What Would Happen If

Those from the East
Those from the West
Came together and all shook hands

Those from the North
Those from the South
Decided they should hug it out

Those from the Right
Those from the Left
Forgot all the hateful words they've said

Those that are Black
Those that are White
Found each other to be important in life

Those that are Rich
Those that are Poor
Knocked down the social barriers and opened the door

Those that are Beautiful
Those that are not
Looked on the inside instead of the out

What would happen if...

~All of this happened~
