Raison D'etre

I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
You do it because, because

Ayo, young man, stop all that dreaming - you outta pocket
Get a job, be a pawn, in the man's office
Supply your labour daily - line another man's pockets
Console yourself in silence - it's not as if you have an option
Bosses are in office, walking; while you talking
Taught you everything you know and now you wanna off em?
Selfish. Why don't you behave and act selfless?
If working class is not your vibe, then tell me dawg; what else is?
Show me where your stealth is
You talk about the wealth and busy building someone else's
Neglecting all your senses just to settle your expenses
Saw something in you once, it used to be potential - lost it
Now you in the office with your losses spreading gossip
Instead of being in concerts with deposits, dawg you lost it
Heavy is the head I guess, I know I've seen it often
It's only when it's close to home is when it hits the hardest
It's you and I between a mirror - and there's no place to hide
I know you hate to face the signs, but there's no place to hide
Face decline, or let it eat you
Point a Desert Eagle, be deceitful to your people
Or you could relocate to places where the weak retreat to
And it could trick or treat you
Certain sectors of your mental that I hate to mention
Reminiscing, premonitions of your fast life ventures in winter
Blinded till the flashlight enters, that's why we

Do it for the love (you got no reason to do it)
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
You got no reason to do it
So tell me who are you fooling?

Kind regards
Behind the scars lies a star
Aligned with God
The martial arts and art of war
If I had fought, how many wars would I have won?
Guns drawn, coz now the time to fight em all

I am more - more than what you bargained for
As I evolve; to higher planes despite the fall
The writers block - beyond it all is higher thought
The outcome - many flee when the doubts come
Backbone fortified, mind aligned with Malcolm
Steve, Nelson - brothers down, we help them
Only if when we was down, they lent a hand to help us
An eye for an eye, so guy you gon' die if it's I you deprived

I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love
I do it for the love

You got no reason to do it

You got no reason to do it
