Choose Hate Or Love, Choose Dark Or Light

We are at are lowest when we fight.
We kill love when we hate.
Do we stand on their wall and throw their bricks?
Or do we welcome life, no matter what colour or creed through our gates?

They want us to turn on ourselves and fight. Like wild animals destroy our hearts, destroy our minds. They want us to find reasons to hate. 
They want to destroy our nations pride. 

History tells of the courage our DNA does not need to find.

As a people I know we will not fade into their darkest light.
