Curtis Mayfield - Right on For the Darkness Lyrics

Lyrics Right on For the Darkness - Curtis Mayfield



I am blind and I cannot see
You are there, your petty evil don't bother me
Playing all the clothes you wear
Laugh at me, pressed and clean, and I don't care
Right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
You pity fools, you pity fools
You better have some sympathy, yeah
'Cause there's educated people
Running the lives of our society
Making up the rules
Holding back schools
Lot of greed, lot of temptation
Proof of one thing, we're a hell of a nation
Right on for the darkness
Right on, right on
Right on, right on
Right on, right on
Right on, right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
I am blind and I can't see
What do we need for justice
Is there really enough room to demand?
Old man you know too much
Regain all your children's trust
Right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
Right on, right on
Right on for the darkness
Right on
What a messy world of tears
Through their eyes, is everyone will see
I can hear the people's fears
Woah, warm love's everywhere to me
Right on for the darkness
Right on, right on
Right on for the darkness
I am blind and I cannot see
You are there, your petty evil don't bother me
Playing all the clothes you wear
Laugh at me, pressed and clean, and I don't care
Right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
Right on for the darkness
