Defy

Sense and Common

I just wanna know why...

Why it seems so hard to find

The woman to give you peace of mind

A woman to hold your hand through all your trials.

And birth your burdens into a new child.

I just wanna know.

Why?

No matter how hard I try,

Or how many the blood spilling from my eyes.

You just can't see you and you can't see I

Die.

A million times, between your lies and your defiance.

You and me ARE self reliance

But

We've reaped the seeds of non compliance

While pretending we don't know what's plain and

obvious.
