This was the first video I made ever for things like this. I made this for my multimedia project. The first attempt, which was considerably better was saved into my flash frive and got lost so I have to make a new one in a very short period of time -_-

ANyway, I hope you enjoy this.

******NOTE: THERE IS A TYPO IN THE FOX NEWS CLIP I HAD at 3:20.... Let's see if u can find it :)
AINT NO REASON by BRETT DENNEN

There ain't no reason things are this way.
Its how they always been and they intend to stay.
I can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday.
Preachers on the podium speakin' of saints,
Prophets on the sidewalk beggin' for change,
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name.
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same,
A window and a pigeon with a broken wing,
You can spend your whole life workin' for something
Just to have it taken away.
People walk around pushing back their debts,
Wearing pay checks like necklaces and bracelets,
Talking 'bout nothing, not thinking 'bout death,
Every little heartbeat, every little breath.
People walk a tight rope on a razors edge
Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons.
It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
Or a thought or a word or a sentence.

There Ain't no reason things are this way.
It's how they always been and they intend to stay
I don't know why I say the things I say, but I say them anyway.
But love will come set me free
Love will come set me free,*I do believe*
Love will come set me free, *I know it will*
Love will come set me free, yes.

Prison walls still standing tall,
Some things never change at all.
Keep on buildin' prisons, gonna fill them all,
Keep on buildin' bombs, gonna drop them all.
Working your fingers bear to the bone,
Breaking your back, make you sell your soul.
Like a lung that's filled with coal, suffocatin' slow.
The wind blows wild and I may move,
The politicians lie and I am not fooled.
You don't need no reason or a three piece suit to argue the truth.
The air on my skin and the world under my toes,
Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes,
Chaos and commotion wherever I go, love I try to follow.

Love will come set me free
Love will come set me free, I do believe
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set me free, yes.

There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday.

  • Good work man. Mad awesome song!

  • gymnast but great song.

  • Moving animations, but who is responsible for all this!

    Those who are un-armed and blamed to be the so called terrorists of the world without any solid proof and identifications! or those who clustered my LAND, who killed my BROTHER, who killed my daughters! Decision is in your hand Americans!If you can't answer this to me then at least prepare the answer of this question because Lord will definitely ask from you about this on the day of judgment!
