Cycle of Hate


Cycle of Hate

They say human beings are all the same

But really, we’re not

We all have skin and bones and hair

But the things that go on in our minds

That’s what makes us different

 

But some people don’t like that

They call us names, hit us, and belittle us

They do everything in their power to bring us down

People say it’s because they’re insecure themselves

But if that were true, then they would understand

 

They would understand the things we go through

From being pushed around by them, to pushed around at home

It’s a never ending cycle of them against us

But sometimes, someone has to step up

And put an end to the cycle of hate
