Curtis Mayfield

Beautiful Brother of Mine

Beautiful brother of mine

Whatever may be your birth sign

We are not of the same seed

Although we are both the same breed

Together we're truly black power (power)

Learning to trust by the hour

Loving our women now more (now more)

Respecting what black is now for

And we've got love

We've got love

We've got love (we've got love)

We've got love (we got love)

Beautiful sister of mine

I'm glad we both think it's now time

To really show what we can do

And prove that black pride is now true

At last we've outgrown all the talk (all the talk)

Devoting more time in the song (in the song)

Showing off all the new pride (the new pride)

That makes us feel all good inside

And we've got love

We've got love

We've got love (we got love)

(We got love)

At last the mask of greed

Asked her how we wanna be

With love, respect and pride

Success will be on our side, side

At last we're now on the right place

Inspiring the young of our race

Pushing all opposition out

Success is not without doubt

Beautiful brother of mine

Whatever may be your birth sign

We are not of the same seed

Although we are both the same breed

Together we're truly black power (power)

Learning to trust by the hour

Loving our women now more (now more)

Respecting what black is now for

And we've got love

We've got love

We've got love (we got love)

We've got it (we've got love)

With centuries ago (we got love)

Few people would know (we got love)

That we, the strong black (we got love)

Would survive the attack (we got love)

After pain, finally (we got love)

Set out to be free (we got love)

Now what have we got (we got love)

We got it (we got love)

We got it (we got love)

We got it (we got love)

We've got love

We've got love

We've got love (we got love)

We've got it (we've got love)

Beautiful sister of mine

I'm glad we both think it's now time

To really show what we can do

And prove that black pride is now true

At last we've outgrown all the talk (all the talk)

Devoting more time in the song (in the song)

Teaching of all the new pride (we have pride)

That makes us feel all good inside

And we've got love

We've got love

We've got love (we've got love)

(We've got love)

We've got love (we've got love)

(We've got love)

We've got it (we've got love)

(We've got love)

We got it (we've got love)

We got it
