Settle Down

Brother Moses wasn’t born to settle down
Brother Moses wasn’t born to settle down, settle down
He was born to rise
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
Brother Martin wasn’t born to settle down
Brother Martin wasn’t born to settle down, settle down
He was born to rise
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
Like angels whose feet never touch the ground
How could they ever know
How their good words could still resound
So long after they go
Sister Rosa wasn’t born to settle down
Sister Rosa wasn’t born to settle down, settle down
She was born to rise
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
Which among us was born to settle down
Which among us was born to settle down, settle down
We were born to rise
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
Like relief to the cure, like the shore to the water line
