A Prayer for Everybody / To Be Free by Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson Lyrics

Quote from the song “A Prayer for Everybody / To Be Free” by Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson

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 all may see
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 scoff 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?

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 all may see
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 scoff 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?

[Verse 2: Gil Scott-Heron]

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 scoff 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?
