It's All Love (History of Funk)

Oh, oh (Oh-oh-oh) Oh, (Oh-oh-oh) oh (Hey, yeah) (Oh-oh-oh) Oh, (Oh-oh-oh) oh (Let's go) Yeah, yeah, uh [Verse 1: Anderson .Paak] We started off a team Party 'til we fall asleep Even on the street, when we disagreed We did it on beat (Did it on beat) Expected unique (Right), anything less, it was weak The music of the strings made life complete (Facts) 'Til that one day they changed everything The Pop Trolls started snatchin' up all of the strings (Oh no) Put the melodies on top of poppy lil' beats They cut us out of the scene And then forgot what it really means (Not even publish us) Shoulda seen between all of the scheming It seems like the Trolls they stole from were meaningless Walkin' around like they were the geniuses But it's only samples, autotune and remixes (No, lawd) I'm a vegan, I don't have no beef with them (No, lawd) Gotta protect my kingdom But the dream is to sing again (Yes, yes) Being friends, seamless blend Harmony ain't hard when the keys within you win [Chorus: Anderson .Paak] First, it was all love (At first, it was all love) Hands up, super star love (Stars up) That you can have it, you can have it all, love (And you can get it how you want) But then you took it, took it all, love (They took it all) All, love Turn it up louder (Turn the music up louder) Sing along, get the crowd up (Get the crowd up, come on) But then you took it all, love (Took it all, love) Then forgot all about us (Oh), but it's all love [Post-Chorus: Anderson .Paak & Mary J. Blige] I feel you Sounds good in my ear when I hear it like that I feel you I say I look good to the mirror and it says it right back I feel you A little love wouldn't kill you You really did me wrong, it was real cruel (It was real cruel) Had a lot of love and I still do 'cause I feel you [Outro: Anderson .Paak] Next morning, the elders were on me (Man) They saw the warning signs, couldn't ignore it (Look) Had to figure out how to save the way of life they had made So they made a play The Pop Trolls were comin' for it all (Ah, ah) All for one and one for all (Ah) So the only way we saw, how we saw it It was one thing left to be done (What?) Each leader grabbed a single string and said, "Run!"
