Brian Jackson, Gil Scott-Heron - Ain’t No Such Thing As Superman lyrics
[Brian Jackson, Gil Scott-Heron - Ain’t No Such Thing As Superman lyrics]
You have understood, world
The riddles of the ages
Yes, and you have understood
The universal mind
You have placed your footprints on
The everlasting sands of time
Yes, so tell me why can't you understand
That there ain't no such
Thing as a Superman?
There ain't no such thing as a Superman
You was on the Nile
You went to see great Egypt fall
It fell down to the ground
Yes, and you was out there on the
Corner when being cool went blind
Are you alone? Understand that
If we’re gonna win
We've got to get together
Stay together, be together, stick together
So tell me why can't you understand
That there ain't no such
Thing as a Superman?
There ain't no such thing as a Superman
You alone consider mercy after it seemed
Like all you get is pain
It seemed to me that you have found
The courage that others could not find
You alone have the wisdom to take this
World and make it what it
Need to be, want to be, will be someday
You'll see the day, the day you understand
Why there ain't no such thing as a Superman
There ain't no such thing as
A Superman there ain't no
"I can fly like no bird in
The sky" There ain't no
"I can fly like no bird in
The sky" There ain't no
"Are you gonna get yours?" Something like
"I’ve got mine" There ain’t no
There ain’t no, there ain’t no
There ain’t no
There ain’t no, there ain’t no Superman
There ain’t no Superman
The riddles of the ages
Yes, and you have understood
The universal mind
You have placed your footprints on
The everlasting sands of time
Yes, so tell me why can't you understand
That there ain't no such
Thing as a Superman?
There ain't no such thing as a Superman
You was on the Nile
You went to see great Egypt fall
It fell down to the ground
Yes, and you was out there on the
Corner when being cool went blind
Are you alone? Understand that
If we’re gonna win
We've got to get together
Stay together, be together, stick together
So tell me why can't you understand
That there ain't no such
Thing as a Superman?
There ain't no such thing as a Superman
You alone consider mercy after it seemed
Like all you get is pain
It seemed to me that you have found
The courage that others could not find
You alone have the wisdom to take this
World and make it what it
Need to be, want to be, will be someday
You'll see the day, the day you understand
Why there ain't no such thing as a Superman
There ain't no such thing as
A Superman there ain't no
"I can fly like no bird in
The sky" There ain't no
"I can fly like no bird in
The sky" There ain't no
"Are you gonna get yours?" Something like
"I’ve got mine" There ain’t no
There ain’t no, there ain’t no
There ain’t no
There ain’t no, there ain’t no Superman
There ain’t no Superman
