i don't ask why anymore

by Antwan Fields - Aries

i used to sit at my window and wonder why life was so long
but it is not
i used to wonder why i walked along with my friends
who smoked pot
i used to think of fallen administrations that began with a call, and ask myself when is my turn-to fall 
i made the getaway, but i have been thrown away
i even wanted to turn to you and say:
that i loved you
and i need you 
and i wouldn't admit it even to myself
now that you and i have grown 
ten months later it has ended
my game has been stopped 
i am not a kid
nor am i a man
and i don't ask why anymore
because i can see the answer when i look into the mirror
every morning...
