Destiny’s Child/Britney Spears:
(First Chorus)
Oh what’s going on
What’s going on
Yeah what’s going on
Ahh what’s going on

Ja Rule:
What’s going on in a world filled with pain
Where’s the love for which we pray
What’s going on
When our children can’t play
Homeless can’t eat
There’s got to be a better way
What’s going on
When we politically blind
Can’t see the signs of endangered times
What’s going on

Nelly Furtado:
Ah tell me
What’s going on in the world today

Than turn my head away

Nelly:
What’s going on ‘cross seas
Every minute a child dies by this disease
In record numbers indeed
Got momma’s crying out please
My baby hold on
My child ain’t done nothing wrong
Still I want to holler
Ask them why they don’t bother
Oh no, oh no
Make me turn to my father
And ask him why they all got a trapped soul

Nas:
I can feel what was bothering Marvin
Why his words forever remain
Dealing with these modern day problems
‘Cause of ignorance surrounding me and my constituents
Too many infected
Too many lives diminishing
Nobody say Protestants, Jews, Blacks, and Whites, Latinos and Asians
Pray together
Less fight
We better unite
As genocide chemical war
And the rich and the poor
Know that God delivers a cure

Eve:
It’s a shame our reality is devastating
People praying for a cure
Dying while they’re waiting
Ask the Lord for the comfort and strength to face it
All the kids with dreams
Won’t get the chance to chase it
Makes me sad
Think about the lives they would’ve had
Think about the orphan babies got no moms and dads
How can we sit back and not try to make it right
We gotta come together
We gotta fight for life

Fred Durst:
Somebody tell me what’s going on
(what’s going on)
We got human beings using humans for a bomb
But everyone wanna live
Don’t nobody really want to die
You feeling me right
I can’t be watching people die

What’s Going On (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Verse 1: mike g

It’s a cryin’ shame, brothers takin’ life as a game
Growing up against the law, but no-one knows who’s to blame
Dealin’ drugs on the corner, you don’t have to, but you wanna
A meal is hard to make, but you tell yourself you’re gonna
Dealing 12 to 12, day into evening
I wonder how you continue to be grieving
Your meal is made and it’s time to chill
You buy the black mercedes benz with the gold to the grill
Cruisin’ up the ave while your friends get jealous
You find out, you quickly get restless
You buy a gun, it doesn’t help but hurt you
Because your so-called friend rattled on you
You’re in the pen serving 10 to 20
Your boy snatched your girl and put use to your money
You’re out for teen, but what does it mean?
You’re just a wasted, young brother who lost it all on a dream

Chorus: (sampled from what’s going on by marvin gaye)
What’s goin’ on, i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Yeah, what’s goin’ on, i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i

Verse 2: afrika, mike g

My blood brother is bleeding, it’s a cryin’ shame
Out on the street tryin’ to play the game
Formally an in-mate straight from upstate
Can’t stop him now ‘cause you see it’s just too late
He’s on the run and he’s got a gun
Stay out his way unless you want some
See, he’s gettin’ older, a bit more bolder
Got his name written up in the 5-0 folder
A big christmas list of all the crime’s he’s committed
He says he didn’t do it, but we know he did it
Summons his lawyers, fingerprints, bung shots
Lookin’ for my brother, yo, he’s at the drug spots
Livin’ off that cheap chinese food
He says he only bumps the people when he’s in the mood
Runnin’ ‘round with his crews and his 2-2’s
I saw him last night in the prime time news
Shot and killed by a
His birth to the earth was a big mistake

Now, history was not my favourite subject
I used to flip through the pages and get upset
Seein’ little of black and too much of the other
(they tried to brainwash you) picture that, a jungle brother
Read this, read that, answer question 3
But when i got to 3, it had nothin’ to do with me
Somethin’ was wrong, and i knew it all along
Now tell me (please) what’s goin’ on

