What's wrong with the world mama People living like they ain't got no mama I think the whole world's addicted to the drama Only attracted to things that will bring you trauma Over seas, yeah, we tryin' to stop terrorism But we still got terrorists here living in the USA The big CIA, the Bloods, and the Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race Then you only leave space to discriminate And to discriminate only generates hate And when you hate then you're bound to get irate Madness is what you demonstrate And that's exactly how anger works and operates Man, you got to have love just to set it straight Take control of your mind and meditate Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all
[Chorus] People killing, people dying Children hurtin', hear them crying Can you practice what you preach Or would you turn the other cheek Father father father father Send some guidance from above 'Cause people got me, got me questioning Where is the love
It just ain't the same all the ways of change New days are strange Is the world insane If love and peace is so strong Why the pieces of love don't belong Nations dropping bombs Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones With ongoing suffering as the youth are young So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone So I can ask myself really what is going wrong The world that we're living in People keep on giving in Making wrong decisions only visions of the dividend Not respecting each other Denying thy brother A war going on, but the reasons undercover The truth is kept secret It's swept under the rug If you never know truth then you never know love Where's the love y'all, c'mon, I don't know Where's the truth y'all, c'mon, I don't know Where's the love y'all
[Chorus]
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder As I'm gettin' older y'all people gets colder Most of us only care about money makin' Selfishness got us following the wrong direction Wrong information always shown by the media Negative images is the main criteria Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria Kids want to act like what they see in the cinemas
Whatever happened to the values of humanity Whatever happened to the fairness and equality Instead of spreading love We spreading animosity Lack of understanding Leading us away from unity That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under Gotta keep our faith alive 'till love is found
