lyrics

REASON

I have a reason for telling my story
It’s not for my own fortune or glory
Emancipation for my people are mournin’
Oh our people are mourning

I always cried then
I almost died then
To think that I was living in their condescending lieland

Some kind of doctor told me how I should feel
On and even keel
When I was born that was not part of the deal
See how it feels

Waiting to rape me
Why did you hate me
It’s you who had the problem
Always tried to escape me
Tried to teach me
But you could not reach me
Could not see the answer
Was to love me not drug me

Pump me up with drugs afraid of me
Emotionally
Don’t believe that you can change what I know
Promote your ego

I am alive and
I have survived and
I know I have the spirit
Of a goddess and an island

Medication for the thing that I need
Doesn’t come from doctors who prescribe it to me

I can feel sad now
Even get mad now
I can release them to all in the sky now
I saved my spirit for my people are morning
Oh our people are mourning
