“Reason” Lyrics by Omah Lay
Uh, my dear
My dear e my dear, oh my dear
My dear ah, my dear, my dear
How long will it take you to realize?
I don’t know who to run to right now
Army is opening heavy fire
I’m unsafe, but I’m still out here
(Fighting)
What are we doing my dear, my dear? (Fighting)
I surrender you myself, myself (Fighting)
My hands are in the air, in the air (Fighting)
Only time will tell the difference clear
What is the reason you do not have your own peace of mind?
Are you having fun or are you doing this thing to survive?
Are you taking the pictures of every memories of your life?
What’s the reason why we’re still out here?
Shekeleke give me one, better finger two
Make a nigga suit and tie, let him fly like you
Showing you the route, you tryna untie my shoes
Is that good?
(Fighting)
What are we doing my dear, my dear? (Fighting)
I surrender you myself, myself (Fighting)
My hands are in the air, in the air (Fighting)
Only time will tell the difference clear
What is the reason you do not have your own peace of mind?
Are you having fun or are you doing this thing to survive?
Are you taking the pictures of every memories of your life?
What’s the reason why we’re still out here?
Fighting
Fighting
Fighting
Fighting
