Lyrics

Intro:
(Yeah, love is love
God is love.) 3x

Chorus:
How beautiful love can be /
On the streets love is hard to see /
Its a place I got to be /
Loving you is loving me

How beautiful love can be /
On the streets love is hard to see /
Gotta reach that frequency /
Loving you is loving me

1St verse:
Yeah, you know what love is /
Even found it on the ground where the thugs live /
My man had to dig deep to find his /
Couldn't sleep cause on the real he had 5 kids /
Live nigs, real niccas express and chase it /
In crap games, black dames and big faces /
Cases in court, fam showing loving support /
You and your baby's mom thought that love was a sport /
As men we were taught to hold it in /
That's why we don't know how 'til we older men /
If love is a place, ima go again /
At least now, now I know to go within /
At times it can take ya for a spin /
Heartbreak hotel then you're home again /
I seen love make a nicca soul pretend/
Like a story that he don't want to end /

Chorus:

2Nd verse:
It's all love where we come from /
In the hood loved we was told to run from /
That same hood where the gun sung /
We holla love hoping it become one /
Crack got so many lives undone /
From lack of love many hide, some run /
I knew this girl with a son who dreamt of acting in plays /
Demonstration with a man had her trapped in a maze /
Tryin to find herself to regain much of that she had gave /
Love can free us to which some react as a slave /
Funny, we love em more when they relaxed in a grave /
Wonder if a thug is raw, or is he acting afraid? /
Everybody loves somebody but I attract shade /
Heard of the love of money, but compassionate pays /
Talk about it with my youth so she understand /
What it is to be loved by a man. (unnh!)

Chorus:

3Rd verse:
Some say that i'm a dreamer cause I talk about it often /
Seen the hardest niccas soften with his homie in a coffin /
We walk in, stand and fall in it /
With the right companion, we all in it /
Mary sang a song about it /
Having broad limits in the game of life /
It's the scrimmage /
Reminiscing on letters I wrote in my small days /
A letter to the people.. "love always"!!

Chorus:

Outtro 4x
Love is love
Love your mother
Love your sister
God is love
Love your father
Love your brother
God is love
Love is love
