Tell Me Why Lyrics

After all I've done for you, the things you say, the things you do the way you
treat me. I don't deserve this. I brought you from nothing and turn you into
something and this the thanks I get, damn.

Tell me why you say things you don't really mean
Tell me why you always wanna fight with me
When I gave you everything
Tell me why you wanna be so mean
Tell me why you wanna say theses things
Baby girl I don't understand why
Why should I even try

All the things that I did for you how could you (why) just go and change up
your ways girl what did I do (why) for you just be so cold to me mean to me
(why) why you trying to say things that hurt feelings (why, why) when you know
I'm giving you all of me (why, why) when you know I'm giving you everything
(why, why) why you keep coming at me so wrong baby all I want to know is

Tell me why you say things you don't really mean
Tell me why you always wanna fight with me
When I gave you everything
Tell me why you wanna be so mean
Tell me why you wanna say theses things
Baby girl I don't understand why
Why should I even try

Baby girl tell me why is always about you (why) baby why, why you doing the
things you do (why) why you always cussing at me fussing at me (why) I don't
deserve the way you speaking to me (why, why) when you know I'm giving you all
of me (why, why) when you know I'm giving you everything (why, why) why you
keep coming at me so wrong baby all I want to know is

Tell me why you say things you don't really mean
Tell me why you always wanna fight with me
When I gave you everything
Tell me why you wanna be so mean
Tell me why you wanna say theses things
Baby girl I don't understand why
Why should I even try

Girl I tried to just be cool with you, you keep trying to play me like a fool
why do you, keep on testing me constantly seems like you always been ten about
something ain't no reason for you to trip ain't no reason for you to always act
like this baby girl I just don't understand

Tell me why you say things you don't really mean
Tell me why you always wanna fight with me
When I gave you everything
Tell me why you wanna be so mean
Tell me why you wanna say theses things
Baby girl I don't understand why
Why should I even try

Tell me why you say things you don't really mean
Tell me why you always wanna fight with me
When I gave you everything
Tell me why you wanna be so mean
Tell me why you wanna say theses things
Baby girl I don't understand why
Why should I even try

Dave Hollister, cousin of music act K-Ci and JoJo, started developing fame as a musician in the early 1990s. Some of his biggest early appearances were with 2Pac on tracks like "Brenda's Got A Baby."

His next big move was when he was signed to Teddy Riley's R&B group BLACKstreet in 1994. He worked with the group on their first album and then left the group to pursue his own solo career. He was signed to DreamWorks Records and began working on an album.

In 1999, Hollister released his first albumm, Ghetto Hymns. The album was successful, going gold, and creating one hit single, "My Favorite Girl." "My Favorite Girl" reached #10 on the R&B charts.

Hollister's follow-up album, Chicago '85... The Movie was released in 2000. The album was an autobiographical work and went gold. "One Woman Man" the album's biggest single, reached #8 on the R&B charts.

For his third effort, Hollister moved to Motown Records. He hoped the new label would instill new energy into his music. The album, Things In the Game Done Changed was released in 2002 and faired poorly on the charts and radio.

As a result of the album's shortcomings, Hollister returned to DreamWorks where he released Real Talk in 2003. Following the album's release, Hollister moved to Gospo Centric.

Hollister is reportedly wrapping up his fifth album in the industry, The Book of David: Vol. 1 The Transition. The album will be coming out on September 26, 2006 from Gospo Centric.
