Pride in The Name of Love

The song describes different people who have come and acted in the name of love, including one who crawled on barbed wire and another who was betrayed with a kiss. It references Martin Luther King Jr., describing the early morning shot that rang out and took his life in Memphis, though they could not take his pride. The chorus repeats the refrain of acting in the name of love.
