A Little More (feat. Victoria Monet)

I screamed at the top of my lungs
But my voice couldn't save this home
You're proud of the guns you hold
What's left now? Where can we go?

Yo, I had a dream that the world changed
And for a minute there was no pain
Instead of presidents and old sayings
I heard lyrics from Kurt Cobain
Then I wake up to see the world's ill
Ocean's tainted from the oil spills
How many kids have these wars killed?
How many families can't afford bills?

I wish that I could let the world know
That it's okay to let the pain show
And even though times seem bad
It always rains before the rainbow

I screamed at the top of my lungs
But my voice couldn't save this home
You're proud of the guns you hold
What's left now? Where can we go?

(I think) we all need a little more love
(I think) we all need a little more love
(We just need) a little more love
(The world needs) a little more love

Kells, in my hood money equals power
And in the world money controls everything we believe in
I can see we're in our darkest hour
'Cause it feels like the government just is as crooked as the police
I spent the weekend catchin' up on the news
A girl committed suicide after she was bullied at school
'Cause some dudes told her she wasn't cool
But you would rather gossip about a famous person breaking the rules

I'm confused, tell me is my life's price worth the jewels?
They told me fight night I'm supposed to lose
Just 'cause in hindsight, they don't like my type
White boy with some rhythm and blues, Kells

I screamed at the top of my lungs
But my voice couldn't save this home
You're proud of the guns you hold
What's left now? Where can we go?

(I think) we all need a little more love
(I think) we all need a little more love (yeah)
(We just need) a little more love (yeah)
(The world needs) a little more love

You can give up like they tell you
Stop like they tell you
Be scared to dream for the top like they tell you
But I'm tryna tell you, fuck what they tell you

(I think we, uh)
And in these dark times
As a part of a generation they claim can't be saved
It's important to know we're not blind
We see the truth through blue and dark eyes
And I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees if I can't live free
Right now in the world we just need (a little more love)

A little more love
A little more love
