Another Reason

[Verse 1]

Water cuts rock, so which has more force?

As water shapes the land, it's still willing to change it's course

So can't ever change your own mind? Usually change nothing

Can't ever blame your own mind? Always blame something

But in failure, hides opportunity

In divided communities still residing as unity

Waiting to show itself soon as we're ready to see it

Truth is always there, soon as we are ready to be it

So we can keep pretending what's real is just the senses

But it is all the same when you're looking with stronger lenses

So concerned with images, but it's there in the words

Images are just imagination, thats whats so absurd

Have you heard the pig now knows it's fat?

And the zebra is confused because it's white and it's black?

So what's fact, right and exact when everything changes

Change the way you look at the world, the world changes

[Chorus]

Instead of reasons to die, find a reason to live

Instead of reasons to fight, find a reason to give

Instead of reasons to talk, find a reason to sing

Instead of reasons to take, find a reason to bring

Instead of reasons for I, find a reason for we

Instead of reasons to try, find a reason to be

Instead of reasons to look, find a reason to see

People, I am pleading, find another reason

[Verse 2]

We are so busy noticing money don't grow on trees

We forgot that food does and that it's the food that we need

You see, I done traveled all over the Isles

And seen the poorest people with the wealthiest smiles

So what is rich or poor, less or more?

What's victory? What's defeat? And who keeps the score?

Who sleeps more soundly, the Prince or the pauper?

Who speaks more profoundly, the Professor or just the talker?

The walker or the driver, who travels the furthest?

The explorer or the pirate, who is providing a service?

Who decides what is worthless, versus what has a purpose?

Did the so-called civilized world not think the Earth a flat surface yesterday?

So, who knows what tomorrow brings?

It often is the oddest of songs that tomorrow sings

Look back through the ages, everything changes

Change the way you look at the world, the world changes

[Chorus]

Instead of reasons to die, find a reason to live

Instead of reasons to fight, find a reason to give

Instead of reasons to talk, find a reason to sing

Instead of reasons to take, find a reason to bring

Instead of reasons for I, find a reason for we

Instead of reasons to try, find a reason to be

Instead of reasons to look, find a reason to see

People, I am pleading, find another reason

[Breakdown]

We find all these reasons

To never be the person we want to be

Because I'm still healing

All these wounds that are burned

So deep inside of me

[Verse 3]

We think that we're smart and that makes us dumb

Think that we feel the most and that makes us numb

Weak because we’re convinced that we have the power

Because we can make buildings and guns, but not a single flower

We're just waves but think we're the ocean

Because it's easier then admitting

We don't know where the current is going

We're just flowing, why do we feel it needs controlling?

Waves just rolls with the ocean until they reach the sand

So let's roll with our part, until we reach our land

Acknowledge that the fear in our hearts, totally in our hands

It's not a thing, we just think

Imagine the Earth decided that it was afraid to spin?

So don't be afraid to sing with your voice, that's what it is for

The more we run from truth, the closer it gets to your door

Look back through the ages, everything changes

Change the way you look at yourself, the self changes

[Chorus]

Instead of reasons to die, find a reason to live

Instead of reasons to fight, find a reason to give

Instead of reasons to talk, find a reason to sing

Instead of reasons to take, find a reason to bring

Instead of reasons for I, find a reason for we

Instead of reasons to try, find a reason to be

Instead of reasons to look, find a reason to see

People, I am pleading, find another reason
