looking beyond the known.


wonder why there has to be hate, you create and don't appreciate,

black or white, hispanic or asian, brown or mix?

is that the trick?

while walking down some hallways and alleys,

hearing all the comments wanted me to run a protest rally.

are you rich is that the cut off?

do not underestimate or look above because I or them might be richer and stronger,

not reacting and staying calm; we know how to lock down anger longer.

look beyond the known and know ignorance is never okay,

arrogance kills and just know people are not afraid of you they just laugh at your sillyness

this is childish maybe we can all grow up look above and beyod,

hold hands

make a team rise for peace

that is my dream.

lets help eahother and spread the love

each one of us deserves the best

then let God judge the rest!
