Where Is The Love lyrics by Black Eyed Peas

What's wrong
with the world, mama
People living like
they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world
addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things
that will bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah,
we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists
here living in the USA
the big CIA, the Bloods
and the Crips and the KKK
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
Badness is what
you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger
works and operates
And you gotta have
love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind
and meditate
Let your soul gravitate
to the love, yeah

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and
you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
People got me,
got me questioning

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
The love, the love

It just ain't the same,
always unchanged
New days are strange
Is the world insane?
If love and peace is so strong
Why the 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 lost
I could ask myself
really what is going wrong
In this world that we're living in
people keep on giving in
Making wrong decisions,
only visions of them dividends
Not respecting each other,
Deny thy brother
A war's going on but
the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret,
it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth
then you never know love
Where's the love,
y'all, come on
Where's the truth,
y'all, come on
Oh where's the love, y'all?

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and
you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
People got me,
got me questioning

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is 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 making
Selfishness got us
following our own direction
Wrong information
always shown by the media
Negative images
is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds
faster than bacteria
Our kids act like what they
see in the cinema, yeah
Whatever happened to
the values of humanity
Whatever happened to
the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love
we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding,
leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why
sometimes I'm feeling under
That's the reason why
sometimes I'm feeling down
No wonder why
sometimes I'm feeling under
Gotta keep my faith alive
till love is found

People killing, people dying
Children hurt and
you hear them crying
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
People got me,
got me questioning

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
The love, the love

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
The love, the love

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
The love, the love

Where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
The love, the love
