Love is the cure for all disease, and also the cause,

For to know love is happiness, and happiness is God.

Rob a man of his wife,

Witness his rage take flight.

Into a dimension of envy, hatred and revenge,

Now you see how theft is considered a sin.

Because love is more powerful than life and breath,

Lack of love can cause man to harm himself.

The force is so strong prevalling and true,

But if you can't recieve it, love will kill you...

ROBBERS ROB AND KILLERS TAKE LIVES,

YOU WATCHIN' THE NEWS AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY.

BUT DID YOU STOP TO THINK OF THE MAN BEFORE THE CRIME?

THE KILLERS DREAMS WERE SLAUGHTERED, 

AND THE THIEF HAS A HUNGRY DAUGHTER,

LOOK IN THE CABINET AND WITNESS THE FOODS ABSENCE,

AND THE WATER TURNED OFF.

BILLS DUE, WELL, THE BABY IS TOO.

THE SUFFERING IS MORE THAN ENOUGH TO MAKE A MAN LOOSE HIS COOL.

SO YOU THINK HE SHOULD BE PUT IN A CAGE?

WHY?

BECAUSE YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND HIS RAGE,

TO YOU, HE'S AS EVIL AS A SNAKE.

BUT MY N*GGA IS A BEAUTIFUL CREATURE.

AGES AGO WE WERE KINGS AND QUEENS,

ONLY TO BE STRIPPED OF OUR KNOWLEDGE,

JUST TO PAY THE VANILLA MAN FOR COLLEGES

F*CK YOUR EDUCATION,

F*CK YOUR PHYSICAL LABOR

HE'D RATHER GO ROB YOU AND YOUR NEIGH BOORS,

AND RAPE YOUR DAUGHTERS.

SINCE HE CAN'T PROVIDE FOR THE KIDS.

LOVE AT HOME IS NON EXISTENT.

IT'S THE STRUGGLE THAT MAKES HIM GO TO THAT EXTENT.

MOMMA CALLIN THE REVEREND NOW SO HE CAN TRY TO REPENT,

BUT WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW IS HE CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY FOR HIS SINS.

Wow, I like how you gave love so much responsibilty. Often times I don't think that people understand the importance of love, or even the importance of just the thought of it. People like to base love on beauty but little do they know that beauty is merely a characteristic of love, so I really like the way you feel.
