[Verse 1: Todd Rundgren]
Times as hard as I've ever seen
Money gets scarce and people get mean
You struggle to stay on your own feet but then
You fall down, you sometimes don't get up again

[Chorus: Todd Rundgren]
A brother in need is a brother indeed
The naked to cloth and the hungry to feed
The garden is barren but I'll plant a seed

[Verse 2: Todd Rundgren]
(I got your back)
Pull you out of the gutter and off of the street
(I got your back)
You get the food off my plate, the shoes off my feet
(I got your back)

[Chorus: Todd Rundgren]
A brother in need is a brother indeed
The naked to clothe and the hungry to feed
The garden is barren but I'll plant a seed

[Bridge: DâM-FunK, Todd Rundgren, both]
Alright Dad, let me squeeze into this moment of service. I want to give back too
I know, know that you're humble
But I got to, got to let the world know
(I got your back)
I got your back through all the hard times
Call on me when you're looking for the hard vibes
(I got your back)
When you starve and you're wishing on a star kid
Call on me, no more starving the artist
(I got your back)
Let go, no meat for the pridesome
Pride before the fall and it ain't no fun
(I got your back)
We got a movement going on and its called moving on through the power of truth
I got your back
We'll do, ride on the train through
Through the dark times, nitty gritty too
(I got your back)
We will, we will feed the hungry
People with the soul and they're searching for the wholeness
(I got your back)
Whole foods is the state of my booth
And it starts with a diet made of tailor made truths
(I got your back)

[Outro: Todd Rundgren]
Pull you out of the gutter and off of the street
(I got your back)
A brother in need is a brother indeed
(I got your back)
The naked to clothe and the hungry to feed
(I got your back)
The garden is barren but I'll plant a seed
(I got your back)
