Racism

There’s racism in our world
In our world today,
It’s based on your colour
But technically we are all the same

For your colour doesn’t define you
only your personality will people chase
Did you know we are all people?
And Yes, we are here to stay
So please just stop being racist
Because God made us in this way

Black and White why doesn’t it mix
I guess we’ll never know
the pain people experience, the hatred they feel
and to be tormented, Yes, I know it’s real.

So, let’s stand up together as one,
God made us like this to be together and have fun.
