Why You Wanna Trip on Me

by Teddy Riley and Bernard Bell

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 for 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 you doing
To try and 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?
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?
Stop trippin’
Yeah stop trippin’
Everybody just stop trippin’

Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Why you wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin’
Why you wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin’
Why you wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin’
Why you wanna trip on me?
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
Stop trippin’
