Gil Scott-Heron - You Could Be My Brother Lyrics

Lyrics You Could Be My Brother - Gil Scott-Heron



You could be my brother
And I ain′t talking about short term
Something in your eyes
Something that tells me that you see it all
And wouldn't you like to see
A place where children freely run and play?
And wouldn′t you like to see
A place where every man can have a say?
And wouldn't you like to see
A space and time exist where all men can truly be free?
Yes, well that's a lot like me
You could be my brother
You could be my brother
And I ain′t talking about rich at all
′Cause once you start sharing
You always feel somehow that you got all
And wouldn't you like to feel
There be folks they′re with you when you make your stand
And wouldn't you like to feel
You′ll hold your destiny in your own hands
And wouldn't you like to feel
There′s enough respect out there for each and every man
Yes, well don't you understand
You could be my brother
Well wouldn't you like to see
A place where children freely run and play?
Yes, and wouldn′t you like to see
A place where every man can have a say?
Well wouldn′t you like to see
A space and time exist where all men could truly be free?
Yeah, that's a lot like me
Yes, that′s a lot like me
Well and wouldn't you be
You could be my brother
You could be my brother
You could be my brother
You could, you could
You could, you could
You could, you could be my brother
