Observing the victim, a distance away
Calculating actions, soon to set aim
Confirming the target in the light of day
To eradicate the agitator once and for all
Preparing for murder in the first degree
1968 in Memphis, Tennessee

Murder in the first degree
Sentenced to a life-time of misery
Murder in the first degree
The only solution he could see
Murder in the first degree
Obstructed by the Zionist tyranny

A sense of pride within to the core
Military discipline to spur him on
Heaven or Hell, no difference anymore
In spite of death, he knows he has won
Funeral bells are soon to ring
For the death of Martin Luther King

The eyes of the observer are burning bright
A finger on the trigger, smile on his face
Cocking the rifle with Luther in sight
To end his life for the noble race
In remembrance we hold that summer's day
In remembrance we hold James Earl Ray
