We don't drink the same water
But we're all on a wave
Now my drinkin's a problem
'Cause the rules aren't the same
There's a crack inside the wall we hide with flowers
And you don't look outside the windows of your towers
If homie knew what it was, what it was
He would L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
Put your lighters up, roll another one, hands up to the sky
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
What's really good with all of y'all?
Got me lookin' like I've seen 'em all, isn't this irregular?
All I see is church-church, liquor store
Maybe I'm gettin' ahead of myself
Was, I Have A Dream just too difficult for them to sell?
There's a crack inside the wall we hide with flowers
And you don't look outside the windows of your towers
If homie knew what it was, what it was
You would L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
Put your lighters up, roll another one, hands up to the sky
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
And I saw them with faces pressed up against the window
And the only thing I could think was
What have we done?
As we try to guide and protect our girls
Through the challenges of this life, you can do right
How we, how we exploited
That when someone is cruel or acts like a bully
You don't stoop to their level
Now our motto is
When they go low, we go high
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
Put your lighters up, roll another one, hands up to the sky
L-O-V-E, L-O, L-O-V-E
