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

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

In nineteen sixty three
My father married
A black woman
And when they walked the street
They were in danger
Look what'cha done
But they just kept on walking forward
Hand in hand

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

We've waited so long
We've waited so long...

There is no division
Don't you understand

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America
