Different

People fear what they dont understand
they judge those who are different, who decide to make a stand
Because we walk to a different beat
Because our religion is different, they dont see

We believe in similar things
We honor nature, we pray everyday
We accept you for who you are
Dont we deserve the same?
This barrier should be torn down, and i think i know where to start
Listen if you dare, venture into the unknown

Take my hand, i wont let you go
I will show you a world where dreams comes true
I will show you what it means to be one with all
If what you see scares you, push it aside

Join me if you will
Into the path of unknown
Show me your heart,
And i will show you your dreams
