Super Fly is a 1972 blaxploitation, crime drama film directed by Gordon Parks, Jr., starring Ron O'Neal as Youngblood Priest, an African American cocaine dealer who is trying to quit the underworld drug business.
This film is probably best known for its soundtrack, written and produced by soul singer Curtis Mayfield. Super Fly is one of the few films ever to have been outgrossed by its soundtrack.
Leading man O'Neal reprised his role as Youngblood Priest and directed a sequel to the film that was released a year later in 1973, Super Fly T.N.T. Super Fly producer Sig Shore directed a second sequel in 1990, The Return of Superfly.
Youngblood Priest (Ron O'Neal) is an up-and-coming cocaine dealer in New York City. On his way to a meeting point in Harlem early one morning he is mugged by two junkies. Priest beats one up and gives chase to the other, beating him until he gets the money back. Afterwards, Fat Freddie and Nate Adams, Priest's main dealers, turn up at his apartment to make their payments. Later that night, Priest and Eddie arrive at Scatter's restaurant. The pair then goes on to sell a kilo of cocaine. Priest and Eddie arrive in a bar in Harlem to meet a potential buyer. While they are waiting, three black activists approach them and try to shake Priest down. Priest demands they leave. Their buyer arrives, samples the cocaine and agrees to make a deal.

you mounted me masterpiece
in your grand entrance hall
prologue to the moment when
i knocked myself right off that wall
unhappy i get fat
and i'm not smiling now
i'm a bug trapped in a spider's web
he's licking his chops, he's shaking his head
oh...
there goes my dream
it grew some wings
you opened up that window - hey
all the hopes of me
things i wish i'd see
they flew away
starting to wonder
wonder if i'm able to love again
don't you come near me
i'm very dangerous
you'll walk away with a black eye and two broken legs
oh...
there goes my dream
it grew some wings
you opened up that window - hey
all the hopes of me
things i wish i'd see
they flew away
there goes my dream
it grew some wings
there goes my dreamthere goes my dream
it grew some wings
it grew some wingsthere goes my dream
it grew some wings
superfly with no goodbye
oh...
there goes my dream
it grew some wings
you opened up that window
all the hopes of me, things i wish i'd see
they flew away
