I have no reason to hate

And every reason to love
Like the doves flying above
The palm trees to celebrate
As they're heading to a date
Tonight to have fun and to mate.

My friend, when you smile
Your heart glides, flows freely and relaxes
Hate kills the red blood cells and axes
The fibers which are vital and fragile
Let the pain fly away, let the ache go away
So you can see the light of the day.

Hate clogs the arteries of the heart
Love helps the blood flows smoothly
Dear, it's up to you to choose to start
Living or to die sad, grumpy and lonely
I have and find every reason to love
Even the flies and the bees above.
