The Reason

[Aceyalone]

Music please...

Yeah

You want to know the reason

You want to know the reason

The reason is we gotta have those guidelines

I'ma break the guidelines

I'ma move the barriers

I'ma cross over the barricade

And we gotta have balance

The reason is balance

The reason is everything gotta be weighed out and smoothed out

And be in perfect harmony wit' each other

You know want I'm saying

The energy gotta be there

You know what I'm saying

The reason is the hurt

The reason is the hold

The walls, the windows, they got eyes, they got ears

The jabberwocky, the test of the manhood

We got the grandfather clock

We gotta have time

We gotta have the reason

We gotta know the march

We gotta know about the faces, face the faces

We gotta have the hunt, the hunter has to die, the hunted has to die

So we have the thief in the night

We gotta have the thief

The reason is the thief

The reason is it's all human language

It's all human language

It's for you, it's for him, it's for her, it's for all of us

It's human language

That's the reason

You want to know the reason

That's the reason
