Differences
What causes discord amongst us
Diverse religions, lack of trust
Adversity coursing through our veins
And dogma embedded in our brains
We’re born so innocent and naïve
But disappointed, we do leave
The dearth of harmony and of peace
Will cause dissension to increase
Divergent races
Different cultures
Contrasting viewpoints we encounter
This leads to destruction
And turns to pain
So rivalry and hatred will remain
Let’s change misunderstanding
And let acceptance reign
Because we’re the same in eyes of God
And let humanity shine
There really is no difference
We all want the same things
Be good to one another
And kindness, this will spring
