Yolanda Adams - Gotta Have Love lyrics
[Yolanda Adams - Gotta Have Love lyrics]
Yeah! yeah, yeah!
Hhehheheh! yeah, yeah uh heee yeah!
Gotta have love gotta have love
Gotta have love real love
When I was just a girl my mama said to me
You can't fight hate with hate
You gotta love unselfishly
Love is not just a word
But a way of life you keep you need to know
You're not here just to receive
Now that I'm older
Her advice I still take heed
For the power of his love lives in me
Ya gotta have love
Ya gotta have love on your mind
Ya gotta have love real love
Let your heart be your guide
It's gotta be real love feel so good in love
Gotta be real love
Or there's no sense in wasting your time
Didn't have to go far to find myself
'Cause he knows the real me
More than anyone else
I found a higher place
Whose voice I must obey when I was a child
I heard the Word that say now abide in these
Hope and charity
And the greatest of these three
Has set me free
Ya gotta have love ya gotta have love
On your mind
Ya gotta have love real love
Let your heart be your guide
It's gotta be real love feel so good in love
Gotta be real love
Or there's no sense in wasting your time
Gotta be unconditional love
Ya gotta be an example gotta have love
Love feels so good inside
It's gotta be a type of love
Or there's no sense in wasting your time
Yeah, sing it girl ya gotta have love
YA check it out check it out check it out
We got to have love
Because we're gettin' beat on the street
And others meet defeat with no heat
And nothin' to eat
And when you're walking down the street
You gotta step with pep 'Cause fools are mad
Enough to rob you just to get a rep
Is it me, G or is it society
But, I can't see why we kill for notoriety
That's whack we lack love for the black
In fact let's end the attack
So we can get the love
Gotta have love gotta have love on your mind
The man on the street with nothing to eat
Wants love
The daughter who doesn't know her father
Wants love gotta have love
Mothers and fathers sisters and brothers
Want love real love
Let your heart be your guide
Everybody I know even they want love
They want a love that's real
One they can feel one that's deep inside
That they can no longer hide
It's gotta be real love gotta be love
Or there's no sense in wastin' yo time
Hhehheheh! yeah, yeah uh heee yeah!
Gotta have love gotta have love
Gotta have love real love
When I was just a girl my mama said to me
You can't fight hate with hate
You gotta love unselfishly
Love is not just a word
But a way of life you keep you need to know
You're not here just to receive
Now that I'm older

For the power of his love lives in me
Ya gotta have love

Ya gotta have love real love
Let your heart be your guide
