happy birthday dr. king

there are 2 songs that i must always listen to on this, my favorite holiday, martin luther king jr day. they are both somewhat cheesy, but they give me chills everytime.

some lyrics.

Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride!

-u2, pride (in the name of love)



I just never understood
How a man who died for good
Could not have a day that would
Be set aside for his recognition
Because it should never be
Just because some cannot see
The dream as clear as he
That they should make it become an illusion
And we all know everything
That he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing
Thanks to Martin Luther King

Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday

-stevie wonder, happy birthday

may the dream continue to live.
