Magic Trick,

Growing up in a racist world
Doesn't matter if your a boy or a girl
It will never change, it's all the same 
People enjoy inflicting pain  
Hurt feeling's for saying the wrong word 
People really are disturbed
It was bad, but now it's worse 
The past is a horrific curse 
People protest and scream and yell 
Living in their own personal hell
Keep trying to find a fix
Emotions are extremely mixed
It's all a massive magic trick
