Lyrics: Million Reasons

MILLION REASONS

WRITTEN BY: J.R HILTON

DECEMBER 2016

I COULD THINK OF A MILLION REASONS

NOT TO BELIEVE HALF THE THINGS I HEAR

BUT IT'S THE OTHER HALF YOU HAVE TO FEAR

WHY WOULD THESE BE SUCH TROUBLED TIMES

PEOPLE FINALLY WAKING, TO SEE ALL THESE CRIMES 

MOSTLY COMMITTED BY THEIR GOVERNMENTS

AND THEIR LIES

RUTHLESS TO A FAULT, WHERE PEOPLE

 DON'T MATTER MUCH

AS LONG AS YOUR NUMBER

KEEPS FEEDING THE MACHINE

BUT THIS NEW CONSCIOUSNESS THAT'S AWAKENED

HAS THE POWERS IN FEAR

THE END OF ALL THAT'S WRONG, IS DRAWING NEAR

BUT THE LION ISN'T SLEEPING TONIGHT

AS HE SURVEYS HIS KINGDOM IN THE MOONLIGHT

NOT LIKING WHAT HE SEES AND HEARS

SOME ACT AS ABOVE HIM

DOING AS THEY PLEASE

HE KNOWS NOW'S THE TIME

TO BRING THEM TO THEIR KNEES

THERE'S A REASON WHY, THEY CALL HIM KING

HE COMMANDS ALL HE BRINGS

WHEN HE'S AWAKE, HE SEES EVERYTHING

HE UNDERSTANDS JUSTICE, AND WHAT IT MEANS

CALLS HIS PRIDE, TO HIS SIDE

ALL AS ONE ALLIED

SHEER NUMBERS ABOVE THE FOE

GUARANTEES THEIR DEFEAT, HE KNOWS

THE ONES THAT SCATTER ON THE WINDS

WILL BE TAKEN LAST

THEY WON'T GET AWAY, THEY WON'T GET PAST

ONCE THIS THING GETS STARTED

IT WON'T STOP

IT'LL KEEP ON ROLLING

TAKE OUT THE BOTTOM, THEN GO FOR THE TOP

THEY'VE RUN OUT OF PLACES TO HIDE

FORWARD THE HUNTERS CRIED

THINGS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME

FOR THE ONES THAT FORCED US TO PLAY THEIR GAME

I COULD THINK OF A MILLION REASONS WHY

THIS MIGHT TAKE AWHILE

BUT WE'VE GOT TO TRY

JUST LIKE THE LION, NEVER ASKING WHY

IF WILD GETS IT DONE

THEN THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO BECOME

IT'S ALL IN YOU, AND IN ME TO

LETS SEE WHAT IT CAN DO
