Текст песни Another Reason - Akala feat. Megan Quashie

Water cuts rock, so which has more force?
Because as water shapes the land,
It's still willing to change it's course
So those who can't even change their own minds
Usually change nothing
Can't ever blame your own mind?
But in failure, hides opportunity
In divided communities still residing is unity
Waiting to show itself
Soon as we're willing to see it
The truth is always there
Soon as we are ready to be it
So we can keep pretending
What is real is just the senses
But it is all the same when
You are looking with stronger lenses
So concerned with images
But it's there in the words
Images are just imagination
And that is what is so absurd
Have you heard the Pig now knows it's fat?
And the Zebra is confused because it's white and it's black?
So what is fact right and exact when everything changes
So change the way you look at the world
The world changes

Instead of reasons to die, find a reason to live
Instead of reasons to fight, find a reason to give
Instead of reasons to talk, find a reason to sing
Instead of reasons to take, find a reason to bring

Instead of reasons for I, find a reason for we
Instead of reasons to try, find a reason to be
Instead of reasons to look, find a reason to see
People, I am pleading, find another reason

We are so busy noticing money don't grow on trees
We forgot that food does
And that it's the food that we need
You see, I done traveled all over the isles
And seen the poorest people
With the wealthiest smiles
So what is Rich or Poor, Less or More?
What's victory? What's defeat? And who keeps the score?
Who sleeps more soundly, the Prince or the Pauper?
Who speaks more profoundly, the Professor or just the talker?
The walker or the driver, who travels the furthest?
The explorer or the pirate, who is providing a purpose?
Who decides what is worthless, versus what has a purpose?
Did the so-called civilized world not think the world a flat service, just yesterday?
So, who knows what tomorrow brings?
It often is the oddest of songs that tomorrow sings
Look back through the ages, everything changes
So change the way you look at the world,
The world changes.

We find all these reasons,
To never be the person we want to be
Because I'm still healing,
All these wounds that are burned,
So deep inside of me.

We think that we're smart
And that makes us dumb
Think that we feel the most
And that makes us numb
Weak because we think that we have the power
Because we can make buildings and guns,
But not a single flower
We are just waves but think we are the ocean
Because it's easier then admitting
We don't know where the current is going
We are just flowing
Why do we feel it needs controlling
A wave just rolls with the ocean until it reaches sand
So let's roll with our part, until we reach our land
Acknowledge that the fear in our hearts, is in our hands
It's not a thing, we just think,
Imagine the Earth decided that it was afraid to spin?
So don't be afraid, to sing with your voice
That is what it is for
The more we run from the truth
The closer it gets to your door
Look back through the ages, everything changes
So change the way you look at yourself,
Your self changes
