TAKING A STAND FOR THIS CIVIL RIGHTS SLAM


In the hearts of many We hold an affinity For the man who took a stand The King who created a plan Brought his dreams to our home land Although his life was taken His words were not mistaken The fight was long The fight was dirty For Civil rights we stand sturdy Through segregation Colored discrimination And hurtful confrontation Theres a lack of understanding we all stand under one nation
