Spoken Love
Yo, K'Naan, man love or fear? Choose one
Huh, well let me ask you something
Let me ask everyone actually
Studio audience here the love movement
Yo what's the proportion of the
Universe's harmony equal to? (Love)
What's the voice in us
Forcing us to favor truth? (Love)
What's pain and anguish strain vanish
In the face of? (Love)
What's the missing link?
What language do the silent voices sing?
(Love)
I wouldn't ask you if I didn't admire you
So what's between I and you? (Love)
What's the ocean breeze? Why do
Men get on their knees? (Love)
Laughing
What's life without love like fights without
Coys and rights we strike off?
What's the deal between our eyes off?
What is it I can't hide
Other than when I cough? (Love)
It's love
The opposite of greed and hateful things
It's not symbolized by diamonds
But it does revolve like rings
And time marches into the
Canvases of uncertainty
Damaging our predictions and
Conditions we set
Like amnesty, I'm hard to hate
And whether I'm gifted with the poetry
I spit is a far debate
I'm living a rhyming state and
Stealing drops on my soul
And the energy I put forth
Can sink an army weight
Cause that's love, you see?
There's many things we don't
Know about love it's not soft
It's the hardest thing to attain
Cause there's freedom when you're detained
Leave it to me and I'll explain
Cause it's dear to me like
My mommy and daddy
And sister and wifey and pens and pads
And thoughts of random order
That border the same struggle of human truth
Who's to say what my words are? (Love)
That's what's up!
