Alex M.O.R.P.H. feat Natalie Gioia Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

We we gon' be the reason why the people turnin' up
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
When the people turnin up (turnin up)
We we gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
Got em
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason

We gon' be the reason
We we gon' be the reason
When the people turnin up
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up

Getting back to the basics
Couple birds in the stash
One stone on the mic
Archiving the lack
Back wood with some head cushion and a sprinkle of hash
Bad bitch from Miami, she let me feel on that ass
I'm going dumb dumb dumb
Bring in a map
Make my way through the middle northwest and head to the south
What you think this a game
Bitch I'm calling em out
Heading down outta lane I detoured on the route
They said that I'm over rated
Pussy I beg to differ
You want that
Dumb dumb dumb
Then I'm that nigga
Snake and Bat on my chest
Zodiac is a lie
Alter ego is animal put it on on the line
Bitch I'm breathing I'm live and well and I'm leading the line
Get the memo about momentum then read through the lines
Got some hoes I could feel em
Be the loco to kill em
Most 'them people been waiting
And telling me go get em
I got em

We we gon' be the reason why the people turnin' up
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
When the people turnin up (turnin up)
We we gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
Got em
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We we gon' be the reason
When the people turnin up
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin

I'm hot I'm drunk
My bodies warming up
I'm sipping on the clear couple limes in the cup
A couple bad dames in the corner rolling up
They bouncing off the walls got the people turnin up
And you know I brought my posse got Picasso on that rossy
Frizzle said that bitches wanna thizzle
Heads sloppy
But she want it
Rhythmic Puerto Rican call me papi
She was sipping on that vodka triple shit kamikaze
Yeah my zombies my zombies meet me in the lobby
Ripper and that money with Bonny and Kani
Kani get bunati, tattoos on that body
She don't cause trouble and they don't bother no body
They just go
Do it cuz they know
And we gon' be the reason why the people hit the floor
I see they like this season cuz the people want more
I get it how I live when I walk up to the door make em turn it up

We we gon' be the reason why the people turnin' up
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
When the people turnin up (turnin up)
We we gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
Got em
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We we gon' be the reason
When the people turnin up
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin

Yup I'm going through it coat done
Bobby Brown mouth Sammy David junior molly tongue
Hit the bong real tshh
Smoke blew it out my mother fucking lungs
Now I'm coughing up that fluid oh my God I'm so numb
I go dumb I get stupid
I might need resuscitation
All these substance I'm abusing
And I need my medication I go crazy I might lose it
Get back up like Uncle Bernie when I start to hear the music
Zombie out your fucking body then it don't even matter
Smoking drinking snow leaning nigga four piece platter
Got your club turnt up volume pumped to the maximum
Do it big keep it strange mane when we traveling
Weed and this other thing, Mayday got the marinade
Party with the zombies till the bodies hit the barricade
Maybe at a Tech Nine show I got some head in an alley
From a drunk white bitch that thought I was Krizz Kali
Turn Up

We we gon' be the reason why the people turnin' up
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
When the people turnin up (turnin up)
We we gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin up
Got em
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason
We we gon' be the reason
When the people turnin up (turnin up)

We gon' be the reason
We gon' be the reason why the people turnin

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Alex M.O.R.P.H. & Natalie Gioia's song "The Reason" are an expression of individualism and the struggle to make others see things from our own perspective. The lines "It's just the way it goes, and everybody does, and nobody said I can't" indicate that the actions being referred to may not necessarily be socially acceptable, but that doesn't stop the singer from doing what they want. They acknowledge that "this is how I feel" and "I really thought I could" do what they wanted to. The repetition of "Because the reasons why, why do we do the things we do?" shows the singer's contemplation of why people act the way they do and their desire to make others see things from their own point of view.

The lines "It is what it is, and that's too bad for you, I don't even care, why can I why not, and I do what I want, and this cause I said so" further emphasize the singer's individualism and disregard for others' opinions. They do what they want simply because they can, and expect others to accept it as it is. The phrase "Because the reasons, because the reasons, I try to reason" shows the singer attempting to justify their behavior but also admitting that it may not always make sense to others.

Overall, "The Reason" is a song about individuality and the struggle to make others understand our actions and perspectives.

Line by Line Meaning

It's just the way it goes, and everybody does,
Sometimes things happen without reason, and everyone just follows along.

And nobody said I can't, and this is how I feel
No one stopped me and I'm doing what feels right for me.

And I just wanted to, I really thought I could
I had a desire and confidence to do it.

Because the reasons why, why do we do the things we do?
The question arises as to why we have a motive for our actions.

Because, I try to make you see these things the way I do
I attempt to persuade you to understand my thought process.

It is what it is, and that's too bad for you
The situation is as it is, even if it negatively affects you.

I don't even care, why can I why not
I am indifferent and don't see any harm in it.

And I do what I want, and this cause I said so
I have the authority to do what I want and that is the reason.

Because the reasons, the reasons, cause the reasons
The explanations for our actions can lead to further justifications.

Because the reasons, because the reasons, I try to reason.
I aim to use reason and logic to explain my motives for doing what I do.
