Q-YORK lyrics : "For What We Love"

Verse
I am a Hip Hop artist in a rock country
I am a Phil-Am boy from queens in the phillipines

I am just only one man, and I probably ain't the person that you think I am
A fan once told me I am
The next Francis M.

But I would never try to fill those shoes
I am the first Knowa Lazarus
Leave it at that, if I could pick the world up, put it on my back like Atlas

I would rap just to keep my mind of the weight,
but wait, maybe that's why I can't think straight these days
burdens breaking me down, drama all around me, I'm drowning

trying to swim against the current events all the beef back and forth
I'm new to the scene, but what we fighting for?
We all tied together in a knot

We cannot stop
Pinas Pa Taas!


Chorus
I know that it's hard
But we gotta keep on

Keep marching on
Keep marching on
They want us to fall

But we gotta fight
For what we love
For what we love


Verse
You are the listener

You are the reason why I write
To ignite an idea in your mind
Through the microphone

You are the one that I've been looking for
To help change the globe it ain't safe no more
You are the question

You are the answer
You are what advertising companies are after
You are Hip-Hop it's up to you

It's the streets that speak and deliver the truth
Corporations reluctant to sponsor our projects
Cuz they see a bunch of jologs and they don't see profits

To progress your support is required to push
Us to the next level take a look
At yourself you a representation

Of this culture and of this nation
It takes time to build
And seconds to destroy

I got faith in my pinoys

Chorus


Verse
We are all the same no matter how much we claim

To be different we feel the same pain
We are the change that we want to see
So if we don't change it's gonna stay the same

We are all divided 7,000 islands
Different dialects misunderstandings
We are Christians

We are muslims
Who don't trust in each other
We are brothers

We are sisters
We are fathers
We are mothers

We are fighters
We are dreamers
We just gotta keep believing in it!

Worldwide we got jobs overseas
We value education college degrees
From the squatters to the province

Got too many problems
The world speaks English so let's make'em listen
To our voices unified for crying out loud

If I don't speak tagalong am I any less proud?
3rd world to 1st world the time is now!

Chorus
