Elijah Johnson - Everybody Lyrics

Just hear me out for a second
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
Can I get
A penny for my thoughts, I thought I sought
The answer to my question, here’s the question that I bought
"Why these people gotta die?" I got tears up in my eyes
Some is falling down my cheek as I am waiting for reply
He sits me down, takes off His crown, repeated “Why do people die”
He starts to cry as He replies about the apple of His eye
He had this kid, He woulda did like whatever for Him
He had His life and He just wanna make it better for Him
I watch His tears hit His hands, He takes a second then again
He starts to reminisce about the convos as a man
I screamed “I don’t understand! What you talkin' bout?”
He was sobbing, and was asking me to stall Him out
I said, no and now I'm weeping and I'm trying to keep it secret
"Why you have to take my hero, when you know I didn’t need it?"
"Why I know you got the answers but you try to keep it secret?"
"Why you take my fucking heart and shatter to a million pieces?"
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
So now I'm broken down, knees weak on the ground
He place His hand up on my shoulder, feel the pain that I just found
I need an answer to my problem, see my time is running out
I could prolly blink once, and then I never see my...
And then He stop me and all the sudden and start telling me bout time
About His kid and how He told him that He gotta end His life
“I seen Him cry, I seen Him weep, I seen Him search, I seen Him pry”
I ask myself the question, "Why I let that nigga die?"
"So you asking about your hero and I feel you"
"It's crazy that they death can really kill you"
"And then you start to hope, it's a bad imagination"
"But no faking these reports and all the families making statements "
"So, Why do people die?"
"Cuz that shit keeping them alive"
"The mere thought that this is it, is a blessing in disguise"
"You just gotta make the choice of how you want to live your life"
"I hope you living for today, cuz they could take your shit tonight"
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody

Just hear me out for a second
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
He said its everybody
Can I get
A penny for my thoughts, I thought I sought
The answer to my question, here’s the question that I bought
"Why these people gotta die?" I got tears up in my eyes
