Woke up this morning
Somebody on the news
Was Saying
Somebody got shot
Killed by the cops
Shot by the neighborhood watch
Woke up this morning
The newspaper was saying
Food's killing brains
Stars getting slain
Coronavirus insane
They just keep on hating
We just on grinding
They just keep debating
Brothers keep on dying

I love you
No matter what's going on
I love you
No matter what's going on

Woke up this morning
Somebody on the gram
Was saying
The rich staying rich
The poor staying poor
Might go to nuclear war
Woke up this morning
Somebody on my time-line
Saying
Politicians not being honest
Not giving people
What they promised
They just keep on hating
We just on grinding
They just keep debating
Children keep on dying
And what about the sisters

I love you
No matter what's going on
I love you
No matter what's going on

Love
For The Most High
Love
For my wife
Love
For my children
Love
For my Father
Love
For my Mother
Love
For my brother yeah
Love
For my sister
Love
For my friends
Love
For my strangers
Love
For creation
Love
For the future




Love
For the past

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Zaki's song "No" address the feelings of frustration and helplessness in the face of constant negativity in the news and on social media. The song opens with the singer waking up and hearing about someone who was shot and killed by the police or neighborhood watch. The news continues with stories about the harmful effects of food, celebrities dying, and the coronavirus pandemic. Despite all of this negativity, Zaki emphasizes that love is still present and urges listeners to focus on the positive things in their lives.


The second verse of the song reflects on the state of society and politics. Zaki references the inequality between the rich and poor, the possibility of nuclear war, dishonest politicians, and the continued loss of life, particularly among children. Despite these issues, the singer once again emphasizes the power of love to overcome the negativity.


The chorus of the song is a simple yet powerful declaration of love. Zaki repeats the phrase "I love you, no matter what's going on" as a reminder that love can conquer all, even in the midst of chaos and negativity.
