People look down,
Because their words aren't right.
People look down,
Because they feel bad.
People look down,
Because they simply need to stare.
People look down,
Because they are not the same.
People need to stop looking down at those with Downs,
Because their unique.
People need to stop looking down at those with Downs,
Because they understand.
People need to stop looking down at those with Downs,
Because they feel.

Truth is they are not different,
just unique.
Truth is they are not different,
just trying to enjoy life.
Truth is they are stronger then we are.
We need to stop looking down at those with Downs.
