World Cry

[Verse 1: MCMD]
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
[Chorus:]
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
[Chorus:]
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, MCMD]
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