Repeat chorus

Verse 3: afrika, mike g

A: now, i’ve been told all the do’s and don’t-do-not’s
My mother, hallelujah, she called the shots
She said, "don’t play with guns and play with knives
And most of all, don’t play with other people’s wives
When you’re walkin’ down the street, pay the pushers no mind
‘cause all they wanna do is put your mind on cloud nine
Put your head up high and your feet on the ground
You don’t have to be like everybody else to be down
Stay in school
G: don’t be no fool
A: don’t lose your temper
G: and keep your cool
A: follow your heart
G: and not your friends
A: and some of your friends
G: could lead you into dead ends"
A: the other day my father said, "son, god bless your soul
Our life is gettin’ tougher and the world is cold"
I said, "daddy, daddy, daddy, what do you mean?" he said,
G: "you ain’t got nothin’ ‘less you got the green"
A: i realise to myself things are gonna be hard
So each and every day i pray to god
I say, "now i lay me down to sleep
G: i give the lord my soul to keep
A: if i should die before i wake
G: take me to heaven ‘cause i need a break
A: but if you let me live to another morn
G: i’d like to know what’s goin’ on

Chorus 2:

What’s goin’ on, i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Tell me what’s goin’ on, i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i

What’s Going On (Letra)

How time lfies when you’re biting your lip ‘til it hurts
Going over and over the same old things in your mind, oh my
Hours gone by and hours yet to go
Just what i’m waiting for, i don’t really know
But then there’s you

You know what’s going on
You know what’s taking place
It’s only me that’s lost in space

Spin me around yes, give me more of your lies
Give me the gospel according to you
And that’s fine by me
I’m sure that i’m wrong and all is not what it seems
But a hundred to one says you
Give the same old lines to me
But then that’s you

You know what’s going on…

In every good story there’s always a twist in the tale
So there’s a note on your door that i really feel sure
Will make your face go pale

You know what’s going on…

What’s Going On? (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

What’s going on?

What’s happening, it’s been so long, what’s going on
And what’s going wrong? the good old days are gone
You forgot your plot and your plans as a young man
You invented a scam even you don’t understand
You rig the enigma, can’t figure it out
You change the route, now you’re in doubt
You use to cut class, smoked grass, still passed,
Figured you was all that but that ain’t last;
The times is harder, the drugs is heavier
You say whatever, the more, the merrier;
Smoke chokes your dreams and blurs your scenes,
Now a young man fiend change his plan to schemes;
No more good times, no more time,
Too far to find, you’re almost blind,
You can’t see what spot that the trap is in…
(hey bra!)what’s happening!
You had it mapped out, your plans get torn,
You stayed up for days and now your dreams are gone
You said you quit, stated your word is bond
(hey bro) what’s going on?

What’s going on?

My neighborhood don’t look so good
I’ll find a way out.. yeah, i would if i could,
But the government is doing a project…
So i live in the projects;
Where we fight for elbow room to the doom,
Try to live long but you die too soon,
I might not be alive to see 25,
Taught at ten to make money and strive;
I sold tapes at school and made some ends
Met alot of skins and even made some friends,
Cool, ‘cause now i got a crew to run wit,
Break a couple of rules, have crazy fun wit;
But every now and then, they give my knuckle game a test,
But i won’t fess, i just get rid of the stress!
And then shake hands like a man,
‘cause it’s a family thing, only the crew would understand!
But you had a one on one fight wit drugs,
When we ain’t cool no more, we buss slugs,
Clip after clip, until one of us is gone…
(hey bra!) what’s going on?

Yo, what’s going on?

