Let's Start Rap Over
The Lox

See, I want to get back to the love

Let's start love over, come on


Let's start love over

Back to the way things were

Forget about them

'Cause all we got is us


We can make it

Sad if we try

I want to start love over

Let's make it do or die


When I was nine years old I realized there was a road

At the end I would win lots of pots of gold

Days, when I used to have my play clothes on

I would make up my rhymes the middle of Voltron


But you've learned what the herbs do, breaking curfew

Hit the park when it's dark, make it stand like a podium

Niggas had a box and a strip of linoleum

Some break a boogie but those that don't was usually a fighter


Rollin' easy riders

Sending people to the store for a soda and a lighter

A real cool cat that would let you keep a dollar

But now things change and it's the days of tomorrow


Little kids is big now, they'll push your wig now

Can't send them to the store

But you can send them for roll and put them on my vine

And give them one big push for all mankind


Let's start love over

Back to the way things were

Forget about them

'Cause all we got is us


We can make it

Sad if we try

I want to start love over

Let's make it do or die


People still taking rapping for a joke

A passing hope or a phrase with a rope

What ever happened to the caddies, white walls, and spokes?

Crates of records, turntables, plenty of folks


Remember playing in the streets, touch football

Look y'all, somebody get mad and bounce with they football

Twenty four hour block parties

Everybody on the block pissing you a dark hardy


Adults used to think I was scheming

But I was dreaming to one day

Make a hot album and have 'em all fiendin'


Now every time that I rhyme I can tell that you like it

Be nursing the tunes like the mind of a psychic

Your mind is weary, floating like a dove


Sweating and things, like you were making love

Control the crowd so they can accept it

Total concentration is the perfect method


Where's the love?

Somebody tell me

Where's the love?

Because we want to know


I remember everybody I loved, everybody

It wasn't always player hating

There wasn't jealousy and all this envy

It was the love


Ayo hip hop, set out in the park

What? We used to do it out in the dark

All night long till the cops made us go

Or till somebody's moms pulled the extension cord from the window


Lees on, thinking you fresh trying to impress

Shorty with the baby hair pushed down on her forehead

Ponytail swaying, she hot

Standing like she bull legged, but she not


You remember the days?

That's when crack was affecting blacks like that

Just drink some Valentine Ale, little reefer

Friday night, go check out Star Child at the theater


That's all corrupt, over rap you might get bust

Say the wrong thing, end up in a permanent sling

Went from shell tops to hollow tops

Used to rock the bus stop


Now we electric slide from the cops

Want some veterans in this that ain't keeping it real

Now with God we chill over a record deal

Always the good ones to go, never your enemies die


Till this day I wonder why they took my man B.I.

No time to yell rhymes in the microphone

Take this more serious than just a poem

Rock party to party while you're out the door

But tear it up yo, let's start love over


Let's start love over

Back to the way things were

Forget about them

'Cause all we got is us


We can make it

Sad if we try

I want to start love over

Let's make it do or die


Where's the love?

Somebody tell me

Where's the love?

Because we want to know


Where's the love?

Somebody tell me

Where's the love?

Because we want to know
