What’s wrong with the world mama?
People living like they ain’t got no mamas
I think the whole world’s addicted to the drama
Only attracted to the things that’ll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we are tryin’ to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here living in the USA
The Big CIA, the Bloods and the Crypts and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leavin’ space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then your bound to get irate, yeah
Badness is what you demonstrate
And thats 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 ya’ll
Chorus
People killin’ people dyin’
Children hurt, I hear them cryin’
Can you practice what you preach?
Or would you turn the other cheek?
Father, Father, Father help us
We need some guidance from above
‘Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the 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 unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that dont belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gasses filling the lungs of little ones
With the ongoing suffering as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin’ really gone?
So could I ask my self really what is goin’ wrong?
In this world we’re livin’ in people keep on givin’ in
Makin’ wrong desicions only visions of them dividends
Not respectin’ each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin on but the reasons under cover
The truth is kept secret its swept under the rug
If you never know the truth then you never know love
What’s the love ya’ll i dont know
What’s the truth ya’ll i dont know
Where’s the love ya’ll
chorus
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
As im getting older ya’ll people gets colder
Most of us only care about money making
Selfishness got us following our own direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids act like what they see in the cinema
Yo whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love we’re spreading animosity
Lack of understanding leading lives away from unity
That’s the reason why sometimes im feeling under
That’s the reason why sometimes im feeling down
There’s no wonder why sometimes im feeling under
Gotta keep my faith alive ’till love is found
Chorus
We only got one world one world
We only got one world one world
We only got one world one world and something’s wrong with it
We only got one world one world
