The Last Step
The human is still struggling
Slavery was ended... we overcame that
Discrimination still stands in the way
Seeking different forms it can make of itself
Women were given free rights- rose above it
But some still suffer in the dark it surrounds them in
Isolated in groups based off of being their true self
Innocent lives struggling to hold on
To the ways they were taught to grow up from
trusted family
Based off of beliefs they are keeping to themselves
Still punished for it
Physically and emotionally
Punished for not speaking
Simply because others view them as different
Not even considering that they are viewed as
different themselves
The human, the world
Is one place
Of love, but full
Of hate
Lets's end discrimination for all
For it is the last step
To releasing the true meaning
Of freedom
And happiness.
