[ Featuring Dauntee VellVett ]
V1 (Shariffa Nyan):
Living in a world so heartless and cold
No love for the youth no respect for the old.
Lord we need a remedy right away
Calling on you
9-1-1
In a state of emergency
Oh
I don't want to live life
In vain
(In vain no)
So I'm starting with the woman in the mirror
Cnd I'm asking her to change
Woooohooo yeah
Pre-Chorus:
Some do it for the power
Do it for the fame
Do it cause they love
To hear the people say their name
Do it for their ego
Tryna hide the shame
Csk me why I do it
I'll tell you
Chorus:
I do it for Love
O
I do it for Love
Oh I
I do it for Love
O
I do it for Love
V2 (Dauntee VellVett):
God I need ya now (love)
God I need ya now (love)
Needed in my inner city
Something like Wakanda (love)
Used to that "well-kinda love"
Mommas losin sons to drugs
Everyone's a rapper now
Boastin' bout they cash & guns
Man all of y'all tall-tale rappers y'all actors
Can't count a hundred grand but talkin bandz
Backwards
I been spittin since a youngin'
Producers told me "kill it"
I just pray to be effective
Even paraplegics feel it
Yo I do this for the Love- I'm a geek to these haters
C Jesus freak pleading for justice
C youth motivator
But not for the "Rah Rah Rahs"
Hold the applaud-plaud-plauds
Not for cash
Not for fame
But for OH, MY GOD
Pre-Chorus:
Some do it for the power
Do it for the fame
Do it cause they love
To hear the people say their name
Do it for their ego
Tryna hide the shame
Csk me why I do it
I'll tell you
Chorus:
I do it for Love
O
I do it for Love
I do it for Love
I do it for Love
Bridge:
I need your power
I need your healing
I need your latter rain
Release your spirit
Pour out your glory
Renew me over again
I need your power
I need your healing
I need your latter rain oh
Release your spirit
Pour out your glory
Renew me over again
LOVE
Chorus:
Love
Oh
I do it for Love
I do it for Love
Oh
I do it for Love
