Hatred Is Overrated

Whats with all the bull I've been hearing?
Whats with all the crap your spouting
To each other because of your viewpoints
Why you gotta be at each other's throats?
If you ask me-All this hate is bull!

One argues that he's right
The other argues he's wrong
They go back and forth
Its no longer an argument
Its an all out fight!
No matter where you see it

On the streets of your city
On social media all over
Bashing each other
Trolling one another
Just to make a point.

All I see is pointlessness
Your just sparking hate
With a piece of discrimination
Sparking a pile of crap
That creates an inferno of hate.

Whats all this crap 
Democrats and Republicans
Who's in the red and who's in the blue?
Who is antitrump and who supports trump?
Total B.S. if you ask me!

There are better things to side with
Better things to argue over
Then silly political crap
Such as which is better
Ketchup or Mustard
You put on your burger?

Should we get into a rumble
When we ditz one another
Just because were different?
If fruit were all the same
We wouldn't have fruit salads.

We may be different on the outisde
But inside we all have the same blood
We all have the same soul
Even if we all got different personalities
Were all human beings 
No matter where were from.

All this hatred and misery
All this discrimination
All this prejudice
All this crap!
Hatred is so overrated!

We see it all over the news
We see it all over the socials
We see it in real life
We see it all over!

If we let hatred divide us
We can't see how united
We can learn to better
Understand one another
And put aside differences.

Replace the hate with love
Replace selfish with selfless
Replace discriminate with appreciate
Replace prejudice with acceptance.

Time to toss hatred in the trash
Time to raise the flag on love
Time to put aside differences
Time to unite for a better tomorrow!
