In Differences United

"We are no different"- they said,
looking for reason to divide instead
The biggest ile I was told
is that every life matters... ditto
Black, Mexican, Yellow, White 
they made us think only one is right

But is it true? Is it though?
Or is it just easier to hate than let go?
forget about past, have a fresh start,
open our eyes to reality around
rewrite that was written with hate; disrespect
unite as four equal and our rights - protect
