Where’s the Love

[Intro: Talib Kweli]
The best kept
Ha-huh, the rest slept

[Hook: Jay-Z sample (Talib Kweli)]
My nigga, where's the love? (I dunno)
My nigga, where's the love? (Fuck)
(I dunno)

[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
It’s customary to pop the Mary
Rock canary cuts when the snitches get stitches, because they cut canaries
I'm very blunt, but with words is fierce, stuff is heavy
Trust you got virgin ears, than a busted cherries
Strawberry blunt, scatter coffin
Emcees steady front, I got em coffins
(My nigga, where's the love?)
Step into my office, for those who don’t know
They don’t show no love and keep it secret so I won’t know
I’m so passionate, my presence make you insecure
These wack questions get flipped back on them interviewers (Fuck)
They like describe yourself, I’m like that’s your job
Ain’t you a scribe yourself? These nigga's lazy guy
We stay involved, we off the books like librarians
Then beef like vegetarians, civilized and barbarians
I vilified like a villain that's on a [???]
The chariot’s on fire, a freedom fighter like Harriet

[Hook: Jay-Z sample (Talib Kweli)]
My nigga, where's the love? (I dunno)
My nigga, where's the love? (Fuck)
(I dunno)
My nigga, where's the love?

[Verse 2: eLZhi]
If you really know me lemme know and show that you appreciate me
Cause life hasn’t been too easy lately
Was down in the dumps mopin’
Sippin’ on cups and crowns, goin’ through these ups and downs like jump-roping
Thinkin’ I shoulda listened when they suggested I learn the trade
Go to school, read a book, earn a grade and every time I pay
(My nigga, where's the love?)
Instead of dealin’ with promoters that are janky, comin’ off a flight
Tryna be polite, but I’m cranky
Cause they didn’t pick me up, hotel far from swanky
And they full of sob stories like they bout to yank a hanky (Fuck)
Get the show still go on and they thank me
But fuck them, just to put it frankly
And if you really love me, lemme know I’m sick of the guessin’
I should be who y’all pick and requestin’
Imagine if you put yo heart in this and this rip the part
From the start, finish, it would feel like they were kickin’ yo chest in (Fuck)

[Hook: Jay-Z sample (Talib Kweli)]
Where's the love
Where's the love
Where's the love, ha!
My nigga, where's the love? (I dunno)
My nigga, where's the love?

[Verse 3: Skyzoo]
Uh, where the love that we was just hearin’ of? (Fuck!)
Ha, blood on the leaves, that lead you to where we was
We both now or never, like we was comparin’ drugs
Our heart been ain’t the same, so it ain’t no comparing us
Where the love, where they stand tall next to you by any means?
I was there for every frame, tell em pick a scene
And what they did to me, consider it past tense
If I gave you my word, then you don’t gotta act stiff
If they don't live it the same, then cut they livin’ off
Cos right or wrong, I showed you what I was livin’ for
In the door when they was talkin’ bolts and padlocks
I overcharged y'all of them have-nots, I paid forward
(My nigga, where's the love? Fuck!)
The best thing that you wonder, you do the math
My approach too nice on the beat and they call it crass
The irony or whatever should come with it
But I fell to look in the mirror and love the vision
Where the love, huh?

[Hook: Jay-Z sample (Talib Kweli)]
My nigga, where's the love? (I dunno)
My nigga, where's the love? (I dunno)
(Fuck)
Where's the love
Where's the love
Where's the love
My nigga, where's the love?
