Real Love

Yeah!

Yeah yeah hhehheheh!

Yeah yeah uh heee yeah!

Gotta have love

Gotta have love

Gotta have love

real love

When I was just a girl

My mama said to me

You can't fight hate with hate

You gotta love unselfishly

Love is not just a word

But a way of life you keep

You need to know

You're not here just to receive

Now that I'm older

Her advice I still take heed

For the power of his love

Lives in me

Ya gotta have love

Ya gotta have love on your mind

Ya gotta have love

real love

Let your heart be your guide

It's gotta be real love

Feel so good in love

Gotta be real love

Or there's no sense in wasting your time

Didn't have to go far

To find myself

Cause he knows the real me

More than anyone else

I found a higher place

Who's voice I must obey

When I was a child

I heard the Word that say

Now abide in these

hope and charity

And the greatest of these three

Has set me free

Ya gotta have love

Ya gotta have love on your mind

Ya gotta have love

real love

Let your heart be your guide

It's gotta be real love

Feel so good in love

Gotta be real love

Or there's no sense in wasting your time

Gotta be unconditional love

Ya gotta be an example

Gotta have love

Love feels so good inside

It's gotta be a type of love

Or there's no sense in wasting your time

Yeah sing it girl

Ya gotta have love

Y.A.

Check it out check it out check it out

We got to have love

Because we're gettin' beat on the street

And others meet defeat with no heat

And nothin' to eat

And when you're walking down the street

You gotta step with pep

Cause fools are mad enough to rob you

Just to get a rep

Is it me G

Or is it society

But I can't see why

we kill for notoriety

That's whack

We lack love for the black

In fact

Let's end the attack

So we can get the love

Gotta have love

Gotta have love on your mind

The man on the street with nothing to eat

Wants love

The daughter who doesn't know her father

Wants love

Gotta have love

Mothers and fathers

Sisters and brothers

Want love

real love

Let your heart be your guide

Everybody I know

Even they want love

They want a love that's real

One they can feel

One that's deep inside

That they can no longer hide

It's gotta be real love

Gotta be love

Or there's no sense in wastin' yo time
