Where Is The Love?

James What's wrong with the world mamma People livin' like they ain't got no mammas I think the worlds addicted to the drama Only attracted to things that'll bring the trauma All this see s*** Yeah We tryin' to stop terroism But we still got terroists here livin' In the USA, the big CIA, the Bloods and the Krips 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 That's what you demonstrate And that's how anger works and operates But you've gotta have love just to set us straight Just let your mind meditate Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all CHORUS Charlie People killing people dying Children hurt I hear them crying Can you practice what you've preached Or would you turn the other cheek For the father, father help us Seek some guidance from above These people got me got me questioning Where is the love? The love, the love, where is the love, the love, the love? Mattie It ain't just the same Always in chains New days are strange Is the world insane? If love and peace so strong Why don't places of love that belong Instead of dropping bombs? Chemical gases filling the lungs of little ones With on going suffering As the youth die young So I ask myself What is really goin' wrong So I ask myself What is really goin' on In this world that we're livin' in People keep on givin' in Making wrong decisions Only visions of dividends Not respectin' each other Denying our brother The war is goin' on But the reasons under cover The truth is kept secret It's swept under the rug If you never truth then you never know love Where's the love James? James I dunno! Mattie Where's the truth James? James I dunno! Where's the love yo? CHORUS James I feel the world on my shoulder As I'm getting older Y'all people get colder Mattie Most of us only care about money making Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction James Wrong information always shown by the media Negative images is the main criteria Mattie Infectin' the young minds faster than bacteria Kids wanna act like they see in the cinema yo! James Whatever happened to the values of humanity? What ever happened to the fairness and equality? Mattie Instead of spreadin' love we're speadin' animosity Lack of understanding leading us away from unity James That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down Mattie There's no reason why sometimes I'm feeling under Gotta keep me faith till love is found! So ask yourself James Come on! Mattie So ask yourself Lend me some sugar I am your neighbour! Charlie For the father, father help us Seek some guidance from above These people got me got me questioning Where is the love? The love, the love, where is the love, the love, the love
