The Roots
"Humanity (Love the Way It Should Be)"

Whoa, oh, yeah

Time is gettin' harder and harder
More and more each day, yeah
Still I am determined that I'm never gonna change my way
Thinking 'bout love the way it should be
You gotta open your eyes and you will see
About love the way it should be
You gotta make up your minds and you'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity, whoa

What happened to the love
That they are all talking about?
It's nothing but useless words
Coming from out of their mouths
Talking 'bout love the way it should be
We gotta open our eyes and we will see
About love the way it should be
We gotta make up our minds and we'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity, whoa

(..) Whoa, yes, yeah!

What happened to the love

About love the way it should be
We gotta make up our minds and we'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity, whoa
