No Reason

Park chilling, writing rhymes, it's that feeling / Understand the layers of the world as we peel them / Now with our notebook glowing in the sun / No need to plan a story when the story has begun / It's just that whole view, look at what we've evolved to / Mixing the past and the present complimented with a soul tune / Cause we need that, people need to breathe that / Essence of choice to explore life like a free map / Creative vibe making shapes from the clouds / I'm always asking why, when the people are asking how / I can explain but it's dependant on the crowd / So give or take the pun, but it's under wraps for now / / Chorus / Man why you doin' what chu doin'? No reason / Yo what's the point to it all? No reason / And why is rhyming worth persuing? No reason / What? No reason / What? No reason / Bet you didn't expect that, probably wouldn't get that / Motivation reflects back, bigger picture, I rep that / To prove what my passion is, hope you know I'm a rationalist / Yeah cause I plan on smashing this, hopefully one day cashing big / And stashing it in the pockets of those that never had it / So that helping the ones around them is so close that they could grab it / Motivated people, yet life may never let em / Do we take these opportunities for those that never get em? / Evident that they're rare, so I'm rapping to see those / While others bring in more cheese than a packet of cheeto's / I see though, why the industry can trick these people / So I keep my pace steady like a fixie / / Chorus / Step back we don't rhyme for the cheese / I know its hard but try to believe / That some still write to achieve / And you mightn't agree, we don't need to receive, but / I feel relieved that I breathe for the mission / And we're not near, there's a lot here, aiming for the same position / Curb writing, good move / I'm trying, to improve / Those lyrics, they swoop / Allocate where they should glue / Truth isn't told unless each word unfolds / A way to belong in each song that the writer beholds / Too lost within my own yet concepts are piling up / Wide-eyed my mind providing everything that is corrupt / From others stories to my own, a man on street holds out a cup / Know what I'll do but for now, ask if there's reason, I'll say 'nup' / / Chorus / Yeah they think it's grand, lifestyle's at high demand / I don't know if it was destined or if it was all unplanned / Nothing I'm doing's stable, may be hanging by a strand / But that's what tested me to find out I'm happy with who I am / Yeah I'm happy with who I am / Sample / Credits: - ‘Reasons’ - Earth, Wind & Fire - From album ‘That’s The Way of the World’ (1975) - Written by: Philip Bailey, Charles Stepney & Maurice White - Bass & Guitar by: Pat Gabriel, Adam Ball & Caleb Garfinkel - Cuts by: Jai K - Mastered by: Tommy Spender - Special thanks to all who attended the live show dated (07/12/2012) for being part of the crowd recording
