(Yeah, yeah, yeah )
(Woah, woah, woah )
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, like is it real
Is everything you told me how you feel?
Like what's the deal?
You spending money crazy
Want that new Mercedes
You still looking for the love from the 80s
But you can't seem to find it baby
We hit the club in a limo
You just wanna feel special
Working everyday and you need a night to let go
You know that you the one that niggas check for
But I don't want no call on my phone up at 3am
That don't mean a damn
You switching sides go and be with 'em
You ain't on the team if you ain't trynna win
And I've been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
And I been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
Yeah I see you coming back to me
Thinking that I'm running back casually
Tell your friends that your mad at me
This ain't never what it had to be
But it's funny how the times change
Last week you were screaming out my name
Now you're speaking on my name
Squeezing in hate in your timeframe
I wish you well
You told me you was crawling out of hell
Told me bout your fears
That you scared to fail
Told if you see me with shorty she getting killed
You got some issues I do too
Everyday you in a brand new mood
We do this dance to the same old tune
Trynna make space for you but there ain't no room
And I've been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
And I been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
Could never find it
Guess I always miss the timing
Old shorties talking to me now no rewinding
You want a ring you want a diamond
You trynna recreate the memories
Repeat the things you said to me
Ain't rocking to the end with me
So why would I waste my energy
The whole plot shaky it really was never meant to be
I got big plots and big plans
I don't really think you fit them
You goin have to sit on the side like a six man
Them other niggas you can go ahead and hit them
This ain't no buy and return
This that get what you earn
This that live and you learn yeah
I brought my light I got bridges to burn
You made a cut and you did it with words
And I've been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
And I been trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is
Trynna find where the love is yeah
The lyrics of K.O.P Vibes's song "Where Is The Love?" delve into the complexities of relationships, self-discovery, and the search for genuine affection. The song opens with a reflection on the authenticity of emotions and expressions shared in a relationship. The singer questions whether the love they were promised is real and wonders about the sincerity behind their partner's actions. The mention of pursuing success as young Black individuals adds layers of societal pressures and aspirations to the narrative.
The lyrics further explore the dynamics of a tumultuous relationship, where material desires and nostalgia for past love intersect with present-day struggles. The singer paints a picture of indulgence and seeking external validation, juxtaposed with the longing for a profound connection reminiscent of a bygone era. The night out in a limo symbolizes a temporary escape from responsibilities, while the hunt for genuine affection remains elusive.
As the song progresses, the disillusionment and changing tides within the relationship become evident. The mention of late-night calls and shifting allegiances highlights the turmoil and uncertainty in the singer's emotional landscape. The lyrics portray a sense of detachment and the struggle to navigate conflicting emotions, as both parties grapple with personal insecurities and unresolved issues.
In the final verses, the singer laments the inability to find lasting love and fulfillment in the relationship. The imagery of missed opportunities, unmet expectations, and the realization of irreconcilable differences underscore the longing for closure and emotional clarity. The decision to prioritize personal growth and ambition over a faltering romance signals a shift towards self-preservation and setting boundaries. The song encapsulates a journey of introspection, resilience, and ultimately, the quest to find where true love resides amidst chaos and self-discovery.

Valuing the lessons gained from life experiences
I brought my light I got bridges to burn
Being unafraid to cut ties and move forward
You made a cut and you did it with words
Ending a connection through communication and actions
