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
