The reason

people and we still around
open up another chapter (repeat)

rain moon sun passes by
grey blue sometimes the sky
mother earth in pain oh how she cry
behavior like there ain't no tomorrow
from nature take a page and follow
before the road get narrow
straighten up yourself and fly straight just like an arrow
it's we who change and not the time
it seems like we searching for things that we'll never find

(Refrain:)

don't you know there is a reason why we on yah
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
livity and liberty on every corner
ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (repeat) it's not a proper thing
the way you mix up in a lot of tings
tired fi hear your tongue flattering
guns dem chattering
and your bombs still battering
man hafi wonder what's the mattering
send dem soldiers home
too many fatherless children out there on their own
this a no stick and no stone
finger pon the button got we living in a danger zone
sick and mi tired of your war thing
poitics is like duppy it's a permanent haunting
tell dem seh mi nuh stop chanting - chanting
no, no, no

don't you know there is a reason
why we on yah ...
