For The Love (Album Version)

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
