    1) Where is the Love? — Black Eyed Peas

    What's wrong with the world mama?
    People living like aint got no mamas
    I think the whole worlds addicted to the drama
    Only attracted to the things that bring you trauma
    Overseas yeah we tryin to stop terrorism
    But we still got terrorists here livin
    In the USA the big CIA the Bloodz and the Crips and the KKK
    But if you only have love for your own race
    Then you only leave space to discriminate
    And to discriminate only generates hate
    And if you hatin you're bound to get irate
    Yeah madness is what you demonstrate
    And that's exactly how anger works and operates
    You gotta have love just to set it straight
    Take control of your mind and meditate
    Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all

    People killing people dying
    Children hurtin you hear them crying
    Can you practice what you preach
    Would you turn the other cheek?
    Father Father Father help us
    Send some guidance from above
    Cause people got me got me questioning
    Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the love2x)

    It just ain't the same all ways have changed
    New days are strange is the world the insane?
    If love and peace so strong
    Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
    Nations dropping bombs
    Chemical gases filling lungs of little ones
    With ongoing suffering
    As the youth die young
    So ask yourself is the loving really strong?
    So I can ask myself really what is going wrong
    With this world that we living in
    People keep on giving in
    Makin wrong decisions
    Only visions of them livin and
    Not respecting each other
    Deny thy brother
    The wars' going on but the reasons' undercover
    The truth is kept secret
    Swept under the rug
    If you never know truth
    Then you never know love
    Where's the love y'all?(I don't know)
    Where's the truth y'all?(I don't know)
    Where's the love y'all?

    People killing people dying
    Children hurtin you hear them crying
    Can practice what you preach
    Would you turn the other cheek?
    Father father father help us
    Send some guidance from above
    Cause people got me got me questioning
    Where is the love?(where is the lovex3)(the lovex2)

    I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
    As I'm getting older y'all people get colder
    Most of us only care about money makin
    Selfishness got us followin the wrong direction
    Wrong information always shown by the media
    Negative images is the main criteria
    Infecting their young minds faster than bacteria
    Kids wanna act like what the see in the cinema
    Whatever happened to the values of humanity
    Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
    Instead of spreading love, we're spreading anomosity
    Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity
    That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling under
    That's the reason why sometimes I'm feeling down
    It's no wonder why sometimes I'm feeling under
    I gotta keep my faith alive, until love is found

    People killing people dying
    Children hurtin you hear them crying
    Can you practice what you preach
    Would you turn the other cheek?
    Father Father Father help us
    Send some guidance from above
    Cause people got me got me questioning
    Where is the love?(fade)


    2) Sowing the Seeds of Love — Tears for Fears


    High time we made a stand & shook up the views of the common man
    And the love train rides from coast to coast
    DJ's the man we love the most
    Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
    And smash any hope of democracy
    As the headline says you're free to choose
    There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
    One of these days they're gonna call it the blues, yeah yeah

    (Sowing the seeds of love) anything is possible
    (Seeds of love) when you're sowing the seeds of love
    (Sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love) anything is possible
    (Seeds of love) sowing the seeds of love (Sowing the seeds)

    I spy tears in their eyes
    They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention
    Food goes to waste, so nice to eat, so nice to taste
    Politician Granny with your high ideals
    Have you no idea how the majority feels
    So without love and a promised land
    We're fools to the rules of a government plan
    Kick out the style, bring back the jam

    (Sowing the seeds of love) anything (seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love) (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love)
    Sowing the seeds, the birds and the bees, my girlfriend and me in love

    Feel the pain, talk about it, if you're a worried man then shout about it
    Open hearts, feel about it, open minds, think about it
    Everyone read about it, everyone scream about it
    Everyone (everyone, yeah yeah)
    Everyone (everyone) read about it, read about it
    Read it in the books in the crannies
    And the nooks there are books to read...Chorus!!!

