Just Be
Black, white
wrong, right
straight, gay
night, day
meek, freak
open, sneak
Would it be easier without labels?
Could we just say I am that I am
Who I am because I am...God's child!
Rich, poor
faithful, whore
corrupt, pure
professional, amateur
mom, dad
good, bad
strong, weak
homely, street
Could we learn just to be?
and not hurt anybody?
