Lyrics

Beautiful brother of mine Whatever may be your birth sign We are not of the same seed Although we are both the same breed Together we're truly black power (power) Learning to trust by the hour Loving our women now more (we love more) Respecting what black is now for And we've got love We've got love We've got love (we've got love) We've got love (we got love) Beautiful sister of mine I'm glad we both think it's now time To really show what we can do And prove that black pride is now true At last we've outgrown all the talk (all the talk) Devoting more time in the song (in the song) Showing off all the new pride (the new pride) That makes us feel all good inside And we've got love We've got love We've got love (we got love) (We got love) At last the mask of greed Asked her how we wanna be With love, respect and pride Success will be on our side, side At last we're now on the right place Inspiring the young of our race Pushing all opposition out Success is not without doubt Beautiful brother of mine Whatever may be your birth sign We are not of the same seed Although we are both the same breed Together we're truly black power (power) Learning to trust by the hour Loving our women now more (we love more) Respecting what black is now for And we've got love We've got love We've got love (we got love) We've got it (we've got love) With centuries ago (we got love) Few people would know (we got love) That we, the strong black (we got love) Would survive the attack (we got love) After pain, finally (we got love) Set out to be free (we got love) Now what have we got (we got love) We got it (we got love) We got it (we got love) We got it (we got love) We've got love We've got love We've got love (we got love) We've got it (we've got love) Beautiful sister of mine I'm glad we both think it's now time To really show what we can do And prove that black pride is now true At last we've outgrown all the talk (all the talk) Devoting more time in the song (in the song) Teaching of all the new pride (we have pride) That makes us feel all good inside And we've got love We've got love We've got love (we've got love) (We've got love) We've got love (we've got love) (We've got love) We've got it (we've got love) (We've got love) We got it (we've got love) We got it
