Penitentiary Philosophy Lyrics - Erykah Badu

Here's my philosophy 

Livin' in a penitentiary 

Brothers all on the corner 

Tryin' to make believe 

Turn around ain't got no pot to pee 

Make me mad when I see ya sad 

Can't stand to see ya hustle doin bad 

But you can't win when your will is weak 

When you're knocked on the ground

Evil, don't you test me 

Evil, you won't win 

 

Oh why world 

Why world 

Do want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

Oh why world 

Why world 

Do you want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

 

I'm tellin' you the truth 

I hope I'm not being too cruel 

Since you ain't playing by the rules 

I'm 'bout to kick you off your stool 

 

Evil, don't you test me 

Evil, you won't win

Oh why world 

Why world 

Do want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

Oh why world 

Why world 

Do you want me to be so mad yeah 

Say why 

 

I am a warrior princess 

I have come from the other sun 

Gather all of your members 

Unite them as one 

Move together in harmony 

Build a bridge 

Now destroy a bridge 

Eliminate your weakness 

Conquer evil, the demon 

And live forever together 

 

Oh why can't we get along and 

Take all the funky tones 

And make up a funky song 

That be bangin on and on 

Make me mad when I see ya sad 

With the same look ya momma had 

But ya can't win when your will is weak 

But ya get out ya seat 

Oh why Why Why world 

Do you want me to be so mad 

So mad yeah 

Why in the world 

Why world do you want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

Why in the world 

Why world do you want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

Why in the world 

Why world do you want me to be so mad yeah 

So mad yeah 

Why make me, make me, make me, make me, make me so mad 

Why yeah, why yeah, why yeah 

Why yeah...
