WHY YOU WANNA TRIP ON ME

Written and Composed by Teddy Riley and Bernard Belle.

 

 

They say I’m different

They don’t understand

But there’s a bigger problem

That’s much more in demand

You got world hunger

Not enough to eat

So there’s really no time

To be trippin’ on me

 

You got school teachers

Who don’t wanna teach

You got grown people

Who can’t write or read

You got strange diseases

Ah but there’s no cure

You got many doctors

That aren’t so sure

So tell me

 

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Stop trippin’

 

We’ve got more problems

Than we’ll ever need

You got gang violence

And bloodshed on the street

You got homeless people

With no food to eat

With no clothes on their back

And no shoes for their feet

 

We’ve got drug addiction

In the minds of the weak

We’ve got so much corruption

Police brutality

We’ve got streetwalkers

Walkin’ into darkness

Tell me

What are we doin’

To try to stop this

 

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Ooh stop trippin’

Yeah stop trippin’

Everybody just stop trippin’

 

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Stop trippin’

 

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Why you wanna trip on me

Ooh stop trippin’

Yeah stop trippin’

Everybody just stop trippin’

 

Stop trippin’

Stop trippin’

Stop trippin’

Stop trippin’
