No Rhyme, No Reason
Where is the rhyme; where is the reason
Discrimination takes many forms
Cultural differences enrich us
Why should others conform to our norms
Religion’s often the cause of wars
Each should be free to worship their way
Where is the rhyme; where is the reason
Judge others not by the way they pray
Red, yellow, black, brown colors of skin
All of us have hearts, feelings and souls
Where is the rhyme; where is the reason
When racial barriers hinder goals
Politicians cast public needs aside
Point fingers with charges of treason
Independent thinking is needed
Where is the rhyme; where is the reason
