We Shall Overcome - Malcolm X Last Speech Lyrics

In... in this life there's so much distraction it seems to consume my mind.
All the time that I've spent on nothing, it could make an endless line.
The shortness of our time in this life should cause an urgency, a passion for what lasts.
Eternity is the line that we must cast... cast.
This is the line our hearts' blood must sign...
This is the line our hearts' blood must sign...
to be completely sold out, to firmly plant our feet, to stand,
to never compromise our stance and lift the weak when they can't stand... stand.
This song is my profession. These words you hear are mine.
This life is not my own life. This is my heart's resign... resign.
This is my heart's resign. This is my heart's resign.
This is my heart's resign. This is my heart's resign
