wussup wit the luv
Singer:digital underground
what's goin' on with the luh-uh-ove?
brothers goin' down in the worst way
i got my son a gun for his birthday. now we've had enough
everybody wants to be tough
but i give the props to brothers on my level instead of trying to be above
'cause i see nothin' feminine about givin' your brother some love. look deeply in each other's eyes: you know we are the ones
racism is a cloud that blocks us from the sun. one brother speaks in african
both of them are black men
but they still can't get along. wussup wit' the love
i know this brother named tony
man. straight up. him and his two brothers
right. they all in their twenties
she the only one working. anyway
one night she needed to get some
she told him to turn his music down
and he just straight flipped
on her: slapped her all up against the wall
mommy and daddy they got married
they make love every night
but momma's gettin' tired
and poppa hits the pipe at night. i see 'em kissin' wishin' i got the props that pops
'cause she never dug me. i figure still i hustle
tussle with the fool at school
the one that momma sold my sneakers
thought she says he's freakin' her
had the doubt until i caught 'em
hollered at me talkin' 'bout i messed up her ten dollars. god damn! drug dealers dealin' to the kiddies
livin' in the city ain't no pity on the itty-bitty. we try to cry
i try to speak to the youth
and the truth is they all high. what can i say but watch your back
my other brother's steadily goin' under. it's like a curse
and it hurts 'cause it's worse
momma's crazy 'cause her baby's in a herse. wussup wit' the love?
my homey was joggin in this upper-class white neighborhood
just joggin'. this old lady called
the police. just 'cause he was black
they stomped my homey. he couldn't here 'em though 'cause he had his headphones on. they ain't chase him
they didn't shine their lights on him. they just shot him.dead!)
this land once owned by indians
who then would learn to burn. a treagedy
because from them there was so much to learn
you will find the key to life is checking for you friends
everything's gonna be alright
i got to let you know that i'm in love with you. i'm so in love with you. people
i'm in love with you. yes i'm in love with you. (.i put one in him! hey
it blows my mind to see so many people sufferin'
it blows my mind to see so many people down
and i just can't understand
why there must be such fighting
it blows my mind to see the pain that's all around. wussup wit' the love
