For Love

[CHORUS: 2X]<br>Tell me wha gwan hyah, cah dem say<br>We cyant get along so wha di people say?<br>Is why we quarrelin` and not living for love?<br>Wha di people say?<br><br>Wha gwan? Tell me something, make me understand<br>You`re not a travel bag bwoy, why you carry on?<br>Who told you the don? Yo, where you come from?<br>Your skin the same colour as mine bwoy, you need sun!<br>Maybe your hair is straighter but I wouldn`t trade my<br>Dreadlocks for a plate of gold blocks and a LeSabre<br>Cuz see, I`m not a traitor, when referring to my people<br>I`m including the blacks and the whites, both are equal<br>The soil inhabits evil, our continent was accomplished<br>Through slavery and massacres of natives now impoverished<br>Yo man, don`t test me, I know the ancestry<br>Two E`s in Europe, both meaning `Evil` for made centuries<br>Retaliation tempts me, could have the nation messy<br>Seeing others through the eyes of the Father`s what prevents me<br>Cyant mix dog with cat but any humans can breed<br>The 100 metre dash is the only race we need! Yo!<br><br>[CHORUS]<br><br>W`happen to you bredren? How many tie you severin`?<br>Befriending those depending if them watch rabbi or reverend<br>Ain`t no use in defending religion to this youth<br>Cuz superiority of beliefs is a mistruth<br>Who tell you say to whom and where you pray is what prepare your way<br>To heaven`s gate or wherever you going once your shell decay<br>If day to day you cyant stay away from a state of hate<br>Claiming those of wayward faiths soon to face a heinous fate<br>Ain`t no way to blind God`s eye from your interior<br>The road to salvation isn`t segregation, hear me nah?<br>Who cares if you go to a mosque, church or synagogue?<br>As long as the way that you`re living ain`t a sin to God<br>No disrespect but me nah care what you are<br>Too often religion is the reason for riots and war<br>You can call Him what you want but there`s just one God you know<br>And I hope when Him call you, that it`s safe for you to go! Yo!<br><br>[CHORUS]<br><br>Dear Heavenly Father, I don`t know why I bother<br>Sometimes to write rhymes feeling I won`t get no farther<br>Cuz all the while I`m arguing about finances<br>With my moms and my pops every time they`re getting chances<br>How well can one expect to do when family`s disrespecting you?<br>Reflected through the disdain for the music I`m connected to<br>"Accept it dude" is what I tell myself, am I wrong?<br>Cuz as long as I remember, me and pops ain`t got along<br>I doubt there`s even a reason to say it in this song<br>There`s a line dividing my family that will never be gone<br>From when I born, I knew I was made to make music<br>But losing money doing it, to them, is not amusing<br>Abusing each other with words I know is no solution<br>Especially when family is a dying institution<br>Lord, I pray for guidance in this world full of hatred<br>Cuz I don`t think we`ll make it if we don`t keep love sacred<br>Yo!<br><br>[CHORUS]
