Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I said, what's the world coming to?
Now tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 2]
What's the world coming to?
And tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 3]
I'm from the west S F, started by the gold rush
Where three hundred thou' came to get their pockets swole up
Shaking pans, making plans for a hold up
Killing millions of Indians, arrows and bows flushed
A century later, ain't a damn thing changed
The homeless shake cans for a dollar and some change
Kids stealing a twelve gauge, protection from a blade
Or put it in a teller's face to offset minimum wage
Is this America's greed or survivor skills?
We need a dollar from the street to the highest hills
In Japan, where a tsunami killed thousands
Haiti, Indonesia, New Orleans, public housing
Around the world many seek opportunity
But some chase the green, get the blues and a eulogy
All for that leather trim and some better rims
We just need a dollar, y'all, forget the tomfoolery
[Verse 4]
I said, what's the world coming to?
Now tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 5]
What's the world coming to?
And tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 6]
Now there's a war outside
That's taking too many lives
What's left to do but cry?
But you gotta believe in something
Don't just stand for nothing
So fight for your right and let's end this war, baby
[Verse 7]
What's the world coming to?
Now tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 8]
What's the world coming to?
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
[Verse 9]
I see people get shot below my window sill
Over love and drugs and wrinkled bills
Thugs hugging steel with intent to kill
Out to destroy for real what was meant to build
Sport scars on their sleeves and walk their hearts on a leash
Barking at peace, talking smart with police
You think it's gonna stop soon, brother
Long as the sun shines, we'll always have thunder
Love conquers all, we'll always have to wonder
What life could be like if we lived love for others
'Cause for sho, we know what it's like without it
Just look at that body and chalk lines that surround it
[Verse 10]
I said, what's the world coming to?
Now tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
(We gotta find love)
[Verse 11]
What's the world coming to?
And tell me what I'm supposed to do
We gotta find love today
I know there's a way, it's gon' be alright
