside myself, but I forgot the shells
 I hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell
 A lot of people know me, but not a lot know me well
 Hold my issues up for all to see, like show and tell
 A lot of people know me, but they don't know me well
 Too many faces, too many faces, too many faces
