(Verse 1: MDMA) Living in your shadow But yet the sun won't shine your way I can feel your sorrow It turns into your pain They say it's not in vain To the children of the corner Going hungry everyday When nobody asked to be here They just want to play It makes me want to say
La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry If it was up to me I would wipe them from your eye I hate to see the world cry
(Verse 2: Jah Cure) They spend up all our money (ay) All the rockets in the sky (whoa) When they don't have a reason That generate a lie For the strength that's from the time (ay) There's an ordinary city (yeah) From Compton to Mobay (whoa) When they don't ask to be here Since them fall away Makes them want to stay And I said
La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da And I hate to see the whole world cry Yeah I hate to see the whole world cry If it was up to me I would wipe them from your eye Hate to see the whole world cry
(Verse 3: Keri Hilson) Looking in the mirror Sinking in my peace (oh) Everyday is a constant battle Between what's wrong and right I just want to live my life (oh) I pray it's for the future Is that we learn from our mistakes (oh yeah) Halfway into destruction But it's not too late Too late to make a change So I'll say
(Chorus: Keri Hilson, Jah Cure, MDMA) La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da Da La Di Da Da Da And I hate to see the whole world cry (hate to see the world cry) Yeah I Hate to see the whole world cry (hate to see the world cry) If it was up to me I would wipe them from your eyes I hate to see the whole world cry
I don't want to see you cry I don't want to see you cry Somebody help me understand (help me understand) Everybody got a plan
