Black And White America Lyrics

by Lenny Kravitz

Martin Luther King, he had a vision
And that's a fact
He died so we could see that was his mission
So don't look back

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e65315-lenny_kravitz~black_and_white_america__lyrics.html ]
There is no division, don't you understand?
The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

In 1963 my father married
A black woman
And when they walked the streets they were in danger
Look what you've done

But they just kept on walking forward hand in hand
The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

We've waited so long
We've waited so long

Black and white America

There is no division, don't you understand?
The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

The future looks as though it has come around
And maybe we have finally found our common ground
We're the children of one father
If you're looking back don't bother
We're black and white America

Oh, yeah
Black and white America
Gonna keep on moving forward, oh
Blow Harold!
