I could imagine, imagine what type of human being, could leave his family go back to the Caribbean, was he locked up?, shot up?, does he have freedom? mommy said whip your tears keep reading, while daddy's somewhere, sprit broken, feeling defeated, a man feel he has to conquer all, the world is his oyster, his pearl's for ya'll I know I can't find no reason, we can't all live in peace, cause this world keeps spinning, yet still, I'm wondering what's the reason I see people hating other people, tell me what's the reason, when your working hard but there ain't nothing coming, what's the reason?
