Hip hop
Hop, hop

[Verse 1]
Is the reason that I'm broker than I should be
Is the reason that perhaps soon, it'll be the opposite
Is the reason that I can channel just who I am
Right to a medium, and that I even know who Nastradamus is
Is the reason for my concept of what I think pa**ion is
Is the reason that I have become so much more pa**ionate
Is the reason for some fights with a knife that my back was in
Is the reason that some people call my by an acronym
It's the reason that soon I'mma give my city wings
It's the reason that soon I'mma make my city sing with me
It's the reason that I could show em all that I'm real
It's the reason that my team is down to chase a dream with me
It's the reason that I lost some of the friends I did
It's the reason that I picked up all the pens I did
It's the reason that I'll meet the people shaping my life
It's the reason for what I'll look back on as the highlights
It's the reason that I try to live up to potential
Not just when I pick up pencils, but every time that I end sleep
It's the reason that it's not only when I awake
It's on my mind until the night and I think it's time to begin sleep
Usually the morning, sometime around dawn
When everybody is asleep and I'm the only one that's up
So I don't need to tell you it's the reason for the fact
That I never get any rest, cause you already know what's up

You're a flower
You're a river
You're a rainbow
You're a flower
You're a river
You're a rainbow
[Verse 2]
It's the reason that my friends believe the stage is my home
And I left that for the city for the reason alone
It's the reason why somebody might stop me and say hello
Not even knowin' what they doin' is what is keepin' me going
That's what made me realize the reason had made me realize
That any time you've got love and it's deep, then you've gotta show it
Whether you a poet, a rapper or a producer
Flippin' crack to the users in the trap pourin' the moet
Whether you an actor or a member of the youth
And don't know what you want to do after you're done being a student
Whether you was academically focused or truant
Sober all of the time or you was constantly influenced
Whether it's creation or consumption that you be doing
Of the thing that I be constantly thinking about - music
You've got to shoot it; first know how to use it
And aim like you're trying to make em fall . . Cupid
