Color

Whether you’re black, white, red or tan

We come from the same place

Our heart is the same

We share the same world

We may look different, but we are still the same.

Color? Is this the issue?

Well, it shouldn’t be

Blacks fought for their freedom, some died for it

So why our world is still stuck on Color?

I don’t know, but I do know

We should open our heart

Let the words of Martin Luther King, Dr. W.E.B. Dubois, Frederick Douglas,

And so many others that came before us

Ring in our hearts, ready to burst out at any racism

Let the people of our nation know that

We won’t just stand around anymore and let people of society tell us what racism is

Because all they want us to believe is that it’s color?
