What's wrong with the world, Mama?
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 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…
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 is 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 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 thy 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’ll 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 is the love…?
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder,
As I'm getting older, y'all, people get colder.
Most of us only care about money making,
Selfishness got us following 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're 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…
