Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

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 (we love 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 (we love 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
