Mega Ran - 306 lyrics

"We've got some difficult days ahead, but it
Really doesn't matter with me now
Because I've been to the Mountaintop"

Touched down in Tennessee around 10 to 3
If memory serves me correct
It was a rainy day in April
Thankful, that we made it but wondering
Why folks are so hateful
They talked about bomb threats
Had my mom stressed i told her get a grip
But even my palms sweat
I'm unsure of what the future holds
I'd like to live a long life
But really what can you control
And living like a coward is a foolish goal
If I got the roc, I gotta take it to the hole
Take the charge for my people cuz
I been to the Mountaintop
And ain't about to stop
Seen the glory and the coming
Ain't worried about nothing cause my time
On this planet is a gift
But, I'm weary and weak, I barely can
Speak so I'm headin to the Lorraine, 306
"I don't mind like anybody I would like to
Live a long life longevity, has it's place
But, I'm not concerned about that now
I just want to do God's
Will, and he has allowed me to go
Up to the Mountain and I've looked
Over and I've seen the Promiseland i
May not get there with you
But, I want you to know tonight that we
As a people will get to the Promiseland"

Memphis is a warzone, the tension's ascending
And things ain't gettin better here
There's no use pretending
Blacks are in the streets
Inciting riots saying
There's no time for non violence
But I don't buy it
So tomorrow I'm leading this protest
I'm so stressed
I just pray we don't see no more death
Sanitation workers being treated unfair
On the strength of
Their skin color and texture of hair
It ain't right, it ain't up for discussion
For evil to triumph
All it takes is for the good to do nothing
We marching
Right into the thick of the front lines
It's stressful
But something got to give at some time
But for tonight I'ma meet with the folks
Good food, good friends, rushed out
But I'm leaving my coat
Shot rings out, I think I'm hit
We need an ambulance, I'm in 306

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have some very
Sad news for all of you
And I think sad news for all of
Our fellow citizens and people who love
Peace all over the world and that is
That Martin Luther King has been
Shot and been killed tonight martin
Luther King dedicated his life
To love and to justice and
To fellow human beings
He died in the cause of
That effort it's a difficult
Day, it's a difficult time
For the United States
Perhaps we are to ask what
Kind of a nation we
Are and what direction we want to move in"
