"THAT'S WHY" lyrics

"THAT'S WHY"

That's why, alright
That's why alright
They switched some shit around when I was 16 (switched me around)
My hair's been falling out since I was 16 (it's all fallen out)
It started turning grey when I was 17 (it's all falling)
Feel like I had more shit to say when I was 17 (for whatever reason)
Now my perception got so filtered my spaces are shrinking (that's why)
Like there's no room for me in me with the way that I'm thinking (that's why)
This still (distill) some shit that keeps me pure if I (purify) just let it flow (that's why)
I gotta tap in while I'm sinking just to let em know (so that's why, that's why)
I saw so many new horizons and did not pursue it (and that's why)
I sound like a broken record when I'm talking through it (that's why)
I shoulda roped them others in but didn't wanna do it (that's why)
You might end up in my shot cause you were walking through it (that's why)
At the yellow light, treat it like a red (that's why)
Backing out my truth, agree it's best unsaid (that's why)
I'm dying in this booth, all I see is red (that's why)
I'm fighting my excuse to get me off the ledge (that's why)
Cause if I jump I might survive and that scares me the most (that's why)
What I witness from afar only scares me from close (that's why)
What's been keeping me afloat is barely a rope (that's why)
Every stranger that I pass is wearing my clothes
So that's why
(That's why, that's, that's why...)

That's why, alright
That's why, alright
It don't get any better than this life, life
That's why, alright
That's why, alright
It don't get any better than this life, life
If I wasn't me, would I still be me? (uh in the sense like)
If I woke up in that other body
That's why, alright
That's why, alright
It don't get any better than this life, life
That's why, alright
That's why, alright
It don't get any better than this life, life uh
That's why, alright (If I wasn't me, would I still be me)
That's why, alright (If I wasn't me would I still be me)
It don't get any better than this life, life
That's why, alright (If I wasn't me, would I still be me)
That's why, alright (If I wasn't me, would I still be me)
It don't get any better than this life, life

Every mirror in my life makes another blind spot (that's why)
Every ex that I got (that's why)
Asks the question why not (that's why)
Think my compass lies to me cause I keep putting it on the spot (that's why)
Listen for the true bearing, truth blaring on the knock (that's why)
There's an offer from the offing but it only talks the talk (that's why)
That's a sore sore spot
That's a sore sore (that's why)
Every mirror in my life makes another blind spot (that's why)
Everything that I got it's a... mm
(That's why, that's why)
It don't get any better than this life, life, life
