where is the love?

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurtin', hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach?
Would you turn the other cheek
Father, father, father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?

What's wrong with the world, mama?
People livin' 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 tryin' to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
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 live space to discriminate
To discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate

Madness is what you demonstrate
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

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurtin', hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach?
Would you turn the other cheek
Father, father, father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love? (The love, the love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?

Feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I get older, people get 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 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 of spreading love, we spreading animosity
Lack of understandin', leading away from unity

And that's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith until the love is found

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurtin', hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach?
Would you turn the other cheek
Father, father, father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love? (The love, the love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?

Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?
