Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You hear me calling
Calling brother are you listening?
We need to cool at night, for our future
For little pretty boys and girls
[Verse 2]
We need to take a time, come together
Are you willing?
So we can make it right, for the people
And everyone I love will come
[Verse 3]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
[Verse 4]
We gotta come together
We gotta come together
[Verse 5]
Everybody searching in confusion
No solution
We look inside ourselves, for the answer
But we really don't understand
[Verse 6]
We all must be unplanned
To start sharing, to start caring
And if the sun shines your way
You will find love, 'cause love is the only way
[Verse 7]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
Just a little bit, just a little bit of love
[Verse 8]
Aye man it seems so hopeful for blazing my days
And brother let's begin a stress off my chest with some sex
Can I get a little love for my peeps in the streets?
But this killing for colors, aye man this shit gotta cease, peace
[Verse 9]
Nothing, zero, zilch, amounts to what?
Nothing but you've gotta have something
'Cause we're coming, coming correct and together eternally
And with a little bit of love, we may live forever
[Verse 10]
See it's a time to live, there's a time to die
But when the living get's rough, that's the time to realize
I've gotta think twice using my ears to hears, L-O-V-E
Just love, just love, just love, just love
[Verse 11]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
Just a little bit, just a little bit of love
[Verse 12]
Now look all around you
Children dying, people crying, no, no
But nobody seems to care
Till it's their time, they really don't give a damn
[Verse 13]
We've got to find a way to start loving
To start giving, yeah
But if we procrastinate and we blow it
Then everybody'll go to hell
[Verse 14]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
[Verse 15]
We gotta keep together
We gotta keep together
[Verse 16]
We don't need destruction, we don't need it
We don't need to care, no, no
We don't need corruption
We just need to chill, just a little bit
[Verse 17]
We don't need attacking, no no
We don't need the pain
We don't need to cry down, we don't need it
We just need to change, let me just a little bit
[Verse 18]
Just a little bit of love to make it right
Just a little bit of time to cool at night
Just a little bit of space to keep us tight
[Verse 19]
Living life to see
All my children free, ooh
Just a little bit of love
