The Same

Can livin in an insane place
while fighting to be sane
have anything to do with race
or is it in your brain
the curse to think you dont fit in
is truely not a curse
like i am seen as anything
while writing down this verse
perhaps its not your physical
that dictates who you are
whereas its universal pull
like planets near a star
so next time when you walk the land
and see another kind
remember, all the same, we stand
like stars up in the sky