The crime rate in new york state elevate,
A city filled wit hate, more deaths accumulate,
Drug wars daily, alot of blood spilt,
Kids on the playground shot down and kilt!
Nobody wants to live on the 1st floor no more…
‘cause stray bullets explore!
We’re killing ourselves off slowly but surely,
And at the end of the year, i’m sure many more’ll be
Rubbed out in a quest for clout
The rest’ll be drugged out, this is bugged out!
Half of the projects is dead or locked up,
Kids getting kidnapped and then found chopped up.
Human abortion create distortions…
And that’s just a portion, you know that we’re lost when
Babies are addicted to drugs when they are born….!
(hey bra!) what’s going on? (3x)

Giorgio moroder/pete belotte
(from the soudtrack of "metropolis", 1984)

Is there a mask behind the face
Is it a sleeveless ace
Can a smile conceal a sneer
How do we see clear

What makes the truth curl up and lie
Is it the fly-by-night
If the counterfeit’s the sham
How do we all stand
The deeper we put in the problem – the less we know

What’s going on
I wanna know
What’s going on

Remember all the cracks you feared
Beneath the clear veneer
Well, now they’re bursting wide apart
And this is just the start
How does it feel to lose control – lose your goal
So who’s a friend and who’s a foe – time to show

What’s going on
I wanna know
What’s going on

"What’s.. what’s.."
"What’s going on? What’s going on?" (4X)

[Canibus]
The club scene is a regular hangout spot for unclean
women in tight jeans frontin like queens
Chickenheads who should be home takin care of their eggs
Instead, they always in the club flirtin with men
No I don’t care about no hype-no-holic bitches; all I’m concerned with
is who’s bringin they burners in to burn niggaz
While security practice is mediocre proportions
Niggaz is still stealthily sneakin they firearms in
Often, niggaz be acting like they’re marksmen
but couldn’t hit a stationary object
So how you gonna hit a movin target? Especially if you alcoholic
The party was coconuts until you spoiled it
Nigga what’s goin on?

Chorus: Canibus + samples

"What’s going on? What’s going on?"
[Can] What’s goin on these days?
[Can] Can’t do no hip-hop shows without the gunplay
"What’s going on? What’s going on?"
[Can] What’s goin on? Why is everybody packin?
"While you rappin, I’m busy tryin to sneak the gat in" -> Havoc
"What’s going on? What’s going on?"
[Can] What’s goin on these days?
Can’t do no hip-hop shows without the gunplay
"What’s going on? What’s going on?"
[Can] Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake
"You got a gun up in your waist, please don’t shoot up the place" -> Biggie

[Canibus]
Aiyyo
The other night I seen some kid gettin loud, runnin his mouth
Til somebody pulled the thang-thang out, then shots rang out
This nigga in front of me got his back blown out
On the floor with a piece of his small intestines hangin out
I had to scream on the bouncers to carry him out
They said, "Nah, them niggaz is still bustin in the crowd"
Then they ducked down close to the ground as the bullets whizzed by
Prayin to Allah cause they don’t wanna die
But neither do I, fuck it, I gotta be here
As a rap artist, it’s a vital part of my career
I swear, y’all niggaz need to chill with that
Bringing your handguns to every God damn club I perform at
Everything from semi-autos to macs
Chrome or black, plastic gats and all that
Believe it or not – the government wants that
So they can use that as an excuse to shut down rap
What’s goin on?

Chorus

[Canibus]
Yo
All of my hip-hop niggaz should feel what I’m speakin upon
A subject that was touched by Nas and Pharoahe Monch
Bullets – bein shot from guns, guns bein carried by thugs
who come to the clubs to shed blood
Bear in mind, that everytime a nigga reaches for chrome
he jeopardizes more lives than his own
To some this record ain’t even relevant until you experience
how a bullet can shatter your dreams in a millisec’
By some thug cats who didn’t take that
by bustin a gat, they could render somebody handicapped
and trapped, in a wheelchair over nothin
With the gift of walkin and runnin snatched from them
What the fuck is goin on?

Chorus 2X (to fade)

Just another day. Seems like everybody’s, got a problem.
And you don’t know how but, we all wanna solve ‘em.
And you can give a dime, give a hand, give a shit.
Or you could look away and never deal with it.

