Song Lyrics
what s gonna happen now
Everybody knows we re on the brink, now that the king is dead Dead), you know what freedom is for one moment of your life
what will happen
What will happen, now that the king of love is dead Simone, what will happen
but he had seen the mountaintop
Teach your people, folks you d better stop and think
Even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is, you know what freedom is for one moment of your life, what will happen
always living with the threat of death ahead
Even at that one moment that ya know what life is, even if they have to die
teach your people
Now that the king is dead, what will happen, what will happen
It s all right, but he had seen the mountaintop, what will happen
Cause you know what life is, and kill with guns and burn don t you know how we gotta react
You know what freedom is for one moment of your life, even at that one moment that ya know what life is
Even at that one moment that ya know what life is, and he knew he could not stop
My people are rising they re living in lies, even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is, always living with the threat of death ahead
will they ever learn
teach your people
In all of our cities, you know what freedom is for one moment of your life Is, always living with the threat of death ahead
Even if they have to die, even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is Of, even at that one moment that ya know what life is
Always living with the threat of death ahead, now that the king is dead, what will happen
But he had seen the mountaintop, but he had seen the mountaintop
you know what freedom is for one moment of your life
But he had seen the mountaintop, folks you d better stop and think Simone, you know what freedom is for one moment of your life
But he had seen the mountaintop, folks you d better stop and think, but he had seen the mountaintop
Cause you know what life is, and kill with guns and burn don t you know how we gotta react, but he had seen the mountaintop
even at that one moment that ya know what life is
And kill with guns and burn don t you know how we gotta react, and he knew he could not stop, even if they have to die
you know what freedom is for one moment of your life
even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is
even at that one moment that ya know what life is
what will happen
it s all right
Everybody knows we re on the brink, my people are rising they re living in lies, will they ever learn
we can all she d tears it won t change a thing
It s all right, what will happen
But he had seen the mountaintop, even at that one moment that ya know what life is Of, will they ever learn
everybody knows we re on the brink
