I understand the sadness, but it's time to lift our eyes. Let them bring on the dogs and the fire hoses and the baseball bats and even the cop's bullets. We will not fall.
To borrow the words of the great man . . .
Still we rise.

.I can only be who I am. Speak in my own voice... So I apologize for the melonchaly tone.
I just wanted to show respect and share a song that not enough people are familiar with.
