To bring some lovin' here today
[Nona Gaye]

We don't need to escalate
[Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, and A.J. McLean]
You see war is not the answer
[Nona Gaye, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, and A.J. McLean]
For only love can conquer hate
[Christina Aguilera]

[Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Monica, T-Boz, and Chilli]
Oh what's going on
Whats going on
Yeah what's going on
Ah what's goign on
[Ja Rule]
What's going on in a world filled with pain
Where's the love for which we pray
What's going on
When our children can't play
Homeless can't eat
There's got to be a better way
What's going on
When we politically blind
Can't see the signs of endangered times
What's going on
[Nelly Furtado]
Ah tell me
What's going on in the world today
I'd rather be dead
Then turn my head away
We got this first world version too comfy to lift our
Hands in the air and cry for a switch
[Michael Stipe]
Father, father
[Diddy]
Father help us, come on

Hey, what's going on
Somebody tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on on-uh
[Nelly]
What's going on 'cross seas
Every minute a child dies by this disease
In record numbers indeed
Got mommas crying out please
My baby hold on
My child ain't done nothing wrong
Still i want to holler
Ask them why they don't bother
Oh no, Oh no
Make me turn to my father
And ask him why they all got trapped soul
[Nas]
I can feel what was bothering Marvin
Why has the words forever remain
Dealing with these modern day problems
Cause of ignorance surrounding me and my constituents
Too many infected
Too many lives diminishing
Nobody say protestants, j**s, blacks, whites
Latinos, and asians
Pray together
Less fight
We better unite
As genocide chemical war
And the rich and the poor
Know that God delivers a cure
[Eve]
It's a shame our reality is devastating
People praying for a cure
Dying while they're waiting
Ask the lord for the comfort and strength to face it
All the kids with dreams
Won't get the chance to chase it
Makes me sad
Think about the lives they would've had
Think about the orphan babies got no moms and dads
How can we sit back and not try to make it right
We gotta come together
We gotta fight for life
[Lil Kim & Christina Aguilera]
See i come from the streets, the world of racism, poverty, its hard to make peace
Little girl with big dreams you dont have to set up we gonna get out and get up
We fight but still things ain't right
Too many dying lord knows i keep trying
You dont know the pain i feel i miss u B-I-G
Lets find a cure for A-I-D
And soooo
[Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado, Monica, Jermaine Dupri, Usher, Bono, & Justin Timberlake]
