The Black Eyed Peas – Where is the love?
It just ain't the same, old ways have changed
What's wrong with the world, mama? New days are strange, is the world insane?
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas If love and peace are so strong
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma Nations droppin' bombs
Overseas, yeah, we tryna stop terrorism Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
But we still got terrorists here livin' With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
In the USA, the big CIA So ask yourself, is the lovin' really gone?
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in
But if you only have love for your own race Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Then you only leave space to discriminate Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
And to discriminate only generates hate A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
And when you hate, then you're bound to get irate, yeah The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
Madness is what you demonstrate If you never know truth then you never know love
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight Where's the love, y'all, come on? (I don't know)
Take control of your mind and meditate Where's the truth, y'all, come on? (I don't know)
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all Where's the love, y'all?
People killin', people dyin' People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt, hear them cryin' Children hurt, hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach Can you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek? Or would you turn the other cheek?
Father, Father, Father, help us Father, Father, Father, help us

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder That's all we got (one world, one world)
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder And something's wrong with it (yeah)
Most of us only care about money makin' Something's wrong with it (yeah)
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction Something's wrong with the wo-wo-world, yeah
Wrong information always shown by the media We only got (one world, one world)
Negative images is the main criteria That's all we got (one world, one world)
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 and equality?
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading us 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 'til 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

'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?
