Martim Awakes
Sometimes words can burn like Arizona in the summer
Martin had a dream but what happens after his slumber
I wonder the damage that it would do to his mind
To wake up and see the filth he would find
Would he think his efforts went to waste
Or would he ridicule with blistening haste
Do you think that her imagined our words for our women to be so vile
Did he imagine us to live such amateur lives and yet be profiled
Did he expect false leaders to say that they are doing his work but remain in their vanity
It is certain that this world would strretch the limit of his sanity
Or we really oacting on a dream that was instilled
Is a Black Man in a white house really how the dream will be fulfilled
The world is not what Martin taught, quite opposite to be exact
Because if this was his dream, he was better off being an insomniac