    (Sowing the seeds of love) Oh, the seeds of love
    We're sowing the seeds, sowing the seeds

    We're sowing the seeds of love. we're sowing the seeds
    Sowing the seeds of love, we're sowing the seeds of love
    (Mr. England sowing the seeds of love)

    (Time to eat all your words, swallow your pride, open your eyes)
    Time to eat all your words, swallow your pride, open your eyes
    High time we made a stand (time to eat all your words)
    And shook up the views of the common man (swallow your pride)
    And the love train rides from coast to coast (open your eyes)
    Every minute of every hour "I Love a Sunflower" (open your eyes)
    And I believe in love power (open your eyes)
    Love power, love (open your eyes) power

    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love…Sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love)
    We're sowing the seeds (sowing the seeds of love)
    Sowing the seeds of love, we're sowing the seeds (seeds of love)
    Sowing the seeds, an end to need, and the politics of greed with love
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love, sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love) anything (seeds of love) anything
    (Sowing the seeds of love, sSowing the seeds of love, seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds, an end to need, and the politics of greed with love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love, sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love, sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love, sowing the seeds of love)
    (Sowing the seeds of love, seeds of love)



    3) Carry On Lyrics — Crosby Stills Nash Young

    One morning I woke up and I knew
    You were really gone
    A new day, a new way, and new
    eyes to see the dawn
    Go your way, I'll go mine and
    Carry on

    The sky is clearing and the night
    Has gone out
    The sun, he come, the world
    is all full of light
    Rejoice, rejoice, we have no choice but
    To carry on

    The fortunes of fables are able
    To sing the song
    Now witness the quickness with which
    We get along
    To sing the blues you've got to live the tunes and
    Carry on

    Carry on
    Love is coming
    Love is coming to us all

    Where are you going now my love?
    Where will you be tomorrow?
    Will you bring me happiness?
    Will you bring me sorrow?
    Oh, the questions of a thousand dreams
    What you do and what you see
    Lover can you talk to me?

    Girl when I was on my own
    Chasing you down
    What was it made you run?
    Trying your best just to get around.
    The questions of a thousand dreams
    What you do and what you see
    Lover can you talk to me?


    4) When we were Kings — Brian Mcknight

    In every heart, there is a drum that beats
    Steady and strong, it does not know defeat
    I feel it pound, and know the sound
    Of true beliefs
    In every soul, there is a memory
    Of standing tall, the proudest we could be
    I cannot fall, for I recall
    We were born in majesty

    And when the long fight, has been fought and won
    We'll stand in the sun

    Chorus:
    And we will raise out hands
    And we will touch the sky
    Together we will dance in robes of gold
    And we will leave the world remembering
    When we were kings, when we were kings

    Now is the time, here is the mountain top
    When one man climbs, the rest are lifted up
    With every step we're closer yet
    To a higher destiny

    And when we reach out to claim the thrown
    Every man will know

    Chorus

    Do you remember
    When we were kings
    Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee
    Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee

    And when the long fight, has been fought and won
    We'll stand in the sun


    5) Wise Up — Amiee Mann

    It's not
    What you thought
    When you first began it
    You got
    What you want
    Now you can hardly stand it though,
    By now you know
    It's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    'Til you wise up

    You're sure
    There's a cure
    And you have finally found it
    You think
    One drink
    Will shrink you 'til you're underground
    And living down
    But it's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    'Til you wise up

    Prepare a list of what you need
    Before you sign away the deed
    'Cause it's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    It's not going to stop
    'Til you wise up
    No, it's not going to stop
    'Til you wise up
    No, it's not going to stop
    So just...give up


    6) Stomp — Kirk Franklin

    Kirk]: For those of you that think gospel music has gone
    to far.
    You think we got to radical for Christ.
    Well I got news for you , you ain't heard nothin yet,
    and if you don't know now you know. Glory, Glory!!

    [Part1:] Lately I've been going through some things that
    really got me down.
    I need someone somebody to help me come and turn my life around.

    I can't explain, I can't obtain it. Jesus your love is so, it's
    so amazing.
    It gets me high up to the sky, and when I think about your
    goodness it makes me wanna stomp.
    Makes me clap my hands. Makes me wanna dance and stomp.
    My brother can't you see I got the victory. STOMP!!!

    [repeat part 1 ]

    [Salt [rap]]: When I think about the goodness and
    fullness of God,
    makes me thankful pity the hateful I'm grateful.
    The Lord brought me through this far,
    trying to be cute when I praise him raise him high.
    I keep the live beat bumping. Keep it jumping make the Lord feel
    something.
    Ain't no shame in my game God's Property. Kickin' it wit Kirk
    ain't no stoppin' me.
    UH stomp

    [Kirk:] GP are you wit me?
    [GP:] oh yeah we having church we ain't going nowhere.
    [repeat 3 times ]

    [pt2:] stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp,
    stomp

    I promise the stomp, the whole stomp, nothin but the stomp

    [Kirk:] It ain't over. It ain't over

    [repeat part 2 until fades.]



