Lyrics

Yeah, Lucian and Kay Sodom and them
Keeping the spirit warm
Just like that
What is a man without the truth?
Can a tree grow without its roots?
Can the day come if there is no sun? No
How little we know how life is done
The truth is written in you and I
There is no excuse for deceptive life
War is never the answer
Reject the evil desire
Turn it, you'll feel much higher, hey
If love conquers all
Then tell me what you're fighting for
If love conquers all
Then there is no need for war
If love conquers all
Tell me what you're fighting for
If love conquers all
Then there is no need for war, oh gosh
Money I spend when I need it
But I won't fall in love with it
It makes them happy when I give it
It's mostly the lovers are abusers of it
Be of kind and attend to spend it
Give love, show love, make love, love, love, love
Yes, if love conquers all
Then tell me what you're fighting for
If love conquers all
Then there is no need for war, oh gosh
If love conquers all
Tell me what you're fighting for
Yes, love conquers all
Then there is no need for war, yeah
What is the need of war against war?
Bloodshed
One truth, the only truth
The Father gave us from a youth
He gave us the birds and the bees, they obeyed him
So can we live your life, live it right
Show some mercy
Show it right and live in Christ
Oh, what it shall be
If love conquers all
Then tell me what you're fighting for
If love conquers all
Then there is no need for war
Yes, love conquers all
Tell me what you're fighting for
Yes, love conquers all
So there is no need for war
You gotta understand hip-hop derived from drums, man
Drums, breakbeats, and them drums derived
From just Black energy and Black soul
And in the slave days we used the drums to communicate
'Cause we wasn't allowed to learn how to read or write
So to communicate with each other, we used drum beats
Like when the slaves were planning an escape, they
Would play a song and that's how they communicated
So it's like hip-hop has the same power
