This is one of the most depressing, cynical, fatalistic and, yes, heartless views of humankind that I've ever heard. If this guy really feels this way he needs to hermit himself away in some dark cave.

Why all the ripping on this song?
I like it. I like it a lot.

Sounds like Ulrich Schnauss produced the first bit of this, but the track doesn't really go anywhere, so I have my doubts..

Yet another promising intro devolving into blandness. Probably overly critical, but kinda like smooth jazz that way.

It's an enjoyable/no
I began to think he was singing about the 'Heartless' beings in the SquareEnix/Disney Kingdom Hearts games
I could see this song being used in those games...must...play...less......games...d'oh!!

yeah, same chord progression as in 'See America'.
sing that song over this one and you'll see what i mean.
pretty blatant self-rip-off. |

I'm not gonna accuse G-LP of being substandard, but this segue has got to be fixed. Mr. Gaye deserves better; as soon as it really gets groovin', it's truncated. Please, oh please Bill, put this on your to-do list!
Oh yeah, and keep up the otherwise EXCELLENT work!

Humankind
And the point of my life is what
What if it doesnt add up
And the trouble is all for naught
Chalk it to the state of the world
Revelations are soon forgot
If only human kind was not so heartless now
Heartless now
Its hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil
And the reason of pain is clear
Never learned the lesson of bliss
All the riches to squander here
If only human kind was not so selfish now
Selfish now
Its hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil
And the point of the stars is to shine
Shine a little light in our way
When the fear in my heart leads me blind
Even in the light of the day
Come stumbling out
Oh
If only human kind was not so heartless now
Heartless now
Its hard to love your fellow man
However can I help myself
From harboring such evil

That pretentious album cover and the opening line "And the point of my life is " tells me all I need to know.
