[Chorus]
So why don't we cry when we see people dying?
Not a tear that act like I'm not even trying
There's so much more to this temporary life
One day yall gon' understand and say why, why, why

[Verse 1]
Good morning preacher
Man, I'm starving, what you recommend?
I, I need somebody to set me off right now
How dare you call me friend but never make me understand
If I can find the light it won't be hard to find the ground

[Chorus]
So why don't we cry when we see people dying?
Not a tear that act like I'm not even trying
There's so much more to this temporary life
One day yall gonna understand and say why, why, why

[Verse 2]
Well just the other week I'm flippin' through on my TV
Now on channel seven at seven it's on the news, yeah
A father gave his life to save his baby girl and wife
Every poor old man, oh man he didn't have a clue

[Chorus]
So why don't we cry when we see people dying?
Not a tear that act like I'm not even trying
There's so much more to this temporary life
One day yall gonna understand and say why, why, why
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, woah, oh
Oh, oh, woah, oh
Oh, oh, woah, oh
Oh, oh, woah, oh
One, two, three

[Chorus]
So why don't we cry when we see people dying?
Not a tear that act like I'm not even trying
There's so much more to this temporary life
One day you'll understand and say why, why, why

[Verse 3]
Yo, that's not the real me
I pray one day that the world will feel me
I pray I change before it kills me
This livin' in my life in filthy
I hope I never become so blind
Sold my Christ for a temporary high
Some of my friends ain't got the time
'Cause time got me, can't sacrifice things
They ruin my days
Can't go on without a change
Need your love, need your grace
Need your face to remind me I need to be, to beat the battle
I could've seen the scene I never thought I could've seen
I want to be the never seen even though it's all seen
All the sin is on me, everybody so obscene
Got me feeling still wondering why
