A man born many years ago
Many obstacles before him
That was laid down long before
In a country that was young
Many mistakes were made
This man grew into manhood
He fought the mistakes that were made
All because of a nation that could not become color blind
Every person is an equal
Regardless of color or ethnic background
He had a dream of equality for all
Walked many miles until
That fatal day when he was gunned down
For this showed the nation still had not grown up
And accept everyone is equal
This dream still lives
For some day it will be fulfilled
And this nation will finally accept that all
Are equal
And this dream of equality will never die
For the Dream Still Lives

For Martin Luther King, Jr. I was young, when he gave the speech and remember the time of his assassination.
