I Wonder

I wonder if Martin was alive now

Would he be proud

I wonder if Malcolm was alive now

Would he be proud

Would he be

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things oh these are the things

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things

Oh Oooh...

I wonder if Martin was alive now

Would he be proud

I wonder if Malcolm was alive now

Would he be proud

Would he be

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things oh these are the things

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things, these are the things

These are the things that keep me up at night

These are the things

After the water's been waded

and the dogs been shook

and we still gotta reckon

the cost this took?

We've got to inherit this earth we built

Our blues, this it's velvet, electric

It glows

A new song I feel it

All in it

It's love

It's music

It's weed

It's a takeover truth

We lived what the work was

We felt the past fall short

We seen leaders struck down

We know what a word's worth

This griot vocation

It's changing the frame

How we look to the future

Claim the past without shame

Hear Martin say

Look

Hear Malcolm say

Now

We built ones who see us who lift us and yes

We lighter, freer, grateful

And we ain't finna rest

I wonder

If Martin could see us

If Malcolm could see us

Would they be proud?

I wonder

I wonder

I wonder
