The Dream of Martin Luther King

Man has lived a hard life While trying to live free Voting and living in fine Houses never intended to be Somehow treated badly while Others took away their families Rosa Parks wanted her rights In Montgomery Alabama God knew the struggle that Man always endured in life Beating half to death And crying in the night They took away their daughters And used them to satisfy lust The only way to survive is To do what they must Many long years have passed And many rivers they crossed Some of them were saved But most of them were lost Abraham Lincoln through God he freed the slaves But somehow along the way They lost a lot of braves With his headquarters in Atlanta Georgia arose Dr. King Now they can began To let freedom ring With the dream that he had To unite every nation together So their children could walk Hand-in-hand in a land He tried to make better Dr. King spoke of peace Didn't believe in a gun or knife He wanted freedom for everyone To live a better life His dreams foresees All nations of children walking Hand in hand A better future, a better life Was always Dr. King’s plan He said I've been to the mountain top And I've viewed the promise land I may not get there with you For this is God’s plan I don’t want you to cry or Mention the honors that I received But speak of how I've helped this Nation and tried to supply their needs Like most people, Dr. King Wanted to live a long life He knew he had to work swiftly To win this holy fight January 15, 1929 marks the Birth of a righteous man April 4, 1968 he was Taken from this land A single shot, a life have fallen And taken from his family He believed in the movement That started in Alabama Because of his dream for Everyone in this world He willingly gave his life And wanted every nation To seek peace, And try hard to love Now we look back at all The struggles of Dr. King And we see a somewhat better nation Because of this man’s Dream!!!
