When

when will we have justice 
 when will we have peace 
 when will our equal rights not be decreased
 when we seek for the truth all we get is rejection 
 when we will be excepted 
 for who we are 
 for our individual qualities, and brilliance 
 when will everyone look at everyone else for the better and not the worst 
 when will the day come that we won't have to stress, just express the love and exceptance
 the day that we give our people a chance 
 there people a chance 
 when will that day come 
 June 23, 1994 
 Justice was born 
 and here I am now
