Daniel's Plea

Racism can be a thing of the past
It cannot last
If we all band together
We can stand as one forever.
We all need to respect people's rights
Whether they be day or night
So show people the respect they deserve
So the future of our children can be preserved.
We all have been given the right to be free
So this is something we all should agree
If we all treat people like sisters and brothers
We need to obey this law and no other.
We can make this world a better place
If we can teach people to look beyond their race
We all hold the future in our hands
So let's love one other and make a better land.
