Speak truth to power, like MLK
The FBI had him in their sights.
That didn’t stop Martin
from saying what’s right,
doing what’s right,
moving toward Light.
Speak truth to power, like MLK.
Speak, don’t be afraid:
They can kill the body,
they can’t kill the soul.
Don't give up,
let courage grow.
Speak truth to power, like MLK:
inconvenient truth
like the violence of empire
is its own demise.
How history has proved
that he prophesied!
Uncle Sam...
left Vietnam.
History repeats...
in the Middle East.
But empires can reverse,
and put love first.
See peace break out
and rise like a wave.
Love will rule,
lies will fade:
Speak truth to power, like MLK.
