Where Is The Love

255 Views Be first to comment

This song is really beautiful in its words and its message, when ever I hear it I can’t not sing along… It lifts my mood and gives me hope in a strange way.

Where Is The Love ~Black Eyed Peas

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 bring YOU trauma
Overseas yeah we trying 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 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 hurtin’ an’ ya’ hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach?
An’ 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?
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 in changed
New days are strange is the world the insane?
If love and peace so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don’t belong
Nations dropping bombs
Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
With ongoing suffering as the youth die young
So ask yourself,
Is the loving really gone?
So I can ask myself,
Really what is going wrong?
With this world that we living in
People keep on giving in
Makin’ wrong decisions only visions of them livin’ in
And not respecting each other
Denying thy brother
The war’s going on but the reason’s undercover
The truth is kept secret
Swept under the rug
If you never know truth
Then you 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 lovey’all?

People killing people dying
Children hurtin’ an’ ya’ hear them crying
Can YOU practice what you preach?
An’ 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?
Love

Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love?
Love

Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love? (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I’m getting older y’all people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin’
Selfishness got us followin’ the wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna’ act like what they see in the cinemas y’all

Whatever happened to the values of humanity-ah
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality-ah
Instead of spreading love, we’re spreading animosity-ah
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
That’s the reason why sometimes I’m feeling under
That’s the reason why sometimes I’m feeling down
It’s no wonder why sometimes I’m feeling under
I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found
Now ask yourself

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
Cause people got me got me questioning
Where is the love?

sing with me y’all
one world one world
we only got
one world one world
dats all we got
one world one world
and something wrong with
yeah
somethings wrong with
yeah
somethings wrong with the w w world
yeah
we only got
one world one world
dat all we got
one world one world

Often known as a tad crazy I come from Cape Town, South Africa. Started travelling abroad at 16, lived in a number of countries, have gone to over 250 concerts & festivals and… Honestly I never feel more alive than when I am on an adventure, experiencing a new country or trying some wacky food!
