Culture


Let's take a hop into someones culture

Go deeper than their race

Let's ask a name 

Not assume by their face

Let's look deeper than their skin color

And their clothing choice too

Let's take a trip and make a new friend

Because they are not all responsible for the last bombing or two

We assume because we haven't seen anything different growing up

It's always the same here in the USA

We plead for change and dream of equality

But in the end it's all about the white rich man.
