Born January 15th 1929
He was against injustice wherever it streamed
America just didn't seem to align
And Martin thought of a small dream
Not separate but equal instead
Martin started the movement called the Civil Rights
Together a sense of freedom widespread
When America was in darkness Martin created rays of light
April 4th 1968 pulls the strings of my heart
He was shot on the balcony of his motel
All those lives he touched, it was hard seeing him depart
The speeches he told were knew so well
So whenever you feel like you can't accomplish something or it seems to extreme
Always remember that the Civil Rights movement of equality started out as a small dream
