Curtis Mayfield - New World Order Lyrics
Darkness no longer, a child is born
Mother shed tears of joy as baby test his lungs
My daddy's not there where he ought to be
Somewhere in Georgia, skinning and shooting craps on his knees
And based on statistics it really ain't all good
Welfare takes the tab and daddy can't sign
And it can't be seen, the family becomes a crime
The hunt is on and brother you're the prey
Serving time in jail, it just ain't the way
I'm living so hard, baby, that my hair is gray
We got to make a change, it's a brand new day
A new world order, a brand new day
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
Operation influx and it's on the way
We've just marched a million plus the other day
Look we all witnessed the sweat rolling down Ms Liberty's head
She knows the sleeping giant is no longer sleeping dead
Oh, what a fulfillment of prophecy
Let us teach the children freedom's never been free
It's okay to cry, go ahead and cry
'Cause Jesus wept but hope and faith he kept
It's a new day
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
The die has been cast and there's no need to fear
'Cause people, the answer to your prayers are here
Sister Mary don't you weep, tell Martha not to moan
We need the love and daddy's coming home
There's no need to worry, the times dictate a plan
Mother Earth's given birth to a brand new man
Sister I know you're misunderstood
But hold on to your man 'cause the future looks good
It's a new day
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
Beware of the lies and false prophecies
We are many with eyes but don't all really see
You must be merciful my friend to obtain the same
So if you break the chain don't pass the blame
We should say unto all and I'll say it again
It's not just to win, shake a hand, make a friend
We who are pure at heart somehow might see
There's still light in the world, come rejoice with me
It's a new day
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
A new world order, a brand new day
A change of mind for the human race
It's a new day, it's a new day
It's a new day, it's a new day
It's a new day
Yes, Lord, it's a brand new day

" Welfare takes the tale / Daddy can't sign / and he can't be seen / and the (Black ) family becomes a crime," --Curtis Mayfield.
2019 and this still brings tears for my fellow humans.

I've been going through the up's and the down's to see the title of this song shook me! I didn't want to hear the song but actually listening to it made me feel a whole lot better inside and out I must say.
Never gave up promoting black people loved his people until death

MERCI BUDDY FOR THIS STUNNG TUNE
Old school Sunday Chi Robert Taylor's 48 Love family and friends God Bless
Excellent !
♥♥♥💔
Mesmerising... rest in peace my brother.
Sounds like Curtis carried the entire planet on his shoulders via his lyrics...
...”NWO, a brand new day, change of mind for the human race”...
Was he referring to evil Papa Bush & cohorts evil globalist NWO or a different one?!
I don't think he meant "new world order" in a negative way lol I mean just listen to the chorus. I know to a lot of conspiracy people NWO is some evil thing but to other people all it means is all the people of the world putting aside our differences and working together towards peace no matter what your skin color or class is.
How u go from this to a dream of a dope boy
The Master Storyteller....RIP Curtis Mayfield. Love you brother.
B1 ADOS FBA'S: REPARATIONS 20/20! NWO

He was so brilliant

He was a legend
He was incredible
He was fly

RIP Curtis! Your word are reverent and relevant!
Definitely, a prophet, are we not livings in the times he talked about. is trump not trying to take us to a NEW WORLD ORDER.

Curtis played a part in the Civil Rights movement the message to "Keep On Pushing" was encouraging to those who dealth with social oppression "Man Oh Man!!!"
How is everyone feeling this everything amen
Everyday banger
I'm here ✌🏽
I love them days where the truth was expressed in Music. Not dissing people or exploting women. What ever happened to good music?
algorithm'd away to the dark recesses of the internet
one word..........JEWS. they have to prevent us from being what we really are because they are impersonating us.
New innovated programs...and the right placement if energy..it has to be the perfect match..
We are going to get work at the appointment time by Our Ancestors....
True majesty Curtis Mayfield the goat..... Beautiful soul let him rest forever and touch all of us for our whole lives
Through this whole recording Curtis had to lay on his back in order to get air to his lungs because of his paralysis.He had to record each sentence one at a time.That takes alot of courage and fortitude.It speaks volumes of this man.True strength.talent and perseverance.Never gave up on what he loved! Making music.And also produced and wrote this album.
Oh wow that's cool
@Joshua Christman Only regret he had that he couldnt play his guitar anymore.But that life force in him made him move on and being the creative person he was created this wonderful album
1 luv from tupelo Mississippi
THIS WAS THE JAM!! Rest In Eternal Peace, Falsetto Musical Legend Mr. Curtis Mayfield. YOUR MUSIC & MESSAGES IN THAT MUSIC WILL LIVE ON FOREVER!!
I thought he passed away in the 70's from a stage accident...???😐
Curtis Mayfield sounds like a human encyclopedia very knowledgeable
d angelo listen to your father curtis !
Rest In Paradise to the True Black Warrior 😢✊.
One of the greatest artist #1
May you rest well in the Arms of The Most High....I thank you for telling me/us their plans.....
A prophet
This and "Here But Gone" touched me so hard still..Got the CD by default as part of a BMG Club thing..(showing my age..lol) and I always dug the old shit but this just caught me in a dark moment and helped to heal..Much love Curtis..
Still getting plenty play in 2018
