We Are All Born One Way

We are all born one way,
A mum and a dad,
We are all growing the same way.
It’s the one’s who try hard,
Are the ones who go far.
The one's who have a disadvantage,
Have a chance to try harder.
No ethnic background is born with intelligence,
Nor is anyone born dumb,
It takes a good up bringing to become one,
It takes hard work, hours, days and determination.
No one is smart or stupid,
We are all born the same way.
