Don't Let the Fire Die

We lit the fire for Martin when he died
We lit the fire for Martin when he died
We lit the fire for Martin but we let it go out
We lit the fire for Martin when he died
We lit the fire for Carole when she died
We lit the fire for Addie when she died
We lit the fire for Cynthia and for Denise
We lit the fire when they died
There were no fires for Emmet when he died
There were no fires for Helen when she died
There were no fires for oh so many more
We let the fire die

Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Keep it burning fan those flames
Don't let the fire die

We lit the fire for Michael when he died
We lit the fire for Breonna when she died
We light the fire for Elijah as he dies
Don't let the fire die
We need to learn to love one another
We need to listen too
We can't close our eyes and our ears
Don't let the fire die

Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Keep it burning fan those flames
Don't let the fire die

Sometimes we get it hot
Sometimes we get it right
Sometimes we let the fire go out
We forget why were alive

Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Keep it burning fan those flames
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Keep it burning fan those flames
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Keep it burning fan those flames
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
