discrimination


Black or white is it really worth the fight

Why push people down for simply walking around

You laugh when they fall, then cry when they arise

Its time to move on and open our eyes

Accept that we are who we are,

Not based on our colour but on our heart

So if  you see them fall down 

Dont laugh were past discriminating by now,

Pick your head up be strong,

Help them regain what was rightfully their own

It's 2023 surely we can look past our nationality

It's far too late for racism and hate. 

Don't get me started on our gender beliefs

So what  if he wants to be called a she

Love if love so don't be deceived

Those who hate the unique beings

It's time to learn that it's not worth the pain

Of calling someone out for being gay

Because who someone loves is irrelevant today.
