Racist Assumptions
You're a sick witch
Do you realize what you've done?
The family doesn't trust him
Now that you've gone and said something dumb
I see the looks they give him
And he didn't even want to come
But at that one Hanukah party
You had a bit too much fun
I know what you really are
You're a racist with no soul
Just because my dad is dark
You wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole
Yes, I am fairer than he is
He may be darker, but you're heart is coal
If you want to be proud of yourself, go ahead
Because your idiocy has taken its toll
You think you're better because you're white
But the truth is there is no such thing as race
We are all humans and we are all one family
And that is the reality you have to face
I'll scream at the top of my lungs, need be
Bind my hands, fill my eyes with mace
My father would never hurt me, you racist jerk
The only thing he'd ever do is give me an embrace
