"Reasons" lyrics

But you know what?
I remember when Buddy was about, maybe three
AKA Simmie the Third
He looked at me and said, "Daddy, I'ma be a preacher"

I'm not no preacher, I'm not, I'm not no deacon
I'm not no pastor, no priest or none of that either
I'm not evil but when at odds, I get even
I still believe there's a God, I got my reasons

I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons

She caught me dead in the lie, I was cheatin'
Went through my phone, seen what I was on through the weekend
Would talk for hours but now, we no longer speakin'
Man, I been drinkin' a lot, I got my reasons

I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons

I pushed my family away, thought I ain't need 'em
I'm always workin' so I hardly ever see 'em
My uncle gone and now my father caught me grievin'
I need some time to myself, I got my reasons

I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got, I got my reasons
I got my reasons, I got—wait a minute, now

Know you really love him but he gone, already
Wait a minute, now
Better when you're younger but you're grown, already
Wait a minute, now
Know you really love her but she gone, already
Wait a minute, now
Better when you're younger but we grown, already
Wait a minute, now
