When Martin Died

When Martin Died - Bren Joy

Lyrics by：Brennen Joy

When it was announced that

Martin Luther King had been killed

I think every black person just froze

In their tracks and in their minds

They were saying

Where we go from here

It gave you joy just to hear him quote the sentence

I have a dream

It did something to your whole body

Just went from the top of

Your head to the bottom of your feet

And you would say

This is Martin Luther King he's speaking

And we have to sit down and listen

And enjoy what he's saying

And I'd love to see what you'd call a utopia

Everybody getting along in peace joy happiness

I'm sure fifty years from now

I won't be here to see it

But this would be my hope for my grandchildren

And their children and their children to come

And we just pray that God will continue to bless

Learn to love love love each other

Regardless of the situation
