Differences

I look at you I look at me There is no difference In what I see. We are both people We are both alive We were both born In 1945. But I am black And you are white But why must I Fight for my rights? What is so different between me and you what do I have to be me And you have to be you? Why can't it be us Together, as one Both united under the same sun. Equality should be given not something you earn which is something I have learned. I look at you I look at me The only difference is That you are free.
