A Sickness With So Much Thickness
There's a sickness we all share
That's happening everywhere
Finding it in every place
And it is such a disgrace
Every city and small town
Has this sickness all around
There's no medicine or pills
That will cure this useless ill
Which is plaguing everyone
Something big needs to be done
Before and outbreak starts to spread
Which can lead to so much dread
We need to learn to control
This feeling deep down in our soul
That is burning with emotion
Leading to so much commotion
As our children see that we
Keep repeating history
Teaching them that it is fine
To keep this going down the line
Instead of finally breaking chains
That's causing torture and pain
We need to stop this awful illness
That's hateful and prejudice
