Testo Ain't No Reasons
There ain't no reasons things are this way
its how they've always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way
we do it everyday.
Preachers on the podiums speaking to saints,
prophets on the sidewalks begging for change.
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name.
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same,
a window and a pigeon with a broken wing.
You can spend your whole life working for something, just to have it taken away.
People walk around pushing back their desks
wearing pay checks like necklaces and bracelets
talking 'bout nothing, not thinking about their
every little heart beat, every little breath.
People walk a tight rope on a razor's edge
carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons,
it could be a bomb or a bullet or a pin
or a thought or a word or a sentence.
Refrain:
There ain't no reasons things are this way,
its how they've always been and they intend to stay.
I don't know why I say the things I say,
but I say them anyway.
But love will come set me free
love will come set me free
I do believe
love will come set me free
I know it will
love will come set me free, yes.
Prison walls still standing tall,
some things never change at all.
Keep on building prisons,
gonna fill them all.
Keep on building bombs
gonna drop them all.
Working your fingers bare to the bone,
breaking your back, make you sell your soul.
Like a lung is filled with coal, suffocating slow.
The wind blows wild and I may move.
But politicians lie and i'm not fooled
you don't need no reason or a 3 piece suit
to argue the truth.
The air in my skin and the world under my toes
labor is stitched into the fabric of my clothes.
Chaos and commotion wherever I go
love, I try to follow,
Refrain:
but love will come set me free
love will come set me free
I do believe
love will come set me free
I know it will
love will come set me free, yes.
There ain't no reasons things are this way
its how they've always been and they intend to stay.
I can't explain why we live this way;
we do it everyday.
