They try and keep you down

But they don't know, they don't know your dreams

The pride that leps you get throught the day

Something a nickel or a dime can't take away



(Understand love for what it is, and keep it universal)



Yes I know

That you hate what you are

But don't you know

The promised land's not that far

Yes I know

Your pride has gone away

But there's always another day

So I say



Hey brother

I'm never gonna let you down

I'll help you turn it all around

You cn count on me

Hey brother

I'm here because I understand

I'll always treat you like a man

You can count on me

You can count on me



Don't let'em keep you down

Ya gotta try, as hard as it may seem

A victim of a world that's lost its mind

Still the same, you're just like me



(They say love is eternal, but I bet it's longer than that)



Yes I know

That you hate what you are

Don't you know

The promised land's not far

Yes I know

Your life has gone astray

There's always another day

So I say



[repeat chorus]
