When the world weighs down on you and tries to take you for its fool-
spread the love; it's the only thing to do.
Cause in this life you'll find what you put in will come back in time
So that love will make it back to you.
Look out your window-
what do you see?
Millions of people consumed by greed?
But is it really suprising?
Cause everyone acts in the interest of me
and these actions make us believe we're free
but it blinds us from true reality.
It blinds us from what we really need-
a sense of unity, we not me
If we make this change we will be
so much better off you'll see
When the world weighs down on you and tries to take you for its fool-
spread the love; it's the only thing to do.
Cause in this life you'll find what you put in will come back in time
So that love will make it back to you.
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide,
you come face to face with your problem,
there's no backing down this time.
I really didn't want it to happen this way
but there's not much you can do
when it's standing in your way
and it's there to stay until you overcome one day.
We need to recognize that it's a positive thing
and look at all the benefits that it can bring-
(Look beyond the surface of what you see-
realize we're all just human beings)
So stop looking for answers from above
You will find the answers by spreading around love.
It blinds us from what we really need-
a sense of unity, we not me
If we make this change we will be
so much better off you'll see
When the world weighs down on you and tries to take you for its fool-
spread the love; it's the only thing to do.
Cause in this life you'll find what you put in will come back in time
So that love will make it back to you.
It'll make it back to you, when your time is due.
