Martin Luther King, he had a vision (and that’s a fact) He died so we could see that was his mission (so don’t look back) There is no division, don’t you understand?
Chorus: The future looks as though it has come around And maybe we have finally found our common ground We’re the children of our father, if you’re looking back Obama We’re black and white America
In 1963 my father married (a black woman) And when they walked the streets they were in danger (look what you’ve done) But they just kept on walking forward hand in hand
Chorus (2 times)
We’ve waited so long We’ve waited so long
Black and white America
There is no division, don’t you understand?
Chorus (3 times)
Black and white America Gonna keep a-moving forward
