The Fight


The fight is strong

The will is weak

We want the same

We want a leader to rise up

We want the war to stop

We see no where to hide

The fight will not stop

We are killed

We are stereotyped

Our fight was over

So we thought

The anger is back

The prejudice is back

We are all people

We are afraid

We search for our leader

The fight is coming

Are we ready?
