Lyrics
YOU REMIND ME
(Nkeng Alemanji)
Dr. King you remind me that there?s love for the world
(Verse 1)
A young man leaves Mississippi for a life in New York City
To find a dream he?s had for himself
He passes in the vicinity of the Memorial in D.C.
Where Dr. King dreamed for him and he thinks
(Chorus)
Dr. King you remind me
That there?s love for the world
I have seen you were fighting
so that all could be heard
(Verse 2)
School is a must but I?ve also learned
To read the things they don?t teach
I ultimately think that?s o.k.
I can then be competitive with the notion that mostly
My prowess and my passions will speak
(Chorus)
Dr. King you remind me
That there?s love for the world
I have seen you were fighting
so that all could be heard
(Bridge)
Little kids wake up now
Now you can dream
Little kid wake up now
There?s nothing to be afraid of
Little kids wake up now
There?s nothing that can hold you back - Nothing
(Chorus)
Dr. King you remind me
That there?s love for the world
I have seen you were fighting
so that all could be heard
(Dr. King you remind me that there?s love for the world
a gracious love for the world
I have learned you were fighting so that all could be heard
So that all could be one) ?
