Lyrical Analysis of...
A Reason
- Looking at his height, didn't expect him to stand so tall,
- living a baller's life with no interest to ball.
- Not making any sense yet, talking drugs cash and sex,
- media had him convinced that we were up next,
- selling lies having us hypnotized on chasing lies,
- we try 'n try 'til we tire just to jump between them thighs,
- looking forward to the sky forgetting what we left behind,
- we try 'n try 'til we tire just to get caught in more lies,
- money's the devil in disguise and until you realize
- you tried 'n tried now ya tired it's time to say bye bye.
- Goodbye to those dreams and memories,
- the drinks we drank to the puke in the sink,
- but its still sad to see such an advantage received,
- simply off of one man's tragedy.
- [HOOK]
- But I got to find a reason,
- UGH, a reason for my sins,
- UGH, a reason to believe,
- UGH, a reason for being... UGH
- (For being me)
- Don't judge a killer based on what he's holding,
- no education yet so formally spoken,
- on that very first day fights were broken,
- not paying attention to the monster we have woken.
- Second day reminiscing, fucking wishful thinking,
- fucking had us all sipping, phone ain't ringing,
- mom's still sleeping, just means another event then,
- one bottle on top the throttle history's being written.
- Intrigued by the thinking had me dreaming of living.
- Goddamn it, who woulda saw this coming,
- intrigue was in affection who'll fall underneath the schemes.
- Goddamn it, wish their was another option.
- Cuz its so sad to see such an advantage received,
- simply off of one man's tragedy.
- [HOOK]
- But I got to find a reason,
- UGH, a reason for my sins,
- UGH, a reason to believe,
- UGH, a reason for being... UGH
- (For being me)
- People's Creek, what happened, time to put this plan on fleek,
- who's creeping behind me throwing me in the back seat.
- Fuck trying to remember fucker its time to forget,
- this all too familiar, mo'fucker passed me his grip,
- like "white shirt red cap," this shit done escalated fast,
- the street lights flash, "end this shit 'n we'll decide whats next."
- Sweat drip, reds on the grip, past the strip, y'know what to do,
- can't we fix this, I mean shit, let it rip, he has no clue.
- Times need to change, might as well accept it like ya name,
- pistol leaning off the frame, only one will hear the bang,
- engine revving in the street, man's gasping on the concrete
- one eighty back to the Creek, the world's staring at me.
- Looking for fresh air, bust another three over there,
- who woulda fucking dared, friendships, who ever fucking cared.
- [BRIDGEx2]
- My God I'm sorry that I hurt you
- It's something I must live with everyday
- And all the pain I put you through
- I wish there could of been some other way
- In the ground you'll be the one to catch these tears
- And thats why I need you to hear.
- [HOOK]
- But I got to find a reason,
- UGH, a reason for my sins,
- UGH, a reason to believe,
- UGH, a reason for being... UGH
- (For being me)
- [OUTRO]
- And I've found a reason to show,
- A side of me you didn't know,
- The reason for all that I do.
- And that reason was you.
- Still its sad to see such advantage received,
- Simply off of one man's tragedy.
