My Skin Versus Yours


My skin versus your skin 

Basically we’re human beings

Black,white, purple, or green 

We’re still human beings

You Bleed ? 

Oh look I bleed too 

Discrimination for what ? 

Come For my skin tone ? That’s where you’re not 

You’re not special due to your skin color 

Slave,niger? That’s not what you’re going to call her 

We are the same

If you think different you should be ashamed 

Open Ya Eyes we’re all human beings
