Human Pride

If we could see the world united
drop prejudice and go unsighted
let go our status for it divides
appreciate the humankind 

When we hate those not alike
we let hate grow act unkind
unpleasant days tortured minds
we learn it ends then rewinds 

To those who were not yet alive
whom too get lost in image and pride 
cause of division taking sides 
war, lives, dies, painful if survived

No creature is truly evolved 
when it’s own cycle has a hold 
and too sighted but still unsolved
there’s no advance like we are told

We need unity in race and nation
tolerance but not of discrimination 
belief respect and mutual trust 
common ground here on Earth crust

Straight or on the other bus
skin belief we’re one are us
Unite as one with no divide
for human race for human pride
