My Reason to be Unreasonable

I fell for a few charlatans
met a couple wicked witches
got shook by heartless thieves
at the end of this ride I found a gem of a girl
who can say that these days? 
from where I stand, not many 
it seems to be all about used or be used 
glad I escaped from that rabbit hole

I have a reason to wake up 
a reason to try 
a reason to reach for the sky 
I dream of her at night, and think of her all day 
she is all the reason I need
 

I try to keep myself in a good mood 
still I get pricks trying to give me negativity
people can say what they will
but when speaking about my girl
best watch your mouth 
I didn’t grow up with privilege
been through the muddy gutter 
gentle as a teddy bear till my claws come out
because the worse thing in the world
is seeing my lover cry
and I'll be damned to let that ever happen

I have a reason to wake up 
a reason to try 
a reason to reach for the sky 
I dream of her at night, and think of her all day 
she is all the reason I need


god gave her beautiful curves 
the devil gave me a quick tongue 
and with a whisper in her ear 
things become magical
kissing her lips is perfect healing
sharing a home is the ultimate accomplishment
yeah, people get jealous of that
guess it is what it is
