Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, whoa
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where's the love?
Where
[Verse 2]
'Cause the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
[Verse 3]
Hey, look kids, you need to change your tune
That avenue you travelin' unravelin' soon
You'll be battlin' doom but does it matter to you?
Worried 'bout who was laughin' at you
Your appearance is more important than what's really real?
'Cause here it is, situation's bad not meanin' good
A lot be in the hood that got me with nowhere to put
My trust in, no discussion
Spontaneous combustion
Lust and greed, if you ain't up to speed
You's a duck in need
Cat's ain't got enough to eat
So there's bluff's and beef
Chicks up the street
That tricks come to see, guns under the sheets
Shells pummel your meat
Forgettin' former, still
Dude, you're sorta chill
Sittin' on 'bout 40 mill
But his whole quart'll get spilled
Over those sort of deals
That get you sorta killed or up in court looking for appeals
[Verse 4]
Yes, the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
Show
Take me away
'Cause the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
[Verse 5]
So down, I want to go
So cold, I have to go
So down, I need to go
So cold as I go
[Verse 6]
Yo, what up fam?
You don't know who I am
Last week you was acting like you was my man
But you wasn't, hey?
Served you're purpose, dog?
At the end of the day
Is it worth is all?
Immersed in all the worth the world got to offer
But perpetrating proper like a nothing can stop you
Can't even trust my doctor, she in it for profit
And everybody lookin' for some kind of prophet
Situation mad toxic, my man got hit
'Cause the bird he was with wouldn't stop squawkin'
She jugglin' five cats and they all lost in
The illusion of love that she used for profit
The usual topic, chickens and benjamin's
You supposed to be my kin
Mexican or Asian, European or Korean or Jamaican
Makes no difference
Our existence is still shared between us in essence
[Verse 7]
Yes, the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
Show
Take me away
'Cause the world's gone bad
Ah
We lost the love we had
Ah
[Verse 8]
Show some love for your brothers and sisters
Show some love for the whole wide world
Show some love for your enemies and frenemies
Show some love for the rejects on the street
Show some love for the whole wide world
[Verse 9]
Oh whoa
'Cause the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
[Verse 10]
Yo, if the world is bad, refer to your dad
And his before four score
What's the reason he's sore for?
Karma is real, part of the deals when how you started the deal
'Cause everything a 360
It'll start the cartwheel
And snowballs, so don't forget now 'cause I told ya'll
Dead the hate, 'cause all it do is hold ya'll captive
All in the world you're trapped in
Relapsin', you can't feel what's happenin'
I deal with facts, man
I was at the crossroads dealin' with lost souls
That couldn't cross though
Lost hope off dope
Out the jostle
Any unwary traveler that would fall for the talk show
It's foul how they play
But you can't stray
To show love take
Courage and strength, but realize we ain't as sure as we think, you know?
[Verse 11]
The world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
Take me away
Yes, the world's gone bad
We lost the love we had
Show
[Verse 12]
So down, I want to go
So cold, I have to go
So down, I need to go
So cold as I go
[Verse 13]
'Cause the world's gone crazy
Even though love no more
Show love
Show love
Show, show love
Sure love
Sure love
Sure love
Oh, whoa
'Cause the world's gone bad
