Forever Changing the World


M- otivation O- ptimism V- oices E- quality M- artin Luther King Jr. E- nthusiasm N- on violence T- ogether We Stand Discrimination, Segregation, Inequality. To all Blacks, To everyone who didn't have a 'white' face. All were mistreated All were looked down upon Some were murdered Others tortured All were living in hell on Earth. Then came along Martin Luther King Jr. Forever changing the world He had braveness and courage Stood up for what was right for him and others, Stood up for what he believed in Forever changing the world Allowed blacks to gain dignity and respect for themselves again Changing history as we know it Forever changing the world He organized several movements and boycotts All to get his point across He, now, was the big boss Forever changing the world Speaking out and telling his dream To all, they believed! Forever chaning the world Whites felt threatened and felt they didn't have control So, He shot down a wold wide leader Killed him with no remorse Forever changing the world But no! Blacks lost no hope Kept Kings dream alive and continued fighting for what they deserved Now today, discrimination, segregation, and inequality are no more We all are united together Forever changing the World.
