[Lyric] Cheer Up Black Man (Morvin Brooks)

[Verse 1]
Over the years black people been living in pain
And over the years we all been feeling the strain
But, the time has come when we all must see the light
We've been buried down here in the dark for so long
Martin Luther been preaching about humanity (It is true)
Marcus Garvey been preaching about equality
Weakheart did not love to hear that kind a men talk (Oh, no)
They congregate and sound like dogs that bark

[Chorus]
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one (I say)

[Verse 2]
Over the years black people been living in pain
And over the years we all been feeling the strain
But, the time has come when we all must see the light
We've been buried down here in the dark for so long
(Sing it to me now)
[Chorus]
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one

[Outro]
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one
Cheer up black man, you know the battle is won
Cheer up black man, you know we all are one
