Don'T Lose the Race
All these racists, wish they could erase us
They got baseless cases, scared of different faces
Chase this idea they've been done wrong
Singing a long song, how they're trodden upon
But i'm not going along, trying to excite and incite
Hate isn't right, don't think your light shines too bright
No one race is misplaced, and it won't help your case
When you chase an ideal that's sadly distaste
Put yourself in another man's place, walk a mile in his shoes
Your confused, we've all paid our dues and suffered abuse
At one time or another, in the end we are brothers
Share a moment with others, and pull back the covers
Learn with concern, and you'll earn a degree
Of humanity, insanity is not wanting to see
Why walk through life, with such strife, with a knife or a bat
It's not meant to be that, get a grasp and we'll laugh
Share a meal, tell stories and express how we feel
And realize with widened eyes, no surprise, Hate isn't real
