A message from Dr. King
I had a dream
with the world I shared it
that we’d embrace our difference
not run scared of it
please explain it to me
I have nothing but time
how ending the lives of each other
honors the memory of mine
I fought without fists
anger or spite
I called for equality and love
not to spill into the streets and fight
I reached out in peace
extended my hand
hoping to set an example
that would ring throughout the land
yet still we fight
we hate and we label
to see beyond the color of skin
we seem hopelessly unable
I left this earth 50 years ago
but I still watch from above
as my dream remains just that
in the absence of brotherly love
Come together as one
hatred is cowardice
labeling a man by his skin
does not do him justice
it’s never too late
to right this wrong
may we walk and live hand in hand
that will be my victory song
