Diamond D, Talib Kweli, eLZhi, Skyzoo - Where's the Love lyrics

My nigga, where is the love? (I dunno)
My nigga, where is the love? (Fuck, I dunno)

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 thrash God, virgin ears
Then I bust the cherries
Strawberry blunt, scatter coffin
Emcee steady front, I got em coffins
(My nigga, where is the love?)
Step into my office, for those who don’t know
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
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

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 dump smokin’
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 I’m in pain
(My nigga, where is 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 swankey
And they full of soft stories like
They bout to yank a hankey
Get the show still go on an 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 with the park
From the start finish it would feel like
They were kickin’ yo chest in (fuck)

Where the love that we used to be hearin’ of?
Blood on the leaves
That lead you to where we was
We both now or neva like
We was comparin’ drugs
The heart ain’t been the same so
It ain’t no compare us where the love
Where the stand tall next to
You by any means?
I was there for heavy tell em pick the scene
And what they did to me
Consider it past tense
If I gave ya my word then
You don’t gotta act stiff
If they ain’t livin’ the same, then cut
They livin’ off cuz right or wrong
I showed you what I was livin’ for
In the door when they was
Talkin’ bolts and padlocks
I overcharged off of them havenots
I payed forward, the best
Thing that you wonder, you doin’ math
My approach too nice on the beat
And they call it trash
The irony or whateva should come with it
But, I fell to look in the
Mirror and love the vision
Where the love, eh?
