I Have a Dream

Unlike Martin Luther King Junior I am not a black man but I also have a dream I also dream about equality the love of a world that care's, for all of it's people I also am a Christian in a world that needs to find love All men should stand up to speak against inequality to speak against injustice to pass the hand of friendship poverty holds suffering and transgression in it's arms driving the world into anger and pain, our children onto drugs Stand tall and become a man refuse to waste your lives with guns refuse to waste your lives on violence education holds the path to success A friend of mine that is dark skinned said all of her friends want the office jobs yet wealth and success come on the back bone of hard work If a man takes a job as a cleaner the wage still provides the money to improve your education knowledge is power the road to success The colour of your skin does not stop you Eddy Murphy, Oprah Winfrey, Obama and thousands more have found success doctors nurses business men Poverty has your children turning to drugs anger has them turning to violence violence has them going to prison I meet a man at the train station who said I hate the blacks I asked him why and he said six of them held a knife to me and demanded money When you pick up a gun or attack a man with a knife you encourage discrimination when you respect people and earn a career you encourage the world to have respect for you
