BLACK EYED PEAS LYRICS
"Where Is The Love?"
What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
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 then 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, y'all
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
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 unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin'
in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' 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 (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
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 (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in 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 feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive till 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 questionin'
Where is the love?
Sing wit me y'all:
One world, one world (We only got)
One world, one world (That's all we got)
One world, one world
And something's wrong wit it (Yeah)
Something's wrong wit it (Yeah)
Something's wrong wit the wo-wo-world, yeah
We only got
(One world, one world)
That's all we got
(One world, one world)

Where is the love?
It starts with you.
Instead of working with what is wrong.
Work with what is right.
That is the only thing that will overcome what is wrong.
Find what is right and spread liberally like icing on a cake.
Until everyone taste how sweet and beautiful "what is right" can be.

I woke up with a dream in the beginning hours as the new year began. I dreamed that dark forces with brass colored faces were fighting in the heavens but a light broke through and pierced the darkness and poured through so strong that it lit up the sky. Perhaps this is what you are talking about.
Living in this world but not of this world...should be our goal...I understand what you mean...I once upon a time wanted to be a politician...I had meetings with judges, lawyers, a senator, a mayor, and commissioners.... and I was headed that way...but I sensed.... towards the end... that I was going to have to compromise with some very evil men to get a nomination as a state representative...so I put that dream aside... I was full of power...although I was poor...but instead I went another direction...with no power...
Within the system, I was going to challenge every church within my state first and then in the nation to sponsor one family on welfare...Did you know that there are more churches than there are families on welfare? The challenge would be to build them a house, provide food and clothing for their family. I was also going to challenge every business to adopt one welfare family and provide a living wage and training to this person...of course with a tax break...and eliminate poverty in America... I was going to start a movement to help the homeless build their own homes and then return the favor by building the homes of other homeless... I called it HELPS Helping Everyone through Love Prayer & Service. It is now a stillborn dream.
Something happened along the way...the dream of H.E.L.P.S. has died but I believe there is another age coming...and in this next age I hope this dream will come alive...perhaps it was not for me to fulfill? Moses was too full of violence and did not have enough faith to enter into the land of Israel... Having dreamed this dream...I can only hope that someone else will pick up on it one day and make it a reality...
God gave me the dream but I was not faithful enough to receive it. Today, I do small things...and my sphere of influence is small... I was under divine protection playing in the Librarian's(the god or often called "God" of this world) world with principalities and powers...but I lacked faith...and I was too full of violence...I could have had it all...but I failed...My consolation is that Yah still loves me but the Librarian really wanted to use me to do great things...
So close to greatness, I felt the hot breath of the dragon all around me...My family was attacked, and I became so alone in the world... There were huge angels that protected me during this time. There were also dark forces surrounding me as well. I was leading volunteers to help those in need and money just poured into the efforts. It was an amazing time. Groomed to be a prince...but now I am a pauper who never fulfilled the dream that love gave me... I know what you are speaking of... Only, I know that to get what we believe is the highest honor within the system of the Librarian, we can only go there if he has recorded something dastardly that we have done as blackmail for when he wants our soul... No...he has nothing to do with our soul once we enter the light...but while we live he will use our light to hide behind as he creates darkness. I sensed that I was being set up. Those who are light are the token goodness the Librarian uses to balance the darkness so Yah is not so called upon by the cries of the people that the new age is ushered in and the Librarian is put out of business. The Librarian has to keep the world mostly good 2/3rds or his game is over.
I know this sounds strange but the Librarian actually lies to get people to do good. Amazing really. Even when we are doing good, we often serve the Librarian...
The greatest are least in heaven and the least are greatest. Humble simple acts of loving kindness are much greater in heaven than the greatest deeds we might do in the name of God... The quiet still voice of love is far greater than the loudest cry of a million men marching on Washington D.C. to praise God. In the history of mankind, there has never been a time of such loudness of those shouting that God is on their side.
These are days when we can choose to join the armies of the coming great violence that will be visited upon the world or we can choose the simple quiet still voice of love that joins no armies of men but instead loves when it clearly could choose not to love... Yes...this my friend is a time to choose...the quiet still voice of love... I hope this year to learn to love those who hate me and would spitefully use me...and not just me...but I also hope to learn to love those who hate anyone.... as the "veil" of darkness will one day soon be stripped away and we will either be busy doing the works of love or our lives may be caught up in the deceptions of this world and come to nothing... Love makes it into the light and nothing else...
