What's wrong with the world, mama?
People living like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we're trying 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 a 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, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love this'll set us straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all
People killing, people dying
Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
And would you turn the other cheek?
Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from
above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning
Where is the love? (Love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love
It just ain't the same, always in change
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gasses filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering as the youth die young
So ask
yourself: Is the loving really gone?
So I could ask myself really what is going wrong
In this world that we living in, people keep on giving in
Making wrong decisions only visions of them dividends
Not respecting each other, deny the brother
A war is going on but the reason's 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? Come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all? Come on (I
don't know)
And where's the love, y'all?
People killing, people dying
Children hurt and you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
And would you turn the other cheek?
Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning
Where is the love? (Love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love
I feel the weight of the world on my
shoulders
As I'm getting older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money making
Selfishness got us following our wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo, 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 lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
Then ask yourself
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me
questioning
Where's the love?
Sing with me y'all (one world, one world)
We only got (one world, one world)
That's all we got (one world, one world)
Something's wrong with it (yeah)
Something's wrong with it (yeah)
Something's wrong with the wo-wo-world, yeah
We only got (one world, one world)
That's all we got (one world, one world)
