What if Love Was Free?

Love is a currency
More precious than gold
It's a human necessity
So tell me why do we we withhold?
If love was free
Would I still need to post these selfies
Advertise myself and compete
With all of the other girls who just want to be like me

If love was free
Would I still need to be
Standing here trying to look like a Barbie
Sitting here trying to keep count of calories
Tryna' keep up
Got me working like crazy
Spending all my money on the latest new trends
I'd rather cash it in and get paid with attention
Gimme likes and the mentions

Lonely hearts are a target
Our need for love fuels the markets
They're sitting over there filling up their pockets
From our insecurities
Got me wondering if love was free
Would they still profit
From all the things we do for love?

For love
All the things we do for love
All the things we do for love
All the things we do for love

Why do we fail to see
That the last shall be first
We're too busy judging our brother
By the job that he works
If love was free
Would He still need to live for ego
Tryna prove to all the people
He's more than the other guy
But only the fittest survive
To be loved
And can't you see that we reward love
To the most fine
No, let 'em see your flaws
Or you'll be denied
Whoever made these laws
Is just tryna make a dime
So don't be blind
He spending all this money on a fancy foreign
Pull up with a Benz
Get paid with attention
He wants the likes and the mentions

Lonely hearts are a target
Our need for love fuels the markets
They're sitting over they' filling up their pockets
From our insecurities
Got me wondering if love was free
Would they still profit
From all the things we do for love?

For love
All the things we do for love
All the things we do to earn love
All the things we do
For love

What if love was free?
Flowing like a river
Through all of humanity
Reaching souls unhindered
From the mountains to the sea
Softening our hearts
And comforting our every need
For every nation, tongue, and creed

What if love was free?
Flowing like a river
Through all of humanity
Reaching souls unhindered
From the mountains to the sea
Softening our hearts
And comforting our every need
For every nation, tongue, and creed

Yeah the day when love is free
That will be the day
When so are we
Oh Oh
That will be the day
I said the day when love is free
That will be the day when so are we
For GOD so loved the world
That HE gave Himself for you and me
HE gave with no contingency
HE gave Himself
Oh HE gave His love for free

I don't know about you
But as for me
I receive it
