I need a minute, can we get some time?
We both know we don't see eye to eye
I know it's hard on us when we disagree
But don't you think that you and me could take a chance?
And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
I had a dream just the other day
With blinded eyes we let real love guide the way
Nobody felt we had to look the same or talk the game
We found true beauty and we weren't afraid to go ahead
And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to
Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
But she gave me eight to flow and translate
Recalibrate, end all debates
'Cause this bomb is about to drop, y'all
Diverse City just can't be stopped
So here we go, come, check the show
Come one, come all, come overflow with love
Yeah, love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to
Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Go ahead and love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Come on, if Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
"Love Somebody" by Mandisa is a powerful and uplifting song that encourages us to show love and kindness to others. It reminds us that everybody deserves love and that we have the power to make a difference in someone's life.
The song begins with the lyrics, "I need a minute, can we get some time? We both know we don't see eye to eye." This sets the stage for a conversation or a conflict between two individuals. It acknowledges that disagreements and differences of opinion are a part of life, but it also presents an opportunity for growth and understanding.
Mandisa then sings, "I know it's hard on us when we disagree. But don't you think that you and me could take a chance?" This is a powerful reminder that love requires effort and vulnerability. It encourages us to step outside of our comfort zones and extend love even when it's difficult.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of loving somebody and how we can be the ones to make a difference. Mandisa sings, "Somebody needs you. You could be the one to love somebody, take a chance and pass it on. You could be the one to love." These lyrics echo the teachings of Jesus, who emphasized the importance of loving our neighbors as ourselves.
In Matthew 22:37-39, Jesus says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" This verse reminds us that love is not just a feeling, but an action. It is a commandment that we are called to follow.

Nobody felt we had to look the same or talk the game. We found true beauty and we weren't afraid to go ahead." These lyrics remind us that love transcends differences and brings people together.
In Galatians 3:28, the apostle Paul writes, "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
