For The Love - Joy Denalane
It's only natural that things must change
Still I'm looking back all the same
To a time when the music we played
Came to life through the message conveyed
Now here's a matter of great concern
We're judging artists by the money they earn
It seems that for 9 out of 10
Music is just a means to an end now tell me
Why why why can't we do it for the love
I know you gotta make a living somehow but
Why why why can't we do it for love
Ain't trying to be holier than thou
We're addicted to the things we crave
A ship full of slaves
Transported on the airwaves
Like everybody's caught in a bind
The man got us waiting in line
Wanna get signed you gotta follow directions
Still divided up according to a complexion
The chosen few don't even have to sing
You got the looks that can pull the strings
It's almost like nothing's taboo
Consciousness is just a marketing tool
This music used to be our spiritual base
Now we just pick up the pace
Tall me why
Why why why can't we do it for love
Why can't we do it for love
Why why why can't we do it for love
Can't we do it for love
What I truly belive
Is the we get of fun
It's win make in you
And make in you that
And this is for my heart
No calls
There's enough in this world for
Everyone's needs
But there will never be enough
For everyone's greed
Your career will be quick if you
Trying to get rich
'Cause in the blind in the blind
'Cause in the fall in the ditch
Why why why can't we do it for the love
Can't we do it for the love
Why why why can't we do it for the love
We a get the take in leave in somehow
Tell me why
Why why why can't we do it for the love
No I'm I trying to me
Hold me and die
Why why why can't we do it for the love
Can't we do it for the love
