BLACK EYED PEAS - Where Is The Love Lyrics lyrics
rate meWhat's wrong with the world mama?
People living like ain't got no mamas
I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that bring the trauma
Overseas yeah we tryin' to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA the big CIA
The Bloodz 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 if you hatin' you're bound to get irate, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
You gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all
People killing people dying
Children hurtin' an' ya' hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
Or 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 have changed
New days are strange is the world the insane?
If love and peace so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering as the youth die young
So ask yourself,
Is the loving really strong?
So I can ask myself,
Really what is going wrong?
With this world that we living in
People keep on giving in
Makin' wrong decisions only visions of them livin'
And not respecting each other
Denying thy brother
The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover
The truth is kept secret
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?
People killing people dying
Children hurtin' an' ya' hear them crying
Can practice what you preach?
Or 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 shoulder
As I'm getting older y'all people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna' act like what the see in the cinemas y'all
Whatever happened to the values of humanity-ah
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality-ah
Instead of spreading love, we're spreading animosity-ah
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found
Now 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 is the love?
Now 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
Somethin' wrong with it (Yea)
Somethin' wrong with it (Yea)
Somethin' wrong with the wo-wo-world (Yea)
We only got
One World One World
That's all we got
One world One world
