India.arie - The Cure lyrics

There's a girl who was raised to believe that love is suffering She grows up and the man like a father gives her a wedding ring Now she walks around up constant companion, our resentment, fear and sadness The lack of laughter turns to cancer, this song is dedicated to her [Chorus] The worst disease in the world It's not cancer, it's not aids The cure will not be found By any physicist or scientist Cause any cure living every single one of us The worst disease in the world is hate And the cure for hate is love Oh love, oh love, oh love Picture this: There's a boy who was abused when he was 12 years old Now guilt lives in the pit of his stomach and even though he's grown He believes he deserves to be punished, now he lives his life past and reckless Searching for love, helpless, this song is dedicated to him [Chorus] It may seem When I'm looking at the world through those kind of gla**es I believe that it's so simple but sometimes it looks complicated God's love is like sunshine not be recognized The most powerful energy in the universe And all we have to do is use it You may think That there's nothing in the world that you can do but that ain't the truth The fact of the matter is the battle world begins with you Be the best person you can be Pa** those values to your family And when you pray for those you love Say a prayer for humanity
