[Intro: Samples]
Because the sky is blue
Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
We reflect like the sky be blue, true
Whose blue skies will turn grey
It's okay though, 'cause from grey skies come blue
Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
We reflect like the sky be blue, true
Go back and reflect on my endeavors, black, I can't complain
The sky rеflects the flow of a rapper with thе blue sounds

[Verse 1: Blu]
Uh, I am just a reflection
Of the God that we praise that created the heavens
So, my mere presence is a blessing and so are you
So I'm blessed to be in the presence of you, bless you
The word B-L-U means "God bless you"
If L is God, be God and bless fools with truth
The way in a life, lead the way like the light through the night
Like the moon 'til the sky turns a bright light
Blue, it blinds you, the sun shines through
To remind you nobody reflects light like I do
I lied to you fools when I told you my name
It's really John but that sound too lame
So I flipped it like, from spittin' image to splittin' image of Hip-Hop
To B-L-U: a reflection of you, Hip-Hop
A clear-minded guy like a breath of fresh air
Not to mention how we sit in there, up in the air
I am (A true blue mother-)
Uh (Now we known as the)
I am so persistent, I rise like precipitation
Reciprocated from my participation
The sky is blue

[Chorus: Samples]
Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
We reflect like the sky be blue, true
Whose blue skies will turn grey
It's okay though, 'cause from grey skies come blue
[Verse 2: Blu]
1983, knowledge born, building understanding (Uh)
B-L-U means "Build and understand"
What I'm standing under is nothing but God
My name is Blu, I personify myself with the sky like the gods
Though I'm only a reflection of the ocean
Like the breeze breathin' over it, compared to the waves
When you flowin', you try to hold the whole sky when you open
Your eyes, but don't front, you know I got you open
Overdose on the thought of a dose
Caught you up close and I blew you away
Make room for the blue of the day
Got you stuck behind, fifty percent of my shine
You don't want in the mind, you'll go blind, I hide behind no one
I'm starin' you down daily like a showdown
You think it always goes down but it never goes down
You just go 'round walkin' and talkin', rappin' and actin'
Bla-bla-blah, talkin' about

[Chorus: Samples]
Blah-blah-blah-blah (It's okay though)
Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah
Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
It's okay though, 'cause from grey skies come blue

[Verse 3: Blu]
Uh, midnight when I write and take flight
Off that redeye like a Jedi Knight, I might fight
I make break a couple basic human rights
I might live, I might die but that's life
Overall, I travel peace around the circle bar
I battle beasts inside the circle at Mars
I must have battered them all
I've battled in bars, I've battled in somebody's car
Drivin' off, rhymin' off, off the top was the law
Caught rhymin' in the back of the cop car, the law
Redman, Muddy Waters, go tell your daughters
You know, somebody won't make it 'til tomorrow
Somebody might have to beg and borrow
I mean I might have to borrow somebody's pistol if I got issues
I might run inside somebody's house if the rent's due
I'm like living in critical times and I don't know the time
But I live through, I am Blu!
[Outro: Samples]
A true blue mother
A true blue mother, go back and reflect
A true blue, reflect, blue
A true blue mother, go back and reflect
A true blue
A true blue mother
A true blue, blue, blue
Why is the sky blue? Why is water wet?
We reflect like the sky be blue, true
Whose blue skies will turn grey
It's okay though, 'cause from grey skies come blue
Blue, blue, blue, blue
Go back and reflect
The sky reflects the flow of a rapper with the blue sounds