For example, this girl’s pretty fly for a while gal.
And all the guys want her though she’s a juvenile.
It’s really kinda sad, and just don’t care, cuz the only one she wants is her best friend Claire.

(CHORUS)

What’s going on, what’s going on? Ready or not? (not)
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on and on. . . yo what’s going on?

There’s nothing much to me. I’m simple like you, ordinary.
My tired eyes can see, that time that may fly and what’s left is meant to be.

And I’m lookin’ out, and you’re lookin’ in.
It’s takin’ more than time to erase the stain.
And it’s never been the same.

Any city. A girl turns 17. She goes to a party.
She and her girls are drinkin’ Bicardi ever since they walked through the door.
All the guys have been scopin’ and flexin’ trying to score.
But she’s a good girl, so she won’t have none of that.
She takes another sip, but she has no clue, of the spike from the G to tha H to the B.
She wakes up in the morning bruised, raped on the street.

What’s going on, what’s going on? Ready or not? (not)
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on and on. . . yo what’s going on?

(CHORUS)

Your town. Every kid that you know goes to school.
He’s really kinda shy and he’s not that cool.
He knows what it’s like to look in from the outside, inside, wants someone to confide.
Everyone’s busy, no one’s got the time.
He takes his dad’s gun and says this is how I’ll shine.
BOOM BOOM BOOM, and the kids fall down on the ground . . . dumbfound.

What’s going on, what’s going on? Ready or not? (not)
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on and on. . . yo what’s going on?

(CHORUS)

Just another day

Seems like everybody’s got a problem
No one knows how
But, we all want to solve ‘em
You could give a dime, give a hand
Or give a shit or could look away and never deal with it
For example, this girl is pretty fly for a white gal
All the guys want her even though she’s a juvenite
She’s really kinda sad and just don’t care
‘Cause the only one she wants is her best friend Claire

What’s going on? What’s going on?
Ready or not, NOT
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on and on
Yo, what’s going on?

There’s nothing much to me
I’m simple like you simple like you are, ordinary
My tired eyes can see that time may fly
And what’s left is meant to be
I’m looking out and you’re looking in
It’s taken more then time to erase the stain
And it’s never been the same

Any city, a girl turns 17, she goes to a party
She and her girls are drinking bacardi
Ever since she walked through the door
All the guys have been flexing tryin’ to score
But she’s a good girl so she won’t have none of that
She takes another sip
But has no clue of the spike from the G to the H to the B
She wakes up in the morning
Bruised and raped in the street

Ready or not, NOT
The world moves on and on and on and on and on and on and on

My tired eyes can see that time may fly
And what’s left is meant to be
And I’m looking out and you’re looking in
It’s taken more then time to erase the stain
And it’s never been the same

In a small town, a kid that you know goes to school
He’s really kinda shy and he’s not that cool
He knows what it’s like to look in from the outside
Inside, he just wants someone to confide
But everyone’s busy and no one’s got the time
He takes his dad’s gun and says "This is how I’ll shine"
Boom, boom, boom and the kids fall down on the ground
Dumbfound

And it’s never been the same
I’m looking out and you’re looking in
It’s taken more then time to erase the stain
And it’s never been the same

Do you see heaven
Like i do
Or is it just me
Wanting you

Tonight i’m special
Like no one else
I hope you need me
For yourself

Does it make you happy
To be so free
The times we shared
You loving me

And as you leave
And walk away
Your eyes they tell me
Someday you’ll stay

What’s going on here
What must we fear
To live in this fantasyland in your mind
Who’ll carry the load
For dreams left untold
Can you live in this world all mine

I would walk this journey
To say goodbye
To have you close would
Make me high

All the good things
That made you see
It was the strong thing
Being with me

Chorus

Just look high above
And you’ll see where we should be
And if tomorrow makes
If tomorrow breaks us

Then you stand still and i’ll
Show you me

Like you never knew
Or is it just me
Wanting you
So as you leave
And walk away
I knew you’d come back
Now let’s play

Chorus
