Ashamed

What a shallow world we live in 
 Wherever you turn
 People judge a person
 From the littlest things
 To the huge "normal" crap
 Why you ask
 Cause its a learned
 Its bigotry, its disgusting 
 I'm not innocent here either
 I have in my lifetime 
 Been on the wrong the side 
 Be honest to yourself 
 You have too
 I do know how it feels
 To be on both sides of it 
 Not good either way
 So ashamed 
 Now I say
 We can change the world together 
 By helping ourselves and others
 To love 
 Love comes in all different colors
 Pick one 
 Let's do it 
 Damn it!
