Biografia:
Curtis Mayfield conquistou fama e sucesso no começo da década de 60 como compositor e vocalista do Impressions, grupo que dominou as paradas com os hits 'Gypsy Woman' (1961), 'It's All Right' (1963) e 'People Get Ready' (1965), entre outros. Suas letras alternavam românticas declarações de amor e as primeiras reivindicações sociais e políticas do movimento negro. Isso em um tempo que os cantores de soul não eram os compositores das músicas que cantavam.

Ab Fm Db Bbm
Everybody gather round and listen to my song,
Ab
I've only got one.
Ab Cm
We who are young, should now take a stand,
Fm Eb11
Don't run from the burdens of women and men,
Gb Db
Continue to give, continue to live
Bbm Eb
For what you know is right.
Ab Cm
Most of your life can be out of sight,
Fm Eb11
Withdraw from the darkness and look to the light;
Gb Db
Where everyone's free, 'least that's the way it's
Bbm Eb
Supposed to be.
Db Ab Abmaj7
And we just keep on keeping on

When you have your young, remember this song,
Gb
And our world surrounding, its leaps and and bounds,
Db Bbm Eb
Ups and downs, is reality

Fm Eb11
They can proudly imply that we were an alright guy,

For all the wrong now is right and this nations people united

As one.
