Gil Scott-Heron - A Prayer for Everybody / To Be Free lyrics

This is a prayer for everybody in the world 'Cause I am you and you are me and we need each other This is a prayer for everybody in the world A prayer for you, a prayer for me A prayer for love and harmony A prayer for life that always seems A prayer that someday we'll all be free 'Cause there's a lot that's wrong We must be strong, and not become bitter If there's a chance that mankind will profit Why should we scuff at something new or old If it will make us better This is a prayer for everybody in the world 'Cause without you and without me Without love and harmony Without courage and dignity What would it mean to be free? Though there's a lot that's wrong We must be strong, and not become bitter If there's a chance that mankind will profit Why should we scuff at something new or old If it will make us better This is a prayer for everybody in the world 'Cause without you and without me Without love and harmony Without courage and dignity What would it mean to be free? What would it mean to be free? To be free? To be free?
