lyrics

CHORUS:
I got love for you, no matter what you got for me.
we share a God father, so it's good, fellas.
Now, what happened in the past doesn't matter. I forgive you, brother,
and if you fall in the future I would pick you up,
no matter what you got for me. We share a God mother, so it's good, sisters.
If disaster come to pass I'd be with you, listen -
I got love for you. It's all for love.

Let's get it straight. I feel great often.
We got some obstacles we're facing, but I stay optimistic, and I remain conscious.
All that I wanted for this world was more love, so I got to give it up.
I love the homies who will always be supportive of me,
and I got love for folks who never ever got love for me.
For the oldest overlords in they top positions,
and for the homeless girls and boys without a pot to piss in.
We gotta keep our veins pumping if we gon' be living.
Mahatma said, you gotta be the change you wanna witness,
and Martin King said, I got a dream that we'll be equal.
Malcolm X said, the ballot or the bullet, pick one.
So people heed one or the other, but I love 'em all,
because we are each others sisters and brothers in arms,
and we don't need to be arguing, let's be honest.
It's that love that is most important so I honor it.

(CHORUS)

We all want love. We all got love. Let's make a promise now to never keep it bottled up.
Let's figure out exactly how much we all got in common,
and then acknowledge we got problems that we all could solve.
We gotta to come together somehow,
cause I been wondering for a couple years how we all gon' come down.
The trouble is everybody covers up the love within,
and substitute it for some toxic mimics. Why we still got slavery? It makes me sick.
We bomb foreign kids, and what they ever gone and did to us?
When all the world's organisms only want to form bonds with some other creatures
that's important to 'em, how'd we ever get the picture that we're different
from the rocks in the rivers and the frogs and the porpoises?
There's only one small thing we gotta give up that'll stop this apocalypse: mad love.
