Where Is the Love (feat. Sarah Godswill)
Yo listen
Woke up to an unpleasant sound from my neighbor's house
Had pain written over it, pain written over it
So I asked myself who's responsible and who's the victim
its been hours now, this poor child's still getting a beating
Cries out loud
wishing the neighbors would listen to the sounds of injustice abuse and misuse of position
The situation messed up
Truly our heroes are missing
Perfect time to bail prolly on some other mission
A victim of a circumstance
Pray she had another chance
her stance was clear
Wish her father was another man
Its the like people and the government
A total disconnect but the people are government
Child turned house maid and prolly a sex slave
living in a cage going for days without pay
Her reality was never without pain
Tears in her eyes living a nightmare at that age
The good book says spare the rod spoil the child there's been a debate where do we draw the line
between correction and crime
Correction and crime
This poor child
She running out of time
Like
Where is the love we once had
Eh yo listen
It all seemed perfect but her scars betray
Telling everyone who care to hear the ugly tale
Of a good girl gon bad
It's all cliché
I'm sorry but this ain't another classic tale
Oh well
At least she had it all beautiful
Great body good looks she was all youthful
Hang with the boys, always love to play with the toys
Don't care don't fear she was taking the spoils
She was made for the life looking sharp like a knife
All good all smooth first class filled the glass with champagne yo
Let's make a toast what a shame
Then she heard a whisper
Who's calling my name
A voice in the dark or maybe it was nothing but a spark
A symbol of hope in this ocean of sharks
Sharks can't tell them apart
The good the bad the ugly she can't tell them apart
You see they all look the same she could never tell the difference
So who we gon blame the society or the parent
She thinking she found love in clubs and she'll never understand why she always got hate from the church
Everybody playing God seeing the same do worse
They casting stones without thinking first
And by the way now she really heavy
Something growing in her belly and she know she ain't ready
She all alone
She all alone
Baby daddy gone she all alone
Listen reality check reality check
Y'all better watch that step
Where is the love we once had
Woke up to an unpleasant sound from my neighbor's house
Had pain written over it, pain written over it
So I asked myself who's responsible and who's the victim
its been hours now, this poor child's still getting a beating
