Equality

Do not ever give a simple prejudice
Or making it based on what you conceived
The world is filled of questions
And you are fighting to protect your own opinion 
Even though you are uncertain with the reason 
Yet the answer is still an illusion 

Equality…
Talking about living in the world of men
Inequality is a daily food for the women
The gender is a hard evidence to rip it out
To rip the power of being equally treats
Women are fighting for not being mentally abused
Or being physically harassed 
Talking about the women in the world of men

Equality… 
Racism is not just a simple epidemic
All about the stereotype are indicated to divide
White, black, yellow, red, brown whatever you called us
It’s just a camouflage to describe the variety of beings
But the thought sometimes killed
Discrimination is like a holocaust
A bomb that happened from time to time
Why don’t you take a look at yourself?
Are you God or uncontaminated from sins
And guarantee that heaven is you last home
You are wrong…for being narrow-mindedness

A being has to learn
To learn to understand
To understand what to believe
Because believing is gold
Gold of knowledge
Knowledge of wise
Wise in thinking
Thinking that all beings are equal
And equality is the key of tolerance
Better keep that in mind
