Where Is the Love

What's wrong with the world, mama?
People living like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

Overseas, yeah, we try 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, yeah

Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, 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, 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's the love? (love)

Where's the love? (the love)
Where's the love? (the love)
Where's 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)
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's the love? (love)

Where's the love? (the love)
Where's the love? (the love)
Where's 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 in equality
Instead in 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's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's 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)
Thats 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)
Thats all we got (one world, one world)
