Curtis Mayfield's music is taking on an all-new importance in this day and age. In the bio, a look at his 1967 song he recorded with The Impressions, "We're A Winner," which features the lyrics: ⠀
.⠀
"We’re a winner, and never let anybody say⠀
Boy, you can’t make it ’cause a feeble mind is in your way⠀
No more tears do we cry, and we have finally dried our eyes⠀
And we’re movin’ on up"⠀
.⠀
