[Verse 1]
Broken hearts everywhere
From stepping on love we don't care
Somebody tell me what we gonna do
Even though it's plenty to share
People hungry in the streets life just ain't fair
But you never think about it until it's you

[Pre-Hook]
Now I'm gonna say how I feel
And what I wanna say is 
love is the only thing that's real
Now I'm gonna tell you what to do
Just believe that love is the only thing we have that's true

[Hook]
Love is the answer
Love is the answer
Love is the answer to the questions in your mind
If you looking it's the answer that you'll find
It's the only thing that everybody needs
It's the only thing that makes us truly free

[Verse 2]
Friends nowhere to be found
To help you when you are down
But you know that you're the one to blame
We know what's wrong from what's right
Nobody wins in a fight
but still we play the game

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Just look around the whole wide world
So many beautiful things to see
Take my hand and come along
Spread some love with me

Aloe Blacc

Aloe Blacc is a rapper/singer and ½ of the group Emanon with producer Exile. His real name is Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III. He signed to legendary hip-hop label Stone’s Throw in 2006 and released his debut Shine Through the same year. It featured mostly singing (a move away from the rapping Aloe had done in his Emanon days) and was entirely self-produced except one track which was produced by Madlib.

His second album, Good Things, propelled him to international success due to the single “I Need a Dollar” which reached #2 on the UK singles chart and was certified platinum there.

Blacc’s next success came in writing the massive Avicii hit “Wake Me Up” which went number one in most European countries as well as hitting #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Aloe released an acoustic version of the track on his third studio album, Lift Your Spirit. This album contained the massively successful song “The Man” which peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was supposedly played 108 times during the 2014 NFL draft.
