| Living in your shadow
|
| But yet the sun won’t shine your way
|
| I can feel your sorrow
|
| It turns into your pain
|
| They say it’s not in vain
|
| To the children of the corner
|
| Going hungry everyday
|
| When nobody asked to be here
|
| They just want to play
|
| It makes me want to say
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da
|
| Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry
|
| Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry
|
| If it was up to me
|
| I would wipe them from your eye
|
| I hate to see the world cry
|
| (Verse 2- Jah Cure)
|
| They spend up all our money (ay)
|
| All the rockets in the sky (whoa)
|
| When they don’t have a reason
|
| That generate a lie
|
| For the strength that’s from the time (ay)
|
| There’s a hood in every city (yeah)
|
| From Compton to Mobay (whoa)
|
| When they don’t ask to be here
|
| Since them fall away
|
| Makes them want to stay
|
| And I said
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da
|
| And I hate to see the whole world cry
|
| Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry
|
| If it was up to me
|
| I would wipe them from your eye
|
| Hate to see the whole world cry
|
| (Verse 3- Keri Hilson)
|
| Looking in the mirror
|
| Sinking inner peace (oh)
|
| Everyday is a constant battle
|
| Between what’s wrong and right
|
| I just want to live my life (oh)
|
| I pray it’s for the future
|
| Is that we learn from our mistakes (oh yeah)
|
| Halfway into destruction
|
| But it’s not too late
|
| Too late to make a change
|
| So I’ll say
|
| (Chorus- Keri Hilson, Jah Cure, MCMA)
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da Da
|
| La Di Da Da Da
|
| And I hate to see the whole world cry (hate to see the world cry)
|
| Yeah I Hate to see the whole world cry (hate to see the world cry)
|
| If it was up to me
|
| I would wipe them from your eyes
|
| I hate to see the whole world cry
|
| I don’t want to see them cry
|
| I don’t want to see you cry
|
| Somebody help me understand (help me understand)
|
| Everybody got a plan |
