CONTRAST
What is it about our race issues
And hatred towards each other today
It`s the twenty-first century
By now we should have found our way
Is it that our past regression
And all of the supression
Set forth a situation that is here to stay
Always too hard to forgive
When free to be yourself you cannot live
We must strive to get over our past
Forgive but not forget, for a fonder future to last
With a little bit of love, and less push and shove
There is hope that we can live in harmony
Or at the very least to not be harassed
Over having a little
