Racism
You hate because I'm different
you tease me because I'm strange
why don't you try to see the meaning
behind my ways
You judge me by my fade race
The color of my face
you say because I'm different
that I am a disgrace
Why don't you just stop you stares
you're only doing this because you're scare
Why don't you forget racism
an like me for who I am
I can't change my race
or the color of my face
so I guess you'll just have to like
me because I'm me
Things will work out aright
you'll just have to see
