Let My People Go
I was once told that I sin, because the color of my skin.
To the world we live on, not in.
Complexes our diverted souls from within.
Hear the words of God, for they are never ending.
From the righteousness of Baby Jesus,
To his descending.
To these words once spoken, “Let my people go!”
Racism is finally ending!
Commending and spreading,
For the future color kids attending.
If it wasn’t for yesterday, there would be no today.
A gifted soul lifted to heaven,
Stopping halfway.
Looking down at his family, the change, The USA.
Who believed in equality?
We celebrate his name today.
He was a great leader, a warrior of wise words.
Change the moment he had a dream,
A dream that was heard.
Across the nation.
An inspiration.
Now we stand as one.
God’s creation.
