So many people, right now
Motivated to do shit, bullshit
Over some bullshit ass reasons
But we 'bout to put it inside of a love perspective likeLove it, we do it all for the love, y'all
Yeah, we do it all for the love, y'all
Weither white, black, Spanish, ain't a thug y'all
We do it, we give it all for the love, y'allWe just givin' it all for the love, y'all
We do it, we do it, all for the love, y'all
We in the party, put your hands up, yeah
Y'all, we do it all for the love, y'all
We do it, we do itLove gettin' down and I love a cool breeze
Love seein' checks from record companies
Love lovin' love 'cause I love what I do
And we do our thing for the one nine twoAnd the rest of the country, 'cause we from there too
Makin' sure love is givin' when I get it from you
Everybody, we regulate the party and shit
Love it when I get a little rugged wit' itLove the circumstance to make my dough flow right
Love rockin' mics plus the ill style nights

She does it real good but love'll make it mo' better
Got me kind of open in the DK sweaterLove when my peoples come home from jail bids
Really love women and I really love kids
Love tight clubs where the music just bang
Camp-ass with gas women or shorty got bangs
Lovin' it, yo yo, I'm lovin' itLove a women when she got a tight outfit
Outfit meaning outlook and disposition
You love it when a nigga cause a love composition
Love peanut butter and jelly on wheatWylin' out, makin' hot shit to hot beats
From Ohio to Poughkeepsie
From Phoenix to NC, from Cali to DCLove it when the pressure falls right on me
Love it when God keeps on overlookin'
Do a tight show, so promoters keep bookin'We do it all for the love, y'all
Yeah, we do it all for the love, y'all
We get the paper but it's still for the love, y'all
From the heart inside of the heart, y'allWe do it, we do it all for the love, y'all
For real, for the love, for the love, y'all
All my peoples in the ghettos, for the love, y'all
All my peoples all around, for the love, y'all
For the love, loveFor my crew's bomb, where my peoples still at
If they call me and I don't call back
For weeks at a time, love is still intact
Let's be big about it, and realize the factLove it, when the underdog comes through
Ghetto revalizer, overthrow these rules
Love it, when I get spared another day
Used to drink zay while my nigga weighed yayLove it, when I gain control over this
Life is really bigger than the Rolly on my wrist
Got a twist to this shit and the answer's inside
Sho as the world's small and the Missisipi's wideHad to rock a vest over unchoosed fest
Now I see people rockin' theirs in jets
Love it when my loved one really hold me down
Brand new flight and I'm takin' off groundWe do it all for the love, y'all
Check it out, we do it all for the love, y'all
For the love, for the love, for the love, y'all
We get the paper but it's still for the love, y'allYo, we do it all for the love, y'all
For everybody, for the love for the love, y'all
Weither white, black, Spanish, ain't a thug, y'all
Yeah, we givin' y'all this shit, the love, y'all
Just the love inside of the heart, y'allYeah, for the love for the love, y'all

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
A Tribe Called Quest was an influential hip hop group of the 1990s, originally formed in Queens, New York City in 1985. The group is composed of Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, and DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad. A fourth member, Jarobi White, was an intermittent collaborator appearing on their first album, but he left the group soon after, although he is mentioned as a 'sometimes' member on their third album liner notes. Along with De La Soul, the group was a central part of the Native Tongues Posse, and enjoyed the most commercial success out of all the groups to emerge from that collective.

Q-Tip and Phife had grown up together in Queens, and met Muhammad in high school. The group's name was coined by The Jungle Brothers, whose members attended the same school. Soon after, the group began performing live and recording on a local label. The group became a part of the Native Tongues family, a Hip-Hop artist collective also consisting of the groups Jungle Brothers, De La Soul and Black Sheep.

At the time of their inception, A Tribe Called Quest was unique within the hip-hop community for eschewing gangsta rap and macho posturing. Their lyrics focused on abstract and social issues such as the word "nigger", date rape and consumerism. Musically, the group helped pioneer the jazz-rap style (along with groups such as Gang Starr and De La Soul). They made their studio debut in 1990 with People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. Though this album was critically acclaimed and lead to a strong fan following, their next album, The Low End Theory (1991) was a massive artistic success, appearing on several best of the year lists. It is considered one of the most important hip-hop albums to date. The Low End Theory was followed by the equally strong Midnight Marauders (1993), while Beats, Rhymes and Life (1996) and The Love Movement (1998) did not meet with as much success.

Following The Love Movement, the group disbanded in 1998. Q-Tip and Phife Dawg went on to pursue solo careers while Muhammad co-founded the R&B group Lucy Pearl.

Recently, there have been rumors of a reunion between the trio, ignited by a spate of group concert apperances around the US, but their most recent appearance was a Bumbershoot, a three-day music festival in Seattle in 2006 and there has been little news of an upcoming album, leading some to believe that the rumors may be unfounded.
