Break The Sterotypes


they don't like you because your white
 
they don't like me because i'm black
 
do they not understand were human
 
they don't like him because hes gay
 
they don't like her because shes bi 
 
do they not see how much we cry
 
they dont like you because your hair is short
 
they dont like me because im tall
 
do they not see how bad we try to fit in like them all 
 
they don't understand how much we cry 
 
they don't even stand up to say hi
 
we try so hard to fit in
 
but do we really want to
 
is that what we want to go through?
 
do we want to treat people how they treated us?
 
can we just stick together
 
here give me your hand
 
forever we can remain friends
