Why must


Why must we hurt one another 

why must we fight fight 

why must we hate and go to bed agree at night 

Why must we cheat, steal, and kill 

Some say life is a midget so you gotta live it up, but does that come at the cost of others 

why must we take and lie to our mothers, considering they created us 

why must the prettiest people say the ugliest things 

 But that's life though as the human race we try to put each other down to get to the next step in our own lives 

 I'm here wondering what it would take for us as brothers and sisters in Christ to realize our worth

Why must I get stop because of my race and what kin of car I drive why 

why can't people see passed my outside appearance and look on the inside  

why must we judge others on there fault knowing we have committed similar ones 

Why must is the question
