[Intro]
What happened to the love?
Happy people
What happened to the love?
Happy people [x4]
What happened to the love?
[Verse 1: Tragic Hero]
I smile for the killers
Smile for the lights
Smile for the liquor
Smile for the white
See my heart is goin' numb
I don't hold my tongue like a gun
'Cause it seems that we only getting crumbs
So we blunted by the roaches like why even bother
And we haunted by the ghosts of all the missing fathers
And it's glamorize the camera like cue the siren
But in my city every mornin' they gon' cue the violence
But we dream small scoopin' water out the ocean
That's another cup that's broken
I just hope that someone notice us and help
All these images are killin' us
Self-fulfillin' prophecy is fillin' us
And none of it is real
I mean God can only save us
Hidin' all the anguish with dry blood on the pavement
I sow seeds, I hope these, these poor trees in due time, do hold dreams, and proceed, no silicone, no smoke screens
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wanna pray
Sometimes I wanna smoke
Sometimes I wanna stay
Sometimes I wanna go
Sometimes Sometimes [x2]
[Verse 2: Tragic Hero]
It's like the more that I'm here the harder to leave
The son of an addict I wear my heart on my sleeve
Painted murals of chain wearers barefooted
Walkin' over broken stained glass mirrors
Drinkin' our mascara hopin'
Think and we blink and then all the past leaves
The Henny we drinkin' made us forget 'bout last week
Like the child that you bear from a one-night affair
Yeah it might not be fair but I'm already here
And it was written
Sometimes the poorest to me are the richest
We can have everything and still feel like somethin' is missin'
See I'm just another child 'pending on a smile
Hoping no one steals it walkin' down another mile
[Chorus]
Sometimes I wanna pray
Sometimes I wanna smoke
Sometimes I wanna stay
Sometimes I wanna go
Sometimes Sometimes [x2]
[Verse 3: Taelor Gray]
Thomas said he took the bus home just to touch home
So I'mma touch on the faces make the places call it Rushmore
Brush the dust off and I'm home here's the canvas
Inner city up the street from the student campus
The district has some history so gentrify it
That don't make the issues simplified the anger is intensified
The hipsters get the trend fluent with the trends
They move in with they friends affluent with they friends
That money give you choices you stayin' or you leavin'
The system call it justice but it's preyin' on the people
We the second most segregated city in America
Yeah, but we call it even
Who gon' call it equal to the body of Somalis and Italians
The finale is the valley and the valley's full of dry bones
I know the words can make you live but look at what we did
What happened to the love?
[Outro]
Happy people
What happened to the love?
Happy people [x4]
What happened to the love?
Happy people [x4]
What happened to the love?
