This guys voice is great!! i particularly love 'Aint no reason' .. his lyrics are great.


There aint no reason things are this way
it how they've always been and they intend to stay
i cant explain why we live this way,
we do it every day.

Preachers on the podium speaking of saints
prophets on the sidewalk begging for change
old ladies laugh from the fire escape cursing my name
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
a window and a pigeon with the broken wing
you can spend your whole life working for something
just to have it taken away
people walk around pushing back their desk
wearing pay checks like necklaces and bracelets
talking bout nothing not thinking bout death
every little heartbeat every little breath
people walk a tightrope on a razors edge
carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons
it could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
or a thought or a word or a sentance.

There aint no reason things are this way
it how they've always been and they intend to stay
i dont know why i say the things i say
but i say them anyway.

But love will come set me free
love will come set me free, i do believe
love will come set me free, i know it will
love will come set me free, yes.

Prison walls still standing tall
some things never change at all
keep on building prisons gonna fill them all
keep on building bombs gonna drop them all
working your fingers bare to the bone
breaking your back, make you sell your soul
like a lung is filled with coal, suffocating slow
The wind blows wild and i may move
but politicians lie and i am not fooled
you dont need a reason,
or a three piece suit to argue the truth
the air on my skin and the world under my toes
slavery is stiched onto the fabric of my clothes
chaos and commotion wherever i go
love i try to follow.

love will come set me free
love will come set me free, i do believe
love will come set me free, i know it will
love will come set me free, yes.

There aint no reason things are this way
it how they've always been and they intend to stay
i cant explain why we live this way,
we do it everyday.
