๐ Lyrics
We've stated before that the whole program is dedicated to his memory
But this tune is written about him, and for him and so
We had yesterday to learn it and so we'll see
What's gonna happen now in all of our cities?
My people are rising; they living in lies
Even if they have to die
Even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is
Even at that one moment that ya know what life is
If you have to die, it's all right
Cause you know what life is
You know what freedom is for one moment of your life
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King is dead
We can all shed tears; it won't change a thing
Teach your people will they ever learn?
Must you always kill with burn and burn with guns
And kill with guns and burn don't you know how we gotta react?
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King of love is dead
But this tune is written about him, and for him and so
We had yesterday to learn it and so we'll see
What's gonna happen now in all of our cities?
My people are rising; they living in lies
Even if they have to die
Even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is
Even at that one moment that ya know what life is
If you have to die, it's all right
Cause you know what life is
You know what freedom is for one moment of your life
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King is dead
We can all shed tears; it won't change a thing
Teach your people will they ever learn?
Must you always kill with burn and burn with guns
And kill with guns and burn don't you know how we gotta react?
But he had seen the mountaintop
And he knew he could not stop
Always living with the threat of death ahead
Folks you better stop and think
Everybody knows we're on the brink
What will happen, now that the King of love is dead
