jplus - for a reason lyrics

[verse 1-jplus]

now we live in a nation
where everybody hates waiting
this whole generation’s impatient
for things that we want in this world we’re erasing
and sit back and wait for somebody to change it
and all i hear is more they than us
more hate than love
there’s no faith and trust
more lies than truths
they treat me like a criminal
when the real bad guys are disguised in suits
that’s why i feel like the end is near
mr. president no wonder we’re filled with fear
cause we’re raised in a place
you can actually die for your country before you can drink a beer
that’s the reason that i speak to my peers
convey my thoughts
and picked up where 2pac and mlk left off
until the day that you erase me off the face of this earth
and the ones that i educate will take the torch, of course

[hook – jackie casas]

some days i wonder just when will they ever learn
that even if you stand still this world is gonna turn
cause there’s no way to turn back time
n0body can change a season
one thing i’m sure of is everything happens for a reason

[verse 2 – jplus]

now society has been messed up for awhile
but the government will just cover it up with a smile
what happened to the days when we used to have problems
we’d boycott, protest, take it to trial
see now we got this backwards logic
we just wanna buy or sell the hottest thing on the market
these people don’t even know who’s their congressman in office
but they know about the latest gossip
like who got shot last
and who got locked up
cause we don’t really give a d-mn as long as it’s not us
you ask me, we need to stop worrying about all this nonsense
and think about making some progress
so now who really cares
when you make it to the gates
you think god’s gonna judge you by what you wear?
he don’t care if you’re flat broke or a millionaire
if you try while you’re here
he can feel your prayers, so yeah

[verse 3 – jplus]

now i can preach all i want
but the fact remains
that everybody still acts the same
we don’t wanna be attacked and blamed
but we’re all a little guilty
of not being able to adapt to change
we got problems to focus on
but everyone’s just like
“oh pshaw, that’s what oprah’s for.”
and between global warming and global war
i’m wondering how everybody feels so secure
and it’s hard when you can’t stand out
and you gotta say to yourself
“it’s like unspoken law”
the thought of peace is so obscure
but unless we try
there’s really no way to know for sure
that’s why i feel it’s my right and privilege
to speak for every misfit not spoken for
cause i don’t really think it’s too late to change
so let’s make a change before all hope is lost, come on
