A dream deferred not true

Oh, radiant hope, thy name is justice fair,

A beacon strong, dispelling dark despair.

Through trials deep, we rise with steadfast might,

For in our hearts, the flame of truth ignites.

From history's chains, we claim our rightful place,

A symphony of colors, bound by grace.

No longer shadows cast by hatred's hand,

But unity and love, across the land.

Oh, sweet pursuit of justice, long overdue,

In every heart, your song forever true.

Together we stand, hand in hand we fight,

For racial justice, in its glorious light.
