The Pride

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ronald Isley] Politicians come to power, take it slow People need, what you know You're a leader so you have to play along Show the hand, right or wrong When you're feelin' that you know the way to turn Either way, still get burned It's the pride that makes you feel that you belong It's the pride, that keeps you strong [Chorus: Ronald Isley, The Isley Brothers] Don't you think it's fascinating? Yeah, yeah, yeah Don't you think it's fascinating? It's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) It's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) [Verse 2: Ronald Isley] What makes you want to do the best you can? What makes you, a better man? What makes you try again before too long? What keeps you, standing strong? What makes you say the things you wanna say To make it a better day? It's the pride that makes you feel that you belong It's the pride that keeps you strong [Chorus: Ronald Isley, The Isley Brothers] Don't you think it's fascinating? Yeah, yeah Don't you think it's fascinating? Oh, oh, oh It's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) It's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down it s the pride) Oh, it's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) When you finally break it all down, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) Oh, it's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) When you finally break it all down, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) Oh, it's the pride that you feel, it's the pride (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) (When you finally break it all down, it's the pride) [Instrumental break] [Outro: The Isley Brothers] When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride When you finally break it all down, it's the pride
