Pride, In the Name of Love Lyrics

[Intro: John Legend]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1: John Legend]
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come, he justify
One man to overthrow

[Chorus: John Legend]
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?

[Verse 2: John Legend]
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss

[Chorus: John Legend]
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?

[Post-Chorus: John Legend]
Ohh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3: John Legend]
Late afternoon, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

[Chorus: John Legend]
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
In the name of love
What more in the name of love?
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Outro: Barack Obama]
Dr King once said that the art of the whole universe is long, but it bends towards justice. It bends towards justice, but here's the thing. It does not bend on its own
