A brief description of the video from Brett himself:

"It is our routines and our comforts that allow us to ignore social issues.

For some of us, it is our privilege to be ignorant.

This video tells the story of social issues challenging our privileges and entering our routines making them impossible to ignore.

Social injustice cannot be ignored when you are forced to deal with them.

That is the idea behind this video.

What would happen if you were forced to deal with something that you may think has nothing to do with you?

If suddenly the world's problems came into yourown home?

You would have to realize that you are connected to everything and everyone one earth."

There aint no reason things are this way

Its how they always been and it tends to stay

I can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday

Preachers on the podeum speaking of saints

Prophets on the sidewalk begging 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 you whole life working for something,

just to have it taken away

People walk aroun pushing back their debts

Wearing pay checks like necklaces and braceltes

Talking bout nothing, not thinking bout' death

Every little hearbeat, every little breath

People walk a tight rope

On a razors edge

Carrying their hurt and hatrid 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
