Yolanda Adams - Gotta Have Love lyrics

Yeah! Yeah yeah hhehheheh! Yeah yeah uh heee yeah! Gotta have love Gotta have love Gotta have love real love When I was just a girl My mama said to me You can't fight hate with hate You gotta love unselfishly Love is not just a word But a way of life you keep You need to know You're not here just to receive Now that I'm older Her advice I still take heed For the power of his love Lives in me Ya gotta have love Ya gotta have love on your mind Ya gotta have love real love Let your heart be your guide It's gotta be real love Feel so good in love Gotta be real love Or there's no sense in wasting your time Didn't have to go far To find myself Cause he knows the real me More than anyone else I found a higher place Who's voice I must obey When I was a child I heard the Word that say Now abide in these hope and charity And the greatest of these three Has set me free Ya gotta have love Ya gotta have love on your mind Ya gotta have love real love Let your heart be your guide It's gotta be real love Feel so good in love Gotta be real love Or there's no sense in wasting your time Gotta be unconditional love Ya gotta be an example Gotta have love Love feels so good inside It's gotta be a type of love Or there's no sense in wasting your time Yeah sing it girl Ya gotta have love Y.A. Check it out check it out check it out We got to have love Because we're gettin' beat on the street And others meet defeat with no heat And nothin' to eat And when you're walking down the street You gotta step with pep Cause fools are mad enough to rob you Just to get a rep Is it me G Or is it society But I can't see why we k** for notoriety That's whack We lack love for the black In fact Let's end the attack So we can get the love Gotta have love Gotta have love on your mind The man on the street with nothing to eat Wants love The daughter who doesn't know her father Wants love Gotta have love Mothers and fathers Sisters and brothers Want love real love Let your heart be your guide Everybody I know Even they want love They want a love that's real One they can feel One that's deep inside That they can no longer hide It's gotta be real love Gotta be love Or there's no sense in wastin' yo time
