Reasons
I been under some pressure lately
It's been refining
I used to run from the flame
But now I live inside it
Time makes roots
Pressure creates diamonds
When you see me glowing
Just know that I'm not flexing I'm shining
Often time I sit rewinding
Reminiscing recollections
Looking back on premonitions
I would have of exhibitions
Talking bout my good intentions
Showing off my instrumentals and writtens
Then I got the question
Who you do it for
You write for them
Or you gone write for me
You sing for them or sing for me
You worship them or worship me
You wanna be a slave
Or you gonna let me set you free
He said who you do it for
You write for them or you gone write for me
You sing for them or sing for me
You worship them or worship me
You worship them or worship me
We all got our reasons
Different time and seasons
We think no one sees us
Need someone to lead us
We all got our reasons
Different time and seasons
We think no one sees us
Need someone to lead us
You miss them or just miss the things they gave you
You hate them or just hate the way they played you
How many times you write a text
Hit delete
Grab a tweet from the drafts
Subtweet like that's gone save you
Sometimes you stick around and
Hope you don't get stoned and you
Take the sticks you have
And turn those to a home
Don't blame yourself
Over signs they might've shown
Cause you can never learn
From things you've never known
Go back and forth over
Giving out second chances
You love so deep
It's like they took your heart for ransom
They crushed your soul
But thank God for the resurrection
Thank God for turning all my hurt into a blessing
You can have a toxic friend with some good intentions
You can have a common interest that don't mean connection
I learned almost all my lessons from a misconception
But you gotta learn less when you read directions
When you read directions
Sometimes you dont see it
Til you sit reflecting like
What were they intentions
Did they show me some affection
Or my imperfections
I'm guessing I'm complexing
Maybe they protection
Was to show me some rejection
It's subjective but I fail
That I should mention
When I was introspective
And thinking bout relations
That seem to never last
Maybe I was crass but it was fast
Then I sit and think
Reasons we ain't in sync
Bye bye bye to whatever
You and me was supposed to be
Dogs for a lifetime
And though it hurts
I guess I'll see you in a lifetime
I bet there's reasons for it
Gotta be reasons for it
I got a reason every season
Feels like I got some freedom
But my aim is still to please em
And them being the same beings
That be agreeing to what I'm saying
What I'm chasing dog is temporary
Do I want my own story
Or my makers glory
Times when
I Ignore the latter
Climbing up a ladder
Lead me to disaster often
It's like I'm jumping in a coffin
Asking who you do it for
You write for them
Or you gone write for me
You sing for them
Or sing for me
You worship them
Or worship me
You wanna be a slave
Or you gon let me set you free
It's like
Who I do it for I write for them
Or do I write for you
I sing for them
Or sing for you
I worship them
Or worship you
Am I gone stay a slave
Or will I give myself to you lord
We all got our reasons
Different time and seasons
We think no one sees us
Need someone to lead us
We all got our reasons
Different time and seasons
We think no one sees us
Need someone to lead us
We all got our reasons
