Curtis Mayfield I Plan To Stay A Believer


I Plan To Stay A Believer
I Plan To Stay A Believer
I Met A Frlend Of Mine The Other Day
He Said He Couldn't Stay
Because The World Was Going To End
At The End Of May.
Well, May Done Passed,
And EveryBody Still Sittin Here On Their Ass.
With Some Talk,
They're Now Waiting For The Judgment Day.

But Why Wait,
Why Don't You Look Around,
Haven't You Found,
That The Judgment Day
Is Already In Play,
For The Black,
And Now Come Time,
For The Old Faye
And I Plan To Stay A Believer

I Plan To Stay A Believer
I Plan To Stay A Believer

I Got An Indian Friend
Who Says He's Some Kin To Another Indian,
He says He's Filled With Hate
Because His Tribe They Waited Too Late
To Protest The Past
Instead They Just Sat There On Their Ass,
Signing On The Dotted Line,
When They Didn't Have Indian Lawyers At That Time.

We're Over 20 Million Strong
And It Wouldn't Take Long
To Save The Ghetto Child,
If We'd Get Off Our Ass,
$10 A Man Yearly
Think Awhile
20 Million Times 10 Yearly
Would Surely Then Set Our Brothers Free
What Congregation With Better Relations
Would Demand More Respect From Society...

I Plan To Stay A Believer
I Plan To Stay A Believer
I Plan To Stay A Believer