    7) Ants Marching — Dave Matthews Band

    He wakes up in the morning
    Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
    Never changes a thing
    The week ends the week begins
    She thinks, we look at each other
    Wondering what the other is thinking
    But we never say a thing
    These crimes between us grow deeper

    Goes to visit his mommy
    She feeds him well his concerns
    He forgets them
    And remembers being small
    Playing under the table and dreaming

    Take these chances
    Place them in a box until a quieter time
    Lights down, you up and die

    Driving in on this highway
    All these cars and upon the sidewalk
    People in every direction
    No words exchanged
    No time to exchange

    And all the little ants are marching
    Red and black antennas waving
    They all do it the same
    They all do it the same way

    Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
    Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
    Program cutting the corners
    Loose end, loose end, cut, cut
    On the fence, could not to offend
    Cut, cut, cut, cut

    Take these chances
    Place them in a box until a quieter time
    Lights down, you up and die


    8) You Learn — Alanis Morissette

    I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
    I recommend walking around naked in your living room
    Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
    It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
    Wait until the dust settles

    You live you learn
    You love you learn
    You cry you learn
    You lose you learn
    You bleed you learn
    You scream you learn

    I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone
    I certainly do
    I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
    Feel free
    Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
    Hold it up (to the rays)
    You wait and see when the smoke clears

    You live you learn
    You love you learn
    You cry you learn
    You lose you learn
    You bleed you learn
    You scream you learn

    Wear it out (the way a three—year—old would do)
    Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
    The fire trucks are coming up around the bend

    You live you learn
    You love you learn
    You cry you learn
    You lose you learn
    You bleed you learn
    You scream you learn

    You grieve you learn
    You choke you learn
    You laugh you learn
    You choose you learn
    You pray you learn
    You ask you learn
    You live you learn


    9) God Shuffled His Feet — Crash Test Dummies

    After seven days
    He was quite tired so God said:
    "Let there be a day
    Just for picnics, with wine and bread"
    He gathered up some people he had made
    Created blanket and laid back in the shade

    The people sipped their wine
    And what with God there, they asked him questions
    Like: do you have to eat
    Or get your hair cut in heaven?
    And if your eye got poked out in this life
    Would it be waiting up in heaven with your wife?

    God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
    The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him

    So he said:"Once there was a boy
    Who woke up with blue hair
    To him it was a joy
    Until he ran out into the warm air
    He thought of how his friend would come to see;
    And would they laugh, or had he got some strange disease?

    God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
    The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him

    The people sat waiting
    Out on their blankets in the garden
    But God said nothing
    So someone asked him:"I beg your pardon:
    I'm not quite clear about what you just spoke
    What that a parable, or a very subtle joke?"

    God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them;
    The people cleared their throats and stared right back at him


    10) You gotta be — Des’ree

    2—Listen as your day unfolds
    Challenge what the future holds
    Try and keep your head up to the sky
    Lovers, they may cause you tears
    Go ahead release your fears

    Stand up and be counted
    Don't be ashamed to cry

    You gotta be
    1—You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
    You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
    You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger

    You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
    You gotta stay together
    All I know, all I know, love will save the day

    Herald what your mother said
    Readin' the books your father read
    Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time

    Some may have more cash than you
    Others take a different view
    my oh my heh, hey..(repeat l)

    Don't ask no questions, it goes on without you
    Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
    The world keeps on spinning
    You can't stop it, if you try to
    This time it's danger staring you in the face
    oh oh oh

    Remember (rpt 2)
    My oh my heh, hey, hey(rpt 1, 1...ad lib to fade)


    11) That’s the way of the World — Earth Wind & Fire

    Hearts of fire creates love desire
    Take you high and higher to the world you belong
    Hearts of fire creates love desire
    High and higher to your place on the throne

    We’ve come together on this special day
    To sing our message loud and clear
    Looking back we’ve touched on sorrowful days
    Future pass, they disappear

    You will find peace of mind
    If you look way down in your heart and soul
    Don’t hesitate ‘cause the world seems cold
    Stay young at heart ‘cause you’re never (never, never, ..) old at heart

    That’s the way of the world
    Plant your flower and you grow a pearl
    A child is born with a heart of gold
    The way of the world makes his heart grow cold


    12) Everyday — Dave Matthews Band

    Pick me up, love!
    (pick me up, love)
    Hey, come on come on come on (everyday)
    Everyday, ah

    Pick me up, oh, from the bottom
