My friend had said
Oh! Father
What color
My eyes my skin's shades
Of many MELATONIN (what)
I have a white mother
And yet my father's
black
From what am I
What race am I
They say they hate you for the color of your skin and that you're not like them
Nationality I be if my father's shade
And my mother's White then what am I
What am I if my great-great great great grandmother was raped
By a white slave owner
like "MJ said doesn't matter if you're black or white"
It's about your heart's content
For let us rally together you and I
And the Father of Heaven
They say they hate you for the color of your skin and that you're not like them
Let us be his people His children all colors
And let all faces of all races of all earth spaces
Love
In spite of our different colors
Let's send nature's discrimination and prejudice
Be put down for in the endless stand
Before his miscued wrong choices
Stifle are golden voices
Our faces chard and Miss figured
Those bad races caucasians calling us n******
They say they hate you for the color of your skin and that you're not like them
We the people who are on the color of blue in the range of purple gray bronze black
How would you feel now if you're family member
Was the same color as the one you hate most
Realize this we are many different talents
There are many different shades
We should be just God's children and
Together be sisters and brother
And be well behaved for our creator Father is the creator of all colors
And it doesn't matter what shade we are
Or even though God is creator of all God is more than just a color God
For the rainbow is his promise to us all
But yet and still the evil one the hate the color of my tone
they say they hate you for the color of your skin and that you're not one of them
