Lyrics

On a cold January morning dreams echo in the frost
Martin stood for justice in a world all but lost
Now the winds have changed their coarse blowing flags of discontent
As we face uncertain futures wondering where our peace went

In the heartlands quiet fields where the corn and cattle grow
Voices pray a silent prayer for the country they used to know
From the mountains to the valleys every small town feels the strain
As our hopes ride on the whisper beneath the winter rain

Chorus
Where do we go from here in the shadow of the dawn
Can we mend what's broken or all our better days all gone
Together we must gather hands held strong and true
For the dream that Martin preached
A world that's just and new

Mommas by the window with a tear in her eye
Daddy's working overtime watching the bills pile high
Children hear the chatter of a world that's lost its way
As they sing the songs of freedom for a brighter better day
In the halls of power, echoes of the past
Martins words still linger can they make a change that lasts
We stand upon a precipice with heats laid bare and wide
Seeking solace in our neighbors hope we find our guide

Chorus
